Tucked away in the middle of the Gulf Coast, the Houston Audubon manages over 4,000 acres of habitat dedicated to conservation, education, and leaving a positive environmental impact. We were provided an incredible opportunity to fabricate an elevated walkway for birdwatchers to use as a walkway through High Island Sanctuary. Many challenges accompanied the project, including a swampy landscape, global pandemic, and a strict deadline to avoid interfering with migration patterns. Despite these challenges, our team utilized our deep knowledge and communication to ensure every detail, down to each nut and bolt, contributed to a structurally sound, yet beautiful piece of architecture. The walkway was constructed with weathering steel that will age well over time and maintain its integrity, ensuring the legacy of conservancy and environmental care that will last for many generations.

Memorial Park, located within the metro area of Houston, is one of the largest urban parks in the country. It’s rich history dates all the way back to 1924. Tellepsen entrusted us with many projects within the Park, including custom furniture made of imported Thermory Ash and White Oak woods. Additionally, we were tasked with fabricating items using Corten steel and semi-timber logs from the park, bronze railings, galvanized custom light poles, a curved bench and more. There were several aspects of this project our team will always remember, like the 196 units of trunk lighting we perfectly engineered and installed within four 25-foot tunnels, and the bridge guardrails post bottom connections we installed while sitting in a kayak. We are so proud to have been part of this legendary project!

In the middle of a busy urban landscape exists Levy Park Conservancy, a vibrant place where Houstonians go to connect with nature. Renfrow was tasked with translating Levy Park’s desire for colorful, yet functional recreational equipment into reality to create a space where people could escape city life. Through meticulously artistic methods and planning, our team executed the fabrication and installation of unique water features, play structures, and more. The end result is a beautiful park filled with one-of-a-kind spaces for families and pets to enjoy for years to come.
