Texas & Louisiana City Scoop: Construction Starts in Houston
Jerry Nevlud President/CEO AGC Houston
Houston’s construction markets are “kind of a mixed bag” these days, says Nevlud. While some larger projects and private development work has stalled, or fallen through, plenty of school projects are ongoing, he says, given the plentiful bond funding from the last several years. These projects include the $80-million High School for the Performing and Visual Arts, now under construction and slated for a 2018 completion, and the $107-million Lamar High School, also in progress and set to wrap up in 2019.
