  • Texas Central Picks Preferred High-Speed Train Passenger Station in Houston
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Texas Central picks preferred high-speed train passenger station in Houston • Preferred location will revitalize Northwest Mall site at I-610 and US 290 • Project seen as catalyst for economic growth, new jobs and development • Local connections planned with major employment centers, public transit HOUSTON [Feb. 5, 2018] – Highlighting Houston’s history as a major railway hub, Mayor Sylvester Turner and developers of the Texas Bullet Train announced today the preferred site of the new passenger station, at the Northwest Mall near the interchange of Interstate 610 and US 290. The terminal will be ideally located in a high-growth area, with easy access to employment centers, including the Galleria, the Energy Corridor and downtown. The station not only will be a catalyst for economic growth but it also will offer a convenient, efficient and direct network for passengers to and from local transit systems. The selection comes about a month after federal regulators released an environmental analysis that said the 200-mph, Houston-to-North Texas train would alleviate the strain on the state’s existing infrastructure and is needed to accommodate growing demands. “Houston continues to grow. Growing the smart way includes providing a wider choice of transportation options beyond more private vehicles and more roads. The Texas Bullet Train fits the transportation paradigm shift I have called for. And now with a preferred location for the Houston station, we are one big step closer to boarding for an exciting trip to the Brazos Valley and on to Dallas,” Mayor Sylvester Turner said. Texas Central, the high-speed train developers, released maps and conceptual renderings – final designs are pending – that show a multi-level station on a 45-acre site.

    BORDERLAND APPROPRIATIONS: GLOBALIZATION, OBSOLESCENCE, MIGRATION AND THE AMERICAN SHOPPING MALL A Dissertation by GREGORY N. MARINIC Submitted to the Office of Graduate and Professional Studies of Texas A&M University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Chair of Committee, Sarah Deyong Co-chair of Committee, Peter Lang Committee Members, Koichiro Aitani Cecilia Giusti Head of Department, Robert Warden August 2017 Major Subject: Architecture Copyright 2017 Gregory Marinic ABSTRACT The notion of place embodies a complex intersection of architecture, occupancy, and identity. Tied to geographic and historical conditions, built environments existing between two worlds or within contested territories reveal the underlying political and social forces that have shaped them. Assuming an analogous relationship between consumption and architecture as interconnected systems, this dissertation examines American suburbia in the early twenty-first century to assess convergent flows related to consumption. It engages with the changing nature of retail form, function, and obsolescence to illustrate transnational and technological influences impacting suburban commercial architecture. More specifically, it analyzes occupancies, appropriations, and informal adaptations of retail environments in two distinct regional contexts in North America—the USA-Mexico Borderlands of Texas and the USA-Canada Borderlands of the Eastern Great Lakes region. This research charts the rise, fall, and transformation of the American
