Phi Kappa Psi Fraternity House

Project Size: 50,000 SF
Owner: Texas Alpha House
Architect: Connolly Architects
Project Type: Private Enterprise

The Phi Kappa Psi Fraternity House was a significant project, in that it embodied Austin Canyon Corporation’s commitment and ability to work on a Team Basis with Architects, their Consultants, Owner Representatives and the Subcontractor Team to deliver an exceptional structure. Constructing a building of this stature in the ever-changing University of Texas neighborhood environment comes with its own set of distinctive obstacles. Some constraints of this project included working through design and budget challenges, along with Neighborhood and City Zoning, Permitting and Ordinance issues.
One unique aspect of the project was that it included the remodeling of an existing townhouse along with construction of a new facility. The two elements were then connected by a raised sport deck and courtyard plaza. Construction included the excavation and exterior wall retention system, which was integrated into the overall building composition for below grade parking with cast-in-place concrete and steel for the upper floors. The exterior envelope is comprised of structural steel, metal framing with cut Limestone veneer, storefront and curtainwall systems to match the Architectural vocabulary of the existing building.

Shoreline Christian Church – Children’s Ministry Building

Project Size: 39,000
Owner: Shoreline Christian Church
Architect: Jackson Galloway Architects
Project Type: Religious Facility

This project was originally intended to be an expansion of the existing main sanctuary, but Fire Code requirements ‘forced’ the design to be tastefully modified to become two buildings. To adapt, the two structures became separate, and instead were connected by a bridging, breezeway element with IPE wood ceilings and aluminum metal siding. A combination of structural steel with masonry and plaster veneer, hollow metal, storefront exterior window systems, this two-story building houses 22 classrooms, two auditorium style worship rooms and an interior playground. The project received a 2008 Outstanding Construction Award from the Association of General Contractors and is an excellent example of Austin Canyon Corporation’s successful team-based service delivery.[/cs_text]

Texan Eye Care – Main Central Location

Project Size: 20,000 SF Building Renovation
Owner: Texan Eye Medical Center
Architect: Haddon + Cowan Architects
Project Type: Medical Facility

The goal of this exterior and interior remodel with finish-out was to turn an old, outdated building into a brand new eye clinic. The project incorporated natural wood, cut limestone walls, custom free-formed millwork, floor to ceiling glass panels and terrazzo flooring to provide a timeless, elegant appearance. A unique portion of the project included exterior modifications to refashion a rather plain, non-descript building. A Corten steel screen wall accented by an entry awning of finished aluminum metal panels provided a new, contemporary building image with welcoming entry to replace the ordinary, outdated appearance of the existing building.[/cs_text][layerslider id=”4″][/cs_column][/cs_row][/cs_section][/cs_content]

Amplify Credit Union Esperanza Crossing Branch

Project Size: 8,700 SF
Owner: Amplify Credit Union
Architect: Mente Sowell Architects
Project Type: Financial Institution

Comprised of structural steel and light gauge metal framing, this uniquely designed credit union included a creative combination of materials including limestone veneer longboard, wood grained metal siding, metal shingle style paneling and aluminum storefront window systems. The building was intended to compliment the architectural vocabulary of new and existing buildings, while still standing out in its surroundings. The project’s materials, size and colorful surroundings contribute to the architectural success, and it will be submitted for design and construction awards toward the end of 2017.

Austin Regional Clinic Cedar Park

Project Size: 20,300 SF
Owner: CP Discovery Partners. LP

We are proud to say that this project received a 2016 Outstanding Construction Award from the Association of General Contractors.
