An old building that has worked hard to look young. A full view of the building reveals nothing special. It's another Houston exoskeleton basking in the sun. But from the sidewalk -- and especially at night – there is a bit of magic. The first five floors are open to make a huge glass-enclosed space. El Paso Energy has also installed an incredibly long electric stock ticker to deliver messages and add to the visual appeal. The effect is a warm, inviting space that is palpably high-tech with very little work.
