The Artistry Design District is now open at 3939 W. 12th Street.

The Artistry Design District’s central hub is the Clubhouse. Residents have access to a state-of-the-art fitness center, lounges, a gourmet kitchen, flexible co-working spaces, a wi-fi lounge, and private office space. Four-legged residents have access to a dog park and a "Paw Spa."

“Center stage” is the event venue area, with a stage designed to host live music and other entertainment. Residents will also find the resort-style pool with two sun shelves and jumbotron-style TV, private cabanas, and expansive green spaces.

Apartments have details such as quartz countertops with tiled backsplashes; nine- and 10-foot ceilings, depending on location; walk-in closets; and LED lighting. Some units have built-in bookshelves, deep soaking tubs, and showers with dual shower heads.

The development is the brainchild of McGrath Real Estate Partners, which specializes in multifamily, student housing, and single-family lot development across the U.S.

“We’ve seen an overwhelming response to leasing at Artistry Design District, with residents already moving in and strong ongoing demand,” Michael S. McGrath, president and CEO at McGrath Real Estate Partners, said in a statement. “This momentum reinforces our vision of creating a community that reflects the area’s distinctive character. With an exceptional location just minutes from the Heights, Galleria, downtown, and the Energy Corridor, Artistry offers direct access to Houston’s most vibrant neighborhoods and business districts, along with a lifestyle experience that’s both elevated and community-focused.”

The community is currently 57 percent leased; with 42 percent occupancy. Pricing on the community’s website shows a 499-square-foot, studio with one bath renting for $1,374 a month, while a 1,283-square-foot, two-bedroom-two-bath apartment is available for $2,900.
