Austin’s Seaholm Intake Building Hasn’t Looked This Clean in Decades

James Rambin April 29, 2022 Comment

The long-awaited rehabilitation of the Seaholm Power Plant’s former intake structure on the shores of Lady Bird Lake in downtown Austin should complete its first phase early this summer, and if you’ve spent any time around the lake in the last few weeks you might have already noticed that this 1950s Art Deco landmark has received a heck of a good…

The Long-Awaited Seaholm Waterfront Project Starts Up Its First Phase

James Rambin September 17, 2021 Comment

We’re huge fans of the plan by the City of Austin’s Parks and Recreation Department to rehab the historic 1950s Art Deco-style facility on Lady Bird Lake formerly used as the pump house of the adjacent Seaholm Power Plant into a new downtown public space — and unlike the fate of many plans we like, after waiting more than 10 years we’re happy to report…

James Rambin May 20, 2021 Comment

The Bartholomew-Robinson Building at 1415 Lavaca Street, built in the 1880s but most recently serving as office space for…

A Bigger H-E-B Won’t Fix Hancock Center, but It’s Not a Bad Start

James Rambin January 14, 2021 Comment

We usually have a good time ragging on the outdated urban planning principles of the later 20th century — urban renewal, highways everywhere, other weirdness — so it’s a little embarrassing to admit that Hancock Center, the 34-acre strip mall you know and love(?) at East 41st and Red River Streets, was a more pleasantly-designed environment for human beings between its…
