Houston Spaceport gives tenants the tools, space, facilities and infrastructure they need to operate and grow their commercial aerospace businesses. As a launch and landing site for suborbital, reusable launch vehicles as well as a center for innovation, the Spaceport offers a number of attractive build-to-suit leasing opportunities.
