Alan Jeffrey Bricker

Architect who has done lots of work for governmental entities; very civically involved. His projects include the Jones Plaza in Houston’s Theatre District, several buildings within the Discovery Green downtown park, the Houston Area Women’s Shelter, the Student Services Center for the University of Houston’s downtown campus, more than 80 municipal parks under the auspices of the City of Houston’s Parks to Standard Program, development of the master plan for the Harris County parks system, and the Maverick Activities Center at the University of Texas at Arlington. Several recent projects for the University of Houston have helped to transform its main campus. Those include the Student Recreation and Wellness Center, the West Dining Facility, and the 800-bed Cougar Place student housing projects. The $105 million football stadium, initially accommodating 40,000 spectators but designed to be expanded in the future to add another 20,000 seats, further expands his campus portfolio. Corporate projects include renovation and modernization of One Shell Plaza and Two Shell Plaza for Hines; new branch facilities for Chase Bank in Clear Lake, Sugar Land, and West University; several distribution centers for Glazer’s in Louisiana and Texas; and a corporate headquarters building and manufacturing facility in Houston for Team Industrial Services. Despite his impressive resume, Jeff is just as interested in talking about his family. He met his wife Laurie in high school and proudly supported her during her eight-year service as a board member for Houston ISD, the largest school district in the nation. Their two grown children live in Houston and continue to delight them with a growing number of grandchildren.
