Adaptive Reuse

Lake Flato advocates for adaptive reuse wherever possible. The firm has repurposed over three million square feet of existing structures into mixed-use offices, multifamily housing and hotels. Breathing new life into old, vacant buildings reinvigorates our urban core while preserving the historic fabric of our cities. This inherently sustainable act reduces operational and embodied carbon while creating authentic spaces imbued with a sense of place and purpose.
