Originally built in the 1960s, Love Field’s main commercial air carrier runway saw its last rehabilitation in 1990.

After multiple additions and renovations over its 60-year lifespan, the original Bellaire High School was no longer able to support modern educational practices. Funded by Houston ISD’s 2012 Bond Program, the $122.9-million facility will support the community far beyond the next 60 years.

Planning began in 2016 on this $155-million renovation, with construction kicking off in October 2019. The 133,000-sq-ft space blends contemporary design with elements of the original 1937 Art Deco structure, which will serve as an entrance to the museum.

Built in 1855, the two-story Greek Revival landmark of New Orleans’ Carrollton neighborhood evidenced the effects of time, weather and neglect, from deteriorated wooden trusses and masonry to damage from vandalism and animal infestation.

As part of the federal permanent injunction regarding culvert corrections, this $25-million design-build project corrected two fish barriers and replaced them with four fish passable structures.

With a mix of unit types, diverse interior and exterior amenities, and a unified biophilic design, this 21-story “pedestrian to campus” high-rise for University of Washington students was inspired by columnar basalt in volcanic formations.

In order to demolish and rebuild a working restaurant and bar across a 10,640-sq-ft site in five months, the team, which started construction with incomplete drawings, engaged the design-build process as work progressed.

The complete renovation of the US Bank Center’s 100,000-sq-ft, three-story open-air entry lobby in downtown Seattle took more than two years and 26,000 work hours to complete.

To complete a much needed expansion for Gensler’s Seattle office to cover the entire fifth floor of 1200 6th Avenue, crews had to find new ways to work with limited budget and resources.

The $156-million, 276,000-sq-ft Mountain View High School replaces the original facility that was built in 1981. Featuring safety and security updates, the new campus has a more compact footprint, with two- and three-story classroom wings, a gymnasium, auditorium, kitchen and cafeteria, media center, front offices, support space, collaboration areas and career and technical education spaces.
