Tellepsen has completed the American Cancer Society's Richard M. Schulze Family Foundation Hope Lodge in Houston, a long-awaited project that will provide free lodging for cancer patients traveling to Houston for treatment. The facility is preparing to open this summer.
The $30 million, four-story facility at 6801 Ardmore St., near the intersection of Highway 288 and Old Spanish Trail, includes 64 guest suites for cancer patients traveling to Houston for treatment. Once fully operational, the facility aims to provide approximately 23,000 nights of free lodging per year to visiting patients.
