BrewerEscalante is the civil and MEP engineer designing facilities to completely
replace the existing water supply plants and wastewater treatment plants at Harris County's
136 acre jail facility in Atascocita. The capacity of these facilities is equivalent to a 1,152
single-family residential subdivision. When complete, the water and wastewater facilities will serve a
State of Texas Jail, The Harris County Sheriff's Department Training Facility, Harris County Juvenile
Boot Camp, Precinct 4 Maintenance Camp and Administrative Offices, a new 2,100 inmate Harris County Jail,
and will be designed for expansion to serve an additional 1,200 inmate jail in the future. Hermes
Architects is the project architect. BrewerEscalante is a sub-consultant under civil engineer WLB
Associates. Construction is scheduled for 2010.
BrewerEscalante was the electrical engineer consultant to New York architect Ehrenkrantz Eckstut & Kuhn and Houston
civil engineer PGAL for the $8.9 million Main Street Square, the exciting new public plaza on Main Street between Dallas and Walker
Streets in downtown Houston. The plaza boasts innovative architecture and has become a vibrant new town square. The focal point of the
square is a block-long fountain with sixty-one jets that are programmed to provide pedestrians with a constantly changing experience.
METRO light rail trains pass through the fountain. The project was developed by Central Houston Civic Improvement, Inc.
BrewerEscalante provided MEP engineering services for Houston METRO that included improvements to downtown and midtown streets in Houston.
Improvements include new pavestone sidewalks, bus shelters, banner poles, traffic signals, sign poles, information kiosks, irrigation trees,
electrical communications and drainage. PGAL was the architect for the project.
BrewerEscalante is the MEP engineer in support of the Civil (streets)
contract for METRO's East End Corridor Light Rail Transit project with
Houston Civil Engineer Omega Engineers. This project includes the new
LRT Line generally routed between along Harrisburg Boulevard between
downtown Houston and 69th Street. The proposed LRT Line construction
will include Transit Stations (for passenger embarking/de-embarking
the LRT trains), street modifications and civil improvements to accommodate
the new LRT elements and systems. The MEP scope includes Power and Communications
cabinets and services, conduit and wiring distribution, grounding and water and
storm sewer plumbing systems for eight stations. Each station includes lighting,
CCTV, paging system, phones, general power, data, signage, communication, grounding,
water distribution, and roof storm drainage. The project completion is scheduled for early 2012.
BrewerEscalante teamed with EEK Architects of New York City
for the conceptual design and preliminary engineering of the
Intermodal Terminal for Washington Group and Houston METRO.
BrewerEscalante is the civil and MEP engineer on the project.
The project is located just north of downtown. It will become the
main transit and transportation hub in the City of Houston. Retail,
entertainment, office and residential uses are planned adjacent to
the Intermodal facility. Transportation modes include highway, street,
light rail, bus, bus rapid transit, commuter rail, high speed rail,
and main line freight rail. Other consultants on the project include
Michael Baker and Llewelyn-Davies Sahni.
BrewerEscalante was the MEP engineer for Line Section 5 of METRO's Main Street Light Rail Transit project
(between the University of Houston/Downtown and West Gray in downtown Houston, Texas) with Houston architect PGAL.
The Houston Downtown Management District also engaged us for engineering services related to enhancements in the Main Street
light rail transit corridor.
BrewerEscalante was the civil and MEP engineer consultant to Houston architect Rey de la Reza for the METRO
transit center project located on METRO'S Main Street light rail corridor at the Houston Medical Center. This
transit center is the City's largest with capacity for eighteen buses. The $6 million project also features
pedestrian bridge links to M. D. Anderson and to the light rail transit station at the Medical Center.
BrewerEscalante was the civil engineer for Perry Road from FM 1960 to Mills Road in Harris County, Precinct 4.
The project is a development of Harris County Public Infrastructure Department - Engineering Division. Perry Road
is designed as a 4-lane concrete boulevard with curb & gutter, storm sewer, detention and SWQMP facilities.
BrewerEscalante is also managing the environmental and the hydrology & hydraulics services for the adjacent
section of Perry Road from Mills Road to SH 249. Other team members include Huitt-Zollars, Dodson & Associates,
Othon, Inc., and PBS&J of Houston.
Sesquicentennial Park is located in downtown Houston, Texas along Buffalo Bayou from Texas Avenue at
Bagby Street to Franklin Avenue at Smith Street. This project was originally conceived to commemorate Texas'
150th year of independence. Today, it provides an important park resource for Houston's downtown theater district.
BrewerEscalante provided civil engineering consulting during the 1986 design competition. Brewer & Escalante
provided project management consulting to project architect Team HOU during the design of Phase I of the park.
BrewerEscalante provided civil and electrical engineering services to Houston architect Ray & Hollington, for the
final phase of the project. The final phase of the park was completed in 1999.
