Visual style approved; specific building details still need architectural accuracy checks. Illustrations are raster references and will need production-quality asset preparation before use as small site graphics.

This is the approved Sheet A artwork, cropped directly from the original illustration sheet. The earlier simplistic SVG studies are archived separately. These image-based illustrations are design references, not final photographic verification of each architectural feature.

Architectural accuracy review · November 2026

These are the actual Sheet A illustrations you selected, not generic redrawn SVGs. The style is approved, but several landmark details need correction before final website use. Highest priorities: Williams Tower crown, Astrodome roof ribs, and San Jacinto Monument star. We also need to verify that the Julia Ideson arch shown corresponds to a real element of that building.

For photographic evidence, see Williams Tower (Hines), Astrodome historic nomination, San Jacinto Museum, and Julia Ideson entrance. The imagery below remains unchanged until revised artwork is compared in this same style.
