COMPAQ TO HP TO COLLEGE The Lone Star College System — formerly known as North Harris Montgomery Community College System — appears to be the mystery buyer for those 8 empty office buildings in the former Hewlett-Packard, former-Compaq campus at 249 and Louetta. Or at least a few of them: “The property would be used for educational purposes, but the size of the acquisition is still being determined, said Steve Lestarjette, associate vice chancellor of public affairs for Lone Star College. HP declined comment Thursday.” [Houston Chronicle]
