phase 2 project overview
Master Plan Summary
“The 2016 Texas Capitol Complex Master Plan establishes the Capitol Complex as a destination that celebrates the Texas State Capitol with civic spaces, shaded pedestrian-friendly streets, continuous shade, and connections to the surrounding community.”
The Texas Facilities Commission (TFC) is the State agency responsible for implementing Phase One of the master plan. To effectively manage the project, TFC has contracted with Architect of Record, HOK; Construction Manager at Risk, JE Dunn; and Project Controls Manager, Square One, to collaborate on this $900 million effort.
These firms are providing recommendations on state-of-the-art design and construction practices, and are assisting TFC in preparing conceptual designs and defining a project management plan for the entire Phase II development.
The completion of the Texas Capitol Mall will create a strong link between the northern portion of the Capitol Complex and the Capitol grounds proper.
The Capitol Complex Project will allow the consolidation of staff currently working in leased space. Consolidating staff has the potential to create operational efficiencies between and within agencies, provide visitors with easier access to agency offices, and eliminate the cost of leased space for these offices.
