    Interfaith Difference Making

    New Midtown campus to be a big boost for aging baby boomers

    Few groups watch the aging baby boomer generation with more urgency than Interfaith Ministries for Greater Houston.

    Its marquee program, Meals on Wheels, serves more than 4,500 home-bound senior citizens in the Houston area one hot, healthy meal each day, but the approaching deluge of elderly has had Interfaith Ministries on the lookout for several years to replace its current digs — an office on Montrose and an overcrowded warehouse on U.S. 59.

    And this week, the organization's governing body gathered with area leaders to break ground on a new campus that stretches over two city blocks in Midtown.

    "This is not just about a new building," Mayor Annise Parker said. "It's about a serious investment in the quality of life for seniors today and into the future."

    A former bank building, on a lot bound by Main and Fannin, Stuart and Francis Streets, will soon be converted into a 39,000 square foot Interfaith Ministries of Greater Houston Herzstein Building, with administrative offices for all of the organization's 145 employees and a conference center to promote interfaith dialogue, to provide refugee services and to accommodate disaster preparedness and response teams.

    A new construction on an adjacent block bound by Elgin and Stuart, Fannin and San Jacinto, will be home to a 14,000 square foot Meals on Whiles Distribution Center, which will have the capacity to serve 10,000 meals each day.

    Interfaith Ministries is well on its way to fulfilling a $12.5 million capital campaign. Find more information about its fundraising goals here.

    Interfaith Ministries will take over two blocks in Midtown.

    1529 Indiana Street offers seamless living, where inside and outside elements blend together.

    When home buyers want something that fully blends interior and outdoor space, the something they want would be a lot like 1529 Indiana Street. This bespoke residence, tucked into a corner lot along a historic brick-paved street, partially hidden behind a wide, wooden fence, is a beautiful expression of modern design.

    It’s on the market for $2.575 million and represented by Vicki Barazandeh of Martha Turner Sotheby's International Realty. The 3,900-square-foot home has three bedrooms and three full baths, along with a host of stunning details.

    Originally belonging to a builder, developer, and art collector who designed the home in collaboration with Ragni Studio, the Hyde Park home has a downstairs main living area that opens to the pool and grass, creating a great room. The open space provides incredible sight lines, and the floor-to-ceiling windows allow for loads of natural light. The second-level primary bedroom floats over the pool below, providing shade while offering sweeping treetop views.

    1529 Indiana Street offers seamless living, where inside and outside elements blend together.

    Exquisite details abound throughout the home. Think floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors, book-matched stone slabs, and a modern white stucco exterior with warm Brazilian walnut Ipe accents. In the chef's kitchen, find Poliform cabinetry, Calacatta marble, Dornbracht fixtures, and Gaggenau appliances.

    Surrounded by mature oaks, 1529 Indiana lends itself to entertaining, with spaces for family and friends both inside and out. Those with an art collection will love the way the home lends itself to showcasing an array of paintings, prints, and other objects d’art.

    Those seeking a home that stands out from the crowd will want to look closely here.
