MetroNational is a privately-held real estate investment, development, and management company headquartered in Houston, Texas. Each MetroNational property, spanning office, retail, restaurant, hospitality and healthcare, fully integrates MetroNational’s best-of-class services, providing the highest quality and enduring value. The Company, which was founded in 1954, owns and manages more than 10 million square feet of commercial real estate properties primarily located in Greater Houston. MetroNational’s largest development is Memorial City located in West Houston.

In 1959, MetroNational’s founder, Joseph Johnson, purchased approximately 200 acres in West Houston, a raw acreage far from downtown Houston. Joe felt there was potential for the area, and that instinct proved prophetic. Starting in 1962, MetroNational developed a ‘city within a city’ known as Memorial City. After the Mall opened, Joe focused on other amenities that the community would need. In 1971, MetroNational opened Memorial City General Hospital.

Today, the ‘city within a city’ is 300 acres of Class A office space; retail centers, including Memorial City Mall, a 1.7-million-square-foot super regional center; the Memorial Hermann Memorial City Medical Center (the region’s second largest medical campus); the 33-story Memorial Hermann Tower; The Westin Memorial City and Hotel ZaZa Memorial City; and highrise and garden residential living.
