Head’s up, Houston, another rooftop is coming to town. 55 Seventy wine and social club have locked in on a nearly one-acre site abutting Levy Park where the group plans to bring a 30,000-square-foot clubhouse with rooftop terrace.
55 Seventy is the second iteration of the Dallas-based concept owned by entrepreneur Tommy Shuey, who opened its flagship location at 6130 Berkshire Lane in Dallas in 2022. As described in the press release, 55 Seventy is an upscale social club with a food and wine focus. The members-only club aims to create a space of exceptional hospitality ideal for networking, business gatherings, and mixing with like-minded enthusiasts.
“Houston has a dynamic and sophisticated culinary and wine scene, which makes it the perfect city for 55 Seventy’s expansion,” said founder Tommy Shuey in a press release.
“We feel so fortunate to have found a site where we can create something truly remarkable for members from the ground up and were drawn to the Upper Kirby area because of its vibrancy and a location that’s at the axis of River Oaks, West University, Montrose and Uptown.”
The company plans to start construction on its 30,000-square-foot Houston space at 3015 Richmond Ave later this year. Located adjacent to Levy Park and the coming RO development, the venue will feature a three-story clubhouse designed in collaboration between Abel Design Group (architecture), and Gin Design Group (interior).
In addition to a sweeping rooftop terrace overlooking Levy Park, 55 Seventy in Houston will house a full-service restaurant with cellar suites, demonstration kitchen, dining rooms, 800 wine lockers, and exclusive, invite-only Founder’s Lounge.
Staff at the venue, 55 Seventy states, will feature trained sommeliers, wine brokerage service for rare wines, a cellar master and full-time wine concierge. The building will have club-entry points at the gates and feature private parking.
The club will begin building later this year with the intention of opening in fall 2026.
