description
Relatively unnoticed among the oaks and traffic of the Museum District, this noteworthy building was constructed without cutting down any of the venerable, gnarled trees that characterize the neighborhood. It houses the Glassell Junior School of Art and Museum of Fine Arts, Houston administration offices, with the MFAH offices and the school sharing a common lobby and exhibition space.
