Standard Sanitary Manufacturing Co. At 2300 McKinney St.

[Highrise Tower]

wow! I just found this building under construction! Very cool.

Here's some history:

Turn right onto Dowling Street, then left onto McKinney Avenue. Alfred C. Finn designed the major warehouse structures along this stretch of McKinney — the four-story Standard Sanitary Manufacturing Co. Building (1924) at 2300 McKinney and the four-story Crane Company Building at 2205 McKinney (1926). They are separated by what had been the right-of-way of the San Antonio & Aransas Pass Railway yards between Bastrop and Hutchins. Turn left onto St. Emanuel Street.

From the newspaper The Houston Post. dated March 9, 1924.
