That's great, and nice to see attention given to The University in the northeast.

I loved going in that building when I was a UT student. Great collection of art. I'd love to go back when more items are properly on display.

Yeah its been a disaster zone for well over a year now. It'll be sweet when they finish it. Course the new museum should be awesome as well.

I was on the 40 acres today and went by the Ransom Center. A lot of that wood that's been up around the walls has been taken down and there is a large portion of the building that has glass walls. Each block of glass has a different image frosted into it. I think it's beautiful.

That's because they hired a competent architect to do it (actually a few).

The Blanton on the other hand....

BOO --

No kidding -- those two fools ruined an opportunity for a great piece or architecture in Austin.
