Comcast SportsNet
Houston, Texas
This regional sports network affiliate of Comcast SportsNet sought an urban location near Houston’s downtown sports venues for its headquarters. A former retail storefront fit the bill, with the possibility of engaging passersby through the large acoustical-glass window that maximizes visibility between the excitement on street and in the studio. Unique challenges included accommodating the station’s extraordinary power requirements and the project’s fast-track construction schedule. Other advantages of the urban location are proximity to and views of team stadiums, giving this already efficient new space even greater relevance and impact—and all at a reasonable cost.
