Houston's Art Deco

           For our ninth trip for HOGS, we had the opportunity to view the amazing structures and building located in Houston, TX. We, or at least I, had never seen most of the places that we went to that day. I really liked the bank that we went to, because it was really fancy compared to others that I have seen before. Inside the bank, the structure was very detailed and it had a lot of description. There was also a triangle (pyramid) that was in some of the architecture in the bank, and it made me think if it had ties with the free masons, since a lot of them have positions in government, specially in the economic sectors of the country. They tend to have a lot of control over that part of government so that could be a reason why they had that symbol in the bank since the bank does deal with economy. After that we went to a very tall architectural building where we went up an elevator to the highest part where tourists can go. We were able to see all of Houston from there  and some known places such as The Aquarium and other things. It felt really nice being up there and looking everything down instead of up like most of the time. It was a really nice experience to see our great city from up high.
