Terrastone Travesia

Alliance Communities, the Texas division of Phoenix-based Alliance Residential, broke ground in February 2008 on what opened as Broadstone Travesia, with the Houston office of Hensley, Lamkin and Rachel as architect and construction financing from Guaranty Bank. The site faces the 328-acre La Frontera mixed-use development and Travesia Corporate Park, which holds 216,000 square feet of Class A office space. Berkshire Residential Investments now manages the property, spread across 17 buildings. One-bedrooms run 627 to 783 square feet, two-bedrooms 923 to 1,153, and three-bedrooms 1,347 to 1,365. A renovation program has brought quartz counters, tile backsplashes and new hard-surface flooring; outside there is a fountain-lined pool, a fireside retreat under a pergola trellis, covered grilling and dining areas, and garage parking.
