THE POWER OF PLACE
MESSAGES FROM OUR DEVELOPMENT TEAM We have put together a great team for The Sophie, and that team has worked so hard to get to where we are today…groundbreaking. Everyone involved believes in this building, and we have all become fascinated with seeing it get built, so groundbreaking is a special day for us because it is the day The Sophie transforms from a theory to a reality. WILL STOLZ | DEVELOPER | STOLZ PARTNERS The design inspiration for the project began by looking at art, architecture and fashion icons throughout history that have come to represent a “classic contemporary” style that is timeless, said Jerry Hooker, Principal of Mirador Group. Icons like the Chanel little black dress and classic New York apartment houses gave way to the inspiration behind the architecture, interiors and landscape architecture. Even the name “The Sophie” stems from the word ‘sophistication’. JERRY HOOKER | ARCHITECT | MIRADOR GROUP The Sophie’s presale success speaks to market preferences. Graciously-sized residences with expansive outdoor terraces, pet-friendly amenities, private garages within the garage, bring a whole new meaning for opting for a home in the sky. In addition, low

Homeowners’ Association (HOA) fees, so owners don’t have to pay for services they don’t use, are also appealing. JACOB SUDHOFF | SALES AND MARKETING | SUDHOFF PROPERTIES

S A L E S U P D AT E Thank you for your support and confidence in this incredible development. Now that we have achieved our initial goal of selling 50% of The Sophie at Bayou Bend, we anticipate the sales pace will increase even further now that construction is about to commence. Weekly sales traffic and the sales pipeline continue to be quite strong and we are on target to achieve sellout well before closings begin. Our goal is to create a joyful and meaningful experience for our buyers, as they transition from their current residences to a new life of carefree luxurious convenience. We are grateful that many of you have already referred friends and family members to us and will become your neighbors at The Sophie. Please contact a sales agent if you have others in mind who also might be interested in considering making The Sophie their new home.

almost double the size of New York’s Central Park.

Bayou Bend Collection and Gardens houses MFAH’s American decorative arts and paintings. Displayed in the former home of Houston civic leader and philanthropist Ima Hogg (1882–1975), the collection is one of the finest showcases of American furnishings, silver, ceramics, and paintings in the world. The house is situated just east of The Sophie on 14 acres of beautifully manicured gardens in Houston’s historic River Oaks neighborhood. Also located nearby, the recently completed Buffalo Bayou Park offers 160 acres of beautiful scenery and skyline views, artwork, a nature play area, the “go-to” dog park in the city and gathering places for visitors to enjoy outdoor activities
