As we head into the summer months, the Phase II Capitol Complex team is focused on completing each successive level of the two state office buildings and the elevator shafts for the underground parking below the Texas Capitol Mall Extension. Temperatures are starting to rise, so the team has activated heat exhaustion prevention and monitoring measures to protect the health and safety of the workers and keep the project progressing on each site.
1501 Lavaca State Office Building (Pictured Above) – The frame of the building is steadily rising with forming and concrete pours currently on level 6. The building’s topping out is scheduled for October 2025. “Topping Out” celebrates the completion of the frame with the placing of the last beam at the top of the structure.
1500 Congress State Office Building – The project team is currently working on concrete forming and pours for level 1. The building’s topping out is scheduled for January 2026.
Texas Capitol Mall Extension site – Work continues to complete the stem wall for the elevator shafts.
