LANCASTER VIST

We took an office trip, last Friday, to check in on the projects in downtown Lancaster.

LMAG (Lancaster Museum & Art Gallery) is starting to show its shape next to Arbor Lofts.

The "Jewel Box" sticks out over the improved Blvd.

 The lobby of LMAG is a two story space with a skylight.  

 Sagebrush showing its colors behind BEX and the plaza.

 The townhouses at Sagebrush already have there first residents.

The form of the Sagebrush tower wraps on to the ceiling of the parking area under it.
