Montrose1100 Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 I don't think anyone could have captured the spirit of this building any better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triton Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 This is amazing photography. The second is my favorite. It looked like a tower I had never seen before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Owl Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 I work in this building, and the inside is awesome, too. Texas pink granite covers the entire elevator lobby area. I'll try to snap some photos one day. I wish they'd do something more interesting with the top of the building, though. Maybe a Memorial-Hermann style crown??? lol ok maybe notI love the 4th photo down in the original post. HC looks pretty dense from that view Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metro Matt Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 (edited) One of the more anonymous "box" buildings in Houston's skyline. The black glass facade looks very 80's ish. Edited March 29, 2008 by Metro Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subdude Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 One of the more anonymous "box" buildings in Houston's skyline. The black glass facade looks very 80's ish.True enough, but I have to admit that I have always really liked One and Two Houston Center. The black glass, while dated, gives them a very restrained elegant look imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
editor Posted April 1, 2012 Author Share Posted April 1, 2012 Another skyscraper name change to note. As noted by the Chronicle a few months ago, One Houston Center is now the LyondellBasell Tower. It's not exactly the "new" in "news," but it's worth noting here on HAIF for those who don't get over to the Houston Center very often. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
