Riverside Hospital Project Harris County Public Health Main Office Relocation

Move of Harris County Public Health (HCPH) Main Office Operations from its current location at 2223 West Loop South, to the historic Riverside Hospital site at 3204 Ennis St. Key considerations for this move include efficiency, cost effectiveness, accessibility, and location. The retrofited facility is anticipated to provide HCPH with over 80,000 square feet of space for its expanded operations. This relocation effort will allow for HCPH to be better situated within the community, within 3 miles of the Hospital District, and with good access to transit. The move to the Riverside site is anticipated to realize a significant cost savings. The cost savings will come from a reduction in the use of lease space and a reduction in facilities maintenance costs due to new construction. The large footprint at the Riverside site allows for HCPH’s operations to consolidate from many locations to a single space, while still having room to grow. The increased square footage also provides the opportunity to create a space for direct client healthcare services to be administered. In addition to improving collaboration and coordination by consolidating many of HCPH’s functions into one site, there are opportunities for HCPH to partner with Harris Health and Harris Center at the Riverside site to provide primary and specialty care services to underserved/ underinsured communities in Harris County.
