A new building is in the talking stages for the MFA. It would mainly house the 20th century and contemporary collections. The museum has 3 sites in mind. One is at the current garage location on Fannin. Another is across Binz from the garage and a third is north of the Mies wing off Main. There are any number of world-class architects worthy of the job. I'd like to hear any suggestions you might have regarding the selection. Here's a few of mine: Renzo Piano [Menil Collection; Cy Twombly] Yoshio Taniguchi [MOMA and the new Aisa Museum in Houston] Zaha Hadid [Rosenthal Center for Contemporar

I found these prints at an estate sale a few years ago and would love to know more about the art and artist, as well as find more similar prints of historic Houston buildings! It appears the artist is “Watt Bell” or perhaps “Walter Bell.” I have prints of the Houston Cotton Exchange and Board of Trade Building, The Hogg Building, and the Sweeney-Coombs & Frederick Building. Does anyone know anything about these prints and their origin or know anything about the artist?

The Uptown Houston website lists this new project as: A.D. Players Theatre: New construction is planned for a performance theatre at Yorktown and Westheimer. The 85,000 square foot theatre complex will hold three theaters with a total seating of 1,000. The theatre should be complete within three years. The A.D. Players broke ground on the new location February 2006. Do we know any additional information? The AD Players theatre website does not have any information about the architect, renderings, or any other information. This will be a great venue. What else can we find out? -Yak-

No official release from MMD, but here's a post from Innerlooped. Link: http://innerlooped.com/1897/midtown-officially-ae-district/ So what does this designation mean for Midtown. Is there a case study for how this designation affects a district? I'm curious. -
I didn't see this anywhere else, so here goes... A new folk-art inspired greenspace called Smither Park is being planned for the 1/2 acre lot adjacent to the Orange Show. The park's development is being sponsored by the Orange Show in memory of John H. Smither. The design is by Dan Phillips (although I can't tell if he's doing the overall park layout or just the pieces within the park). Here's the website: http://smitherpark.org/Smither_Park_Website/Welcome.html ... and a rendering (found on the site):-

Okay, if there was a designated place for this topic already, well I sure as hell couldn't find it so has anyone heard anything about the Spirit Of Houston? I figured they had cancelled the vision altogether since the guy died but who knows... if so that's a shame. I thought she was awesome. I'm still new at this place so don't know if the picture will come through or not. Spirit Of Houston
