plumber2 Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 It's interesting how "topping out ceremonies" on construction projects have been taken over by the owners. This ceremony was historically an iron worker's party, staged to celebrate the completion of their scope of work. It usually marked the exit and entering of completly different sets of crafts to comple the building. Now it's just a party for the owners to announce and market themselves. Oh well, so long as they're paying for the party, let them have the glory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tangledwoods Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 There are usually two very separate events, one for the owner and the other for the workers. We often use an extra or trash beam painted white for the owner to sign and then just fly it up into the building so they can feel like they participated in something.

cloud713 Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 First time I've driven by it in decent weather since the majority of the building has been glassed over.. It's a decent bit darker than the rest of the Briar Forest cluster but it looks nice. Anyone know if the soccer field will ever be open to non employees? And is this becoming the most urban sports facility in Houston? Surely the most urban style soccer field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
