Weston Urban LLC recently purchased the Rand Building, an eight-story office building located at 100 E. Houston St. near the corner of Soledad. The plan is to establish a permanent home for Rackspace Hosting’s Geekdomprogram, the collaborative co-working space for technology entrepreneurs. The program provides shared office space and mentoring for high-tech start-ups.
The building’s previous owner, Frost Bank, will lease back all but two floors of the building from Weston Urban for two years before vacating it completely in spring 2015. Renovations on the building will begin this fall and Geekdom should be ready to move into the building by early 2014.
Geekdom is currently located at the Weston Centre, another office building owned by Weston. However, with this new space, Geekdom will be able to double the size of its current footprint.
