Houston will get a new live music venue downtown this November, named for the city's original area code.
The 713 Music Hall will be an anchor tenant at POST Houston, the transformed former Barbara Jordan Post Office at 401 Franklin St. The historic building is being redesigned as a hub for culture, food, shopping and recreation.
Operated by Live Nation, the 713 Music Hall will host concerts and events with audiences up to 5,000. The first series of shows will be announced soon.
The venue is expected to host more than 100 events annually, and staff is currently being hired for the grand opening season.
