This high-end, residential rental tower is located in the heart of Houston’s Museum District and is designed to capture views of downtown and the Medical Center.

The garage podium is grouped in tectonic shapes that support a slender tower above. The neighboring Asia Society building is addressed by a floating limestone plane on the east side. The site proposes a semi-private park on the northwest corner of the site, adjacent to the restaurant component of the building.
