Say hi to Ethan Ortiz! An Operations Intern in our Austin office and a student at Texas Tech University, Ethan spent his summer at One Lady Bird Lake.
Taking every opportunity to learn, Ethan saw how the project comes together, from three levels below grade to the active deck. Since then, crews have continued deck turnovers and concrete pours, adding a few more floors as the 686,000-square-foot structure rises toward 18 levels above grade.
Thank you to the project team and trade partners who shared their experience, answered questions and brought Ethan into the work. Have a great school year, Ethan!
