Memorial City District Engineering & Infrastructure Redevelopment

Long‑Term Engineering, Surveying, and Traffic Control Services

BGE provided engineering leadership for MetroNational, the landowner and operator of more than 225 acres located south of I-10 and spanning both sides of Gessner Road in Houston, Texas. The site includes two of the region’s most prominent destinations—Memorial City Mall and the Memorial Hermann Hospital Memorial City Campus.

As the district evolved, BGE supported multiple phases of development and redevelopment, addressing the complex infrastructure needs of a high-traffic medical and commercial environment. The longevity of the engagement required adaptive solutions that balanced growth, access, and safety without disrupting daily visitors, patients, or staff.
