Houston-based Reh Burwell Partners, which has an Austin office, designed the $3-million facility. It accommodates administrative, social service and food preparation functions. With the state-of-the-art cooking operations, Meals on Wheels can cook four times more meals. It was working at 25% over capacity in a kitchen in its previous location at 2222 Rosewood Ave.
"Meals on Wheels was feeling the pressure of pent-up growth over the past several years," John Knowles, Reh Burwell's partner in charge, said in a press release.
