Hoerr Schaudt was engaged to collaborate with the developer and the project’s design architect, OMA, on the planning and design of the garden roof that serves as the crowning element of the POST project. The building’s green roof or Skylawn, as it is called, has become one of Houston’s most dynamic and unique outdoor settings. Comprising five acres atop the former post office building, the project is the largest rooftop park in Texas and offers unparalleled panoramic views of the city’s iconic skyline. The roofscape plays host to an array of functions including restaurants, event spaces, gardens, and will soon add an operating one-acre urban farm.
