Downtown Elgin Awarded Grant for CARTS

Posted in Uncategorized by Kristie
July 27, 2018
The Texas Transportation Commission recently awarded a number of grants authorized by its Public Transportation Division, including one for the Capital Area Rural Transportation System (CARTS) to support the construction of a station in downtown Elgin.
The station is to be built on city-owned property in Elgin’s master planned downtown. The CARTS Station will provide bus connections from its District to an eventual CapMetro rail line slated for a future extension of the Green line train network.
We are honored to be a part of this project, with an anticipated opening date of March 2020.

h+uo architects recently completed another fun amenity building in the second phase of The Groves neighborhood in North Houston.  We designed a “Fish Camp” where residents and their guests can have the experience of fishing from a small pond right in their neighborhood.  More amenities, including the first pool, are being designed for the upcoming third phase of this 993 acre master planned community.

One of our on-going projects, located in Humble, Texas, is The Groves. It is a large master planned community with Phase I well underway. We previously completed the Welcome Center, and the Phase II “Fish Camp” amenity is under construction.

We are currently in the design phase for the future swimming pool amenity, also located further down the meandering waterway, from the Fish Camp.

One of our projects, the Athena Montessori Academy, here in Austin, Texas, was mentioned in the How We Montessori blog highlighting inspirational Montessori school kitchens. Their mission is to guide and encourage the natural development of students in a Montessori learning community.

 

The founder of Athena Montessori and Head of School, Lisl Friday, is a long-time friend of Tom Hatch, the Partner in Charge of the project and our firm’s founder. Architect Kelly Stephenson, the Project Manager, and Lisl are also related through marriage.

 

h+uo architects is glad to have and build new community relationships and often times our clients end up like family.
