I am planning a wedding for 2013 and I was wondering if the Sylvan Beach Pavilion would be rebuilt by then. If you have contact information with the management of the pavilion can you please share this information with me. Thank you, Ashley

Comment on What if HOV Lanes were Bike Paths? by Bill

What’s stopping Metro from allowing bikes on the HOV lanes on the weekend? I’m not talking about the managed lanes like the I-10 Katy lanes, but the separated ones. Some of these sit idle over the weekend and seem like an ideal bike path (with elevation changes too!)

Comment on Houston Central Station by Stephen Lawlis

As a designer, I think all of these proposals are beautiful. As a frequent Metro and Metro Rail rider, I think they have failed. If you have ever ridden the Rail when it’s raining, or cold, or windy, or raining with a cold wind, then you huddle near the vertical glass screens that are located in the current Rail stops. Rarely does rain fall straight down, which is why people are not holding their umbrellas 3-4 feet over their heads. These are all wonderful forms, but they just do not follow the function of what they need to do… offer shelter to the riders.

Comment on Can Lake Flato Architects Deliver on the Prefabricated House? by Jennifer Dippel

Amazing. Yes, if this can influence the mass builders then something besides awards can be won. As my husband and I ponder our second home dreams we now have the Porchhouse as top on our list. It is the whole package and we will find it exciting to be on the forefront.

Comment on Why the Red Scarf, Pablo Ferro? by Allen Ferro

No problem, JP – I take all critical opinions literally. After all, context is everything.
The movie “Pablo” is approaching the final stages of finishing. Richard and Jeremy have submitted the film to Sundance concurrent with the final stages of post production.

If you have any questions regarding Pablo please contact us directly, and thanks for the article. Very Best – Allen

Comment on Why the Red Scarf, Pablo Ferro? by Pablo Ferro

Pablo Ferro — Fri, 04 Nov 2011 21:04:27 +0000

The scarf has always been this idea that Richard and Jeremy have tried to keep alive. The Scarf is a very simple concept. Branding. The fact that it goes around my neck is a coincidence and convenient for people to profile. The other thing is, I don’t function out of a garage. My son built a guest house where the garage was, so again, it’s being called a garage for dramatic effect. I have not lived there for almost five years now. I now live in an apartment in Sherman Oaks.
