Houston Chronicle Media Group announced plans Monday to relocate most of its downtown workforce, including employees from the Houston Chronicle, LaVozTX.com, Chron.com and HoustonChronicle.com, to a "state-of-the-art" campus in southwest Houston.

Executives anticipate an 18-month timeline for the move, which will include a significant renovation of the future space, the former Houston Post building at the 610 Loop/Southwest Freeway interchange.

As part of the process, the media company is preparing to solicit bid requests for architectural and engineering services for its future campus.

"We are excited about creating a state-of-the-art media facility as part of the Houston cityscape," Paul Barbetta, executive vice president and chief operating officer of the Houston Chronicle Media Group, said in a statement. "As we have changed with the industry, we feel a facility housing all employees across our diverse capabilities, including print, digital media and agency consulting services will allow us to better serve our readers and advertisers."
