Chevron’s takeover of Hess Corp. means 575 jobs at Hess Tower are on the chopping block, starting September 26. That’s a huge shift for downtown Houston, especially with Hess Tower sitting right across from Discovery Green. With so many people leaving, the building will have a lot of empty space—adding to the city’s already high office vacancy rate. For anyone working or living nearby, this could mean new businesses moving in, or more changes to the neighborhood vibe. How do you think these layoffs and the extra office space will impact downtown Houston? #Business #EntrepreneurshipStartup #HoustonNews
