THE LAURA,EAST RIVER Multifamily and Retail Mixed-Use Houston, Texas

Client Midway Architect of Record EDI

Rising from the banks of the Buffalo Bayou waterway, The Laura is the first multifamily community that is part of the ambitious East River Redevelopment Project. The comprehensive mixed-use master plan starts its eastward march with the Laura. As such, the project sets the architectural identity, creative direction, and tenor of the master plan’s future phases and development.

East Downtown (EaDo) is booming. It is home to some of the city’s finest restaurants, Interior Architecture bars, nightlife, social scene, and art scene, and its density has steadily increased Munoz + Albin for more than a decade. Large multifamily projects are replacing townhome cluster (A project of Eric Ragni’s while developments in the surrounding area as its density and prominence grow. Located owner and principal at MARS) on the periphery of EaDo, the project is an eastward extension of this neighborhood.

EaDo’s previous historical uses involved mainly shipping and warehousing, Size mercantile production, and it was briefly home to Houston’s “Chinatown” before it 602,034 SF was relocated to Bellaire. The neighborhood’s older buildings feel gritty, authentic, Residential Units: 359 utilitarian, and many have been repurposed while keeping their charm and older world feel.

Completion 2023 Instead of ignoring the context of aging industrial buildings, the design team chose to embrace the look and feel of EaDo and respond to its context. The Laura’s material selection of red brick, window placement and design, secondary accents, architectural detailing, massing configuration, bridging components, and balcony design help inform its character.

The mission statement from the onset was to design and build something “authentic”, which is not an easy task considering any new construction on a large swath of vacated land would be ironically new and therefore opposed to that goal. The design

team felt that the architectural design needed to be guided by principles that would normally apply to older brick buildings. For example, window placement is regular and lined up, rational, and restrained – almost mathematical. The color pallet for accent materials and secondary facades is restrained, shedlike, simple, and purposeful. We avoided synthetic materials, monumental statements, glitzy finishes, and architectural forms that break from the tradition or these expectations.

The overall building massing is both efficient and egalitarian. The design team wanted to maximize the number of units with views to courtyards or outward views to bayou and downtown. The placement of the building on the site gives preference to long distance views.

Located at the entry point of the development and the closest connection to the Jenson Bridge and EaDo neighborhood, it draws the public inward with tree-lined streets, a carefully crafted ground level, and individual raised patios inspired by the brownstone stoops of Brooklyn. The project also benefits by sitting at the trailhead for the Buffalo Bayou trail system; bikers and pedestrians enjoy direct access to the bayou from the western side. Tenants will enjoy a lobby that acts as a social hub with a warehouse aesthetic, fitness center, and dog park. The main garden, amenity area, and open courtyard all face southward to take advantage of views to downtown, the southern solar exposure, and the waterway. Some of the outdoor ground floor amenity offerings include a pool, grilling stations, outdoor yoga space, a lawn for games and passive recreation, and cabanas.

The Laura will have 359 units that are arranged in three distinctive masses or blocks: a garage and its wrap (west), C-shape (center), and Bar-shape (east).

The entire building is served by one parking garage, and every effort was made to conceal the garage from the public by wrapping it with apartment units.

The central C-shaped mass cradles at its center the arrival motor court and garden. Leasing and the building’s amenities will be located on the ground floor here, and these spaces will have views to the main outdoor courtyard and pool. Located at the center of the project, it is intended to be the hub of activity.

Interior design will speak to the warehouse esthetic with many types of common spaces for a “We-work” inspired social work environment and collaborative zone.

The Bar-shaped mass on the east is connected by a foot bridge and will have local views to the main town square and park space on the east side of the multifamily building. The building will have ground floor retail that is directly adjacent to the new center.

TIMBERGROVE 11TH ST Low Rise Residential Houston, Texas

Client McNair Cockrell Interests Architect of Record Preston Size 305,414 SF Total Area Residential Units: 373 Completion 2025

Houston is defined by the Interstate 610 loop, a freeway ring-road the first ring that defines the city’s inner limits. The Timbergrove neighborhood is within ‘the loop’ and can be subdivided into single family homes and light industrial zones with large parcels of available land. Due to its proximity to Greater Heights neighborhood, a popular community known for its Victorian houses, lush urban tree canopy, parks, and restaurants, Timbergrove has experienced an influx of growth and redevelopment.

Some of these large lots are now being repurposed as multifamily uses as the City of Houston fills in its core area. The project’s site and immediate area is known for its industrial uses and is a quilt work of large 1-story tall steel sheds.

While residential Timbergrove does not change easily the other half has experienced rapid growth as industry is replaced with townhomes and multifamily blocks. One block away from the site of this new project, prairie style ranch homes of the 1950’s, an architectural language embraced by early housing developers in Houston, line the neatly arranged streets with old growth trees.

They are defined by their low-slung hip roofs, known for being angular and sharp.

The development will feature “significant outdoor green space” and “an amenityrich housing option,” according to a March 29 press release from Drew Steffen, senior vice president of real estate with McNair Interests.

Finding some inspiration from the local architectural vernacular the building design seizes on the sharpness and angularity of these nearby homes. The multifamily block is a much larger scale and doesn’t lend itself to a direct representation of low-slung roofs. However, the sharpness is turned on its side in a series of knife edges that

radiate from the center of the block. This unconventional approach is made even more dramatic by rotating the parking garage on the lot. Filling in between the angular spokes are open courtyards, they open towards the surrounding streets forming a looser boundary surrounding the project. These open courtyards don’t fully enclose allowing for all units to have long distance views, avoiding a common problem with traditional ‘doughnut’ plans with fully enclosed unit blocks. Some of the uses of these courtyards include the main south facing pool courtyard and amenity, dog park, leasing and arrival parking for coffee shop, and the remainder are landscaped greenspaces.

AVENUE GROVE Residential Mid Rise Houston, Texas

Client Midway Architect of Record Kirksey (House+Partners)

Avenue Grove is the mid-rise luxury residential building that is one block of the Kirby Grove development and master plan. This project is the residential component of a mixed-use, master-planned development anchored by a newly redeveloped 6-acre public park, Levy Park.

The 8-story multifamily apartment building includes 270 rental units starting at 620 square feet, plus 15 two-story ground floor entry “brownstones” averaging 1,800 Interior Architecture square feet each. The multifamily project resides at the southwestern perimeter Munoz + Albin (A project of Eric Ragni’s while of Levy Park and has direct access and view corridors to the park. The building’s owner and principal at MARS) proximity to Levy Park informed its design and was a primary driver for the building’s form.

Size 484,771 GSF Residential Units: 270 Completion 2016

The generous amenity deck terrace that sits atop the parking garage weaves internally between the fingers so that landscape reaches deep into each pocket.

These internal units have immediate views to deck-level landscape and longdistance views to the park, giving the impression that the park below reaches up to the deck as a continuation of the park space. The amenity’s vanishing edge pool and sunning patios have panoramic views to Levy Park two stories below. Some of the building amenities include a gym, pool, outdoor grilling, canopied outdoor spaces, and beverage bar, all of which benefit from unobstructed views to the park below.

This building acts as the southern boundary or margin of Levy Park. Its relationship to the park makes it distinctive because they enrich each other. The building shelters the park with its soft edge and low velocity perimeter road. Its height and mass block freeway noise and acoustic infiltration from the south. The dynamic open green spaces and robust calendar of district-centered events at the park create a welcome gathering place for families, residents, and visitors.

CORSO COMO MIXED-USE Residential and Retail Mixed-Use Milan, Italy

Client Hines Architect of Record Tekne Size 256,450 SF (23,825 m2) 50 Luxury Units Retail on Ground Level 3 Levels of Underground Parking Completion 2013

This three-building, mixed-use development was designed on a sloping pedestrian street, transitioning from the historical district of Corso Como to the Porta Nuova District and creating a new urban landscape. It is the response to a unique urban site that defines a new concept of living. One challenge was the requirement for vibration separation for all buildings above ground due to existing underground train tunnels.

The composition was carefully modulated to seamlessly integrate the new buildings with the surrounding cityscape, while maintaining a modern and autonomous identity.

HOTEL GEORGE Hotel and Restaurant Pavilion Mixed-Use College Station, Texas

Client Midway Valencia Hotels Architect of Record Kirksey

This boutique hotel at College Station is located at the center of a large development of buildings oriented around a center plaza designed for gatherings and social events. The design is an interpretation of the Texas vernacular town fabric and cultural identity of College Station. The hotel is oriented to capture the views of the town center plaza and is also internally looking to its own poolside amenities and restaurant pavilion.

Heavy timber, local limestone, and recycled Chicago brick are some of the exterior Interior Architecture cladding materials.

Cherrywood Center is a large development expanding the southern boundary of Dublin, Ireland. Centered around a metro rail link expansion, the development connects with neighboring downtown Dublin. The development was divided into several sections – one of which we were assigned to master plan and design a multifamily project to include leasing, amenities, underground parking, and retail.

Within this section, we were awarded a space of nearly two blocks for additional architectural design services. With mountain and ocean views, the two buildings designed on our two-block section will serve as the anchor point for the entire development consisting of seven buildings total.

MORNINGSTAR AT RIVER OAKS SENIOR LIVING Senior Living Community Houston, Texas

Client MorningStar Hines Architect of Record Kirksey (House + Partners) Size 106,022 SF 6 Levels AL / MC Programs 112 Units Completion 2021

The MorningStar at River Oaks Senior Living facility is designed to create a special residential destination for seniors in the Upper Kirby and River Oaks communities, some of Houston’s most affluent neighborhoods. A joint venture partnership between Hines and Denver-based MorningStar Senior Living, this 6-story facility provides 112 assisted living and memory care units ranging from 400 to 850 square feet.

Upon arrival, visitors and guests are welcomed to a covered motor court that is directly connected to the project lobby and garden courtyard. A double-height space that is flanked by two stone walls acts as a funnel shape that reaches outward toward the side street. This architectural feature provides shelter and clearly delineates the entrance announcing a main pedestrian and vehicular arrival point. The building’s primary facades front Revere Street and Richmond Avenue. Due to Richmond’s velocity and traffic, the entrance was strategically located on Revere. The building is composed of three distinct components, two of which are distinct brick masonry masses. The lighter beige-colored rectangular mass faces west with framed out glass end pieces on its ends. The brick work is raked horizontally with recessed patterning to visually tie the windows together. This mass hovers over the motor court and the sculpted glass at the ground level. This design feature, paired with courtyard design and location, allows for natural light to be pulled into the center of the building.

In contrast, the red brick masses act as a grounding element and firmly plant the building to the site.

This 6-story community has the feel of a boutique hotel with the comforts and convenience of a high-end residential building. It offers a rich variety of lifestyle options for older adults. The design of the building emphasizes spaces to allow residents to participate in a multitude of experiences, like taking classes based on their personal interests, dining options, communal activities, salons, and day trip recreational programs.

Amenities include a terrace and lounge with views of downtown, an interior courtyard, fitness and therapy area, beauty salon, and five-star dining opportunities.

The building’s design is specifically tailored to its residents. Designed to foster independence, the interior and public spaces provide autonomy; are legible; physically support mobility; and provide operationally driven criteria and standards for toileting, bathing, sleeping, dressing, and personal care. Safety is a primary concern for the residents, and furniture and fittings allow for freedom of moment, stability, comfort, and injury prevention.

SECOND AND STEELE Residential Building Denver, Colorado

Client Hines Size 155,000 SF 4 Levels of Residential and Retail Residential Units: 90 Completion 2021 (Study)

The Cherry Creek neighborhood in central Denver is known for its walkability and urban planning and is a success story for zoning regulations and community planning. Its density and growth are highly regulated and controlled by local authority, community participation, and partnerships. The zoning restrictions overlayed on this site required a compact building, not exceeding four stories. This project would add to the soft edge of this zone. A low-rise, luxury, multifamily building was studied on this site with retail provisions at the ground floor.

The massing and design were inspired by fluid forms that can be found in Cherry Creek, a nearby water feature that cuts through the city of Denver. Instead of fronting the entire building on the main street, half of the length steps back with a landscaped terrace. This also served to add a bend in the apartment level corridor to limit the long run perception. To encourage outdoor living, the private patios are oversized and grand enough to accommodate a large seating group in most cases.

The high contrast coloration of the forms intentionally accentuates the undulating balcony banding, with a manganese black brick wall and floor to ceiling glass in the recesses.

A portion of the amenities were located on the roof for the local and mountain views and include a heated pool and lush landscaped verandas.

FUTURE PHASE

Levy Park was once hidden away in Houston’s Upper Kirby neighborhood in need of renovation. As the neighborhood’s only public green space, it was important that Levy Park become accessible and densely programmed with a focus on multi-use spaces. Munoz Albin and OJB Landscape Architecture transformed the 5.9 acres into an urban park that leverages environmental and social sustainability practices and serves as a premiere destination for the region.

The project involved master planning the site for an urban park, an office building, and a multifamily project. Existing land parcels were swapped and re-platted to achieve the overall program, conciliating sometimes conflicting public and private interests. The Levy Park project responds very closely to the immediate context and program and includes unique planning solutions that are tied to the site, program, and the new buildings.

The project’s components – park, office building, and multifamily – completely transformed the area into a world-class urban public space. Levy Park has become a center of community activity for the area, achieved through the careful positioning of the buildings and their massing to promote sunlight, as well as the intense programming of the park and the integration of an extensive children’s area, two activity lawns, a performance pavilion, dog park, community garden (urban harvest), and promenade. A renovated streetscape provides an inviting environment and strengthens pedestrian and vehicular connectivity to the park, while the promenade, lined with trees, food trucks, game carts, and moveable furniture, circles the park and creates synergy and connections among the various spaces.

Class A office space with extensive retail use, residential space, and dining

amenities were integrated on two of the park’s corners to provide complementary amenities for park patrons.

The buildings’ pedestrian access were carefully placed to enhance park activation, and both the office and multifamily buildings maintain a continuous high level of occupancy. The lower levels of the office building contain double height collaborative loft office spaces and a trading floor, with tree canopy views and a strong visual relationship to the park. The multifamily building, with interior public spaces designed by team member MaRS, has an articulated massing towards the park, affording park views to a large percentage of units.

Amenity spaces were located on top of the garage podium looking at the park.

Levy Park was a close collaboration between the City of Houston, Upper Kirby Management District, and Midway Companies. The project was highly complex, and our team played a key role from project inception through delivery. The team engaged in extensive programming studies and community workshops to ensure that the community was heard and their needs were accommodated.

The park design was planned around the centrally located children’s garden, which has an ADA

accessible tree house platform that spans across legacy live oaks, which were preserved and relocated on site and create a canopy that reduces the site’s temperatures by an estimated ten degrees. Additional sustainable features include 3.3 acres of permeable surface, locally sourced materials, and a rain garden and community garden, both of which have capabilities to harvest and reuse storm water. The office building was awarded LEED Gold status.

Project quality was an ongoing process that began with a clear project definition. Our team maintained strict control of budget and quality through all phases of the project, starting at Conceptual Design through to construction.

The project is located on the current Conagra Campus next to Conagra Lake in the Heartland of the Americas Park. The site lies east of the Old Market area, an active retail and restaurant region with distinctive architectural and urban character. As is the case in many urban areas with well-defined architectural character, the Old Market area has become a fashionable area in Omaha with intense pedestrian, restaurant, and bar activity.

The master plan capitalizes on the success of the area and further enhances the urban experience by creating an extension of the Old Market with a new destination to provide urban views of the lake and fountain. The master plan design will also improve the connection to the park.

The current campus was designed as a suburban development with isolated buildings in a parklike setting, which prevented integration with the city west of the campus. The new master plan proposes a continuation of the city grid to allow for urban integration with the Old Market area.

An imperative component of the building composition of this mixed-use residential, retail, and public realm complex is the public plaza on the west near Westbrook Station. The overall massing of the project embraces and cradles the public plaza.

The building on the south shifts direction as it passes over a pedestrian zone to acknowledge the presence and position of the train station.

The three residential buildings fold over the podium connecting the mass with the public realm. The principal retail component in the project is a medium-size supermarket, prominent of the lateral street of project.

Adjacent to an existing lake and highway in a Midwestern city in the United States, this master plan accommodates a corporate campus, as well a series of mixed-use buildings to create a community of live-work-play.

The components include corporate headquarters buildings, additional speculative office buildings, hotel, conference center, fitness center, retail/venue pavilion, and multifamily buildings – all organized around a central park adjacent to the water. The hotel and conference center, along with the park, will create a sense of place and destination. The corporate buildings will face the lake and part of the public side of the project.

To encourage growth and attract investments, the City of Farmer’s Branch decided to expand and re-envision their city. Munoz + Albin completed this comprehensive master plan for the land west of the Dallas Area Rapid Transit (DART) metro line and Interstate 35 with Lovett Commercial. The master plan’s main objectives were to create a new hub and urban density in a multi-phased planned community.

Uncommon to most suburban towns and cities on the outskirts of Dallas, Farmers Branch was open minded in creating a different vision from its neighbors. They were interested in building a community focused on density and walkability, a pedestrianoriented master plan. The master plan avoids Federal Acquisition Regulations limitations, maximum lot coverage, and maximum height restrictions. It established zero-line setbacks with no building setbacks, no sky exposure planes, and no elevated upper setbacks. The master plan does stipulate right of ways (road widths), with the goal of compressing the streetscape experience. The master plan extended and connected to an existing trail system and waterway nearby.

The proposal stipulated that the built environment change materials often and limits continuous roof lines. It encouraged gaps and occasional massing setbacks, clad garages, and masked utility spaces.

Buffalo Bayou Park is the gold coast for Houston real estate development. Leading to downtown from the affluent tree-lined River Oaks neighborhood, its winding banks are filling up with new developments, cultural institutions, and master-planned communities. One of the largest tracks of single ownership along the Bayou’s banks is a boot-shaped property near Cleveland Park. The master plan we developed on this site leans heavily into its location and its views to the bayou and downtown. It right sizes the parcels for development, works around an immovable stormwater line, allows for flexibility and phasing, and accounts for access and pedestrian-focused design strategies.

The main uses applied to the plan include multifamily, offices, and retail. The multifamily blocks range in height and market placement based on their location, with larger podium tower type buildings being located where long-distance views are the best. The master plan strategy calls for two office buildings with direct views and proximity to the bayou, allowing for immediate vehicular connection to the Memorial Parkway.

CNO Financial Group is headquartered in Carmel, a suburb of Indianapolis. The master plan included all of the contiguous land that they own and operate, an irregular shaped parcel of 78.48 acres. In its current state, the land is broken into three large parcels with low density office buildings surrounded by open air parking lots and water detention ponds. The master plan is a study of the potential parcellation, utilization, and organization of the land and roadways. Many options were developed and studied over the course of the master planning process. The master plan is centered around the notion that CNO will potentially build a new headquarters building. Locating the optimal site for this office building, in conjunction with plazas and other uses like multifamily and retail zones, was paramount. Also, considerations for growth and the selling off of land were part of the study.

The master plan design aimed to create something special, a community centered around pedestrian flow and use. The design separates vehicular and pedestrian uses with perimeter roadways and internal park spaces and greenways. The buildings are intended to open themselves toward communal parks. When the parks are aggregated over time, a series of trails and waterways will combine into two main axis ways. The combination of retail offerings and coexisting use groups of multifamily and office would reduce parking demands. The master plan, if ever fully realized, will become a destination and novel urban model for Indianapolis.

Located on a 6-acre site in the prestigious Memorial neighborhood, this mixeduse project includes office, retail, multifamily, single-family, and banking buildings and generates a pedestrian-friendly destination. With special attention to the size, exposure, and access of the site, Memorial Green includes a central plaza with multiple restaurants on each side. The south side of the development is dedicated to single-family residences due to its proximity to a pre-existing residential neighborhood.

By establishing a strong visual corridor down the middle of the site, the project encourages connectivity to Memorial Drive. A vehicular plaza opens to Memorial Drive for ease of access and visual connectivity to the center of the site. The very center is reserved as a pedestrian only space, maintaining a lively atmosphere important to activate the public space.
