Houston Henge is an exploratory project on new ways in which demolished infrastructure can be re-purposed to become an integral part of the community. To create an environment where the language of the highway structure isn’t so invasive and imposing, pieces of the demolished I45 highway were repurposed to become the structural elements of the building, as well as landscape elements within the park.

Once completed, the New I45 highway will then coexist with the ruins of its old self, in a space which is not invasive but inviting. The project’s goal is to open the public eye to the possibilities that lie within renovation projects such as this, so in the future we might live in a world where underpasses are no longer the undesired leftover spaces of the urban fabric .
