This is a story I pitched numerous times before actually doing it. The historic Lancaster Hotel is located two blocks from where I live. So I've noticed all of the work that has taken place since Hurricane Harvey. The flood destroyed the first two floors of the hotel just a month after new owners took over. They planned a remodel. It became a major renovation. I was given exclusive access to the interior as the work continues.

Years-Long Highway Project Nearing An End
https://www.khou.com/video/traffic/hwy-290-construction-nearing-an-end/285-8127891
The widening of the Northwest Freeway (290) in Houston has been a years-long project and nightmare for thousands of commuters. Many have even changed the way they go to and from work because of the hassle. But the end is finally in sight. Officials say the main lanes will be finished by the end of 2018. Fortunately, the project spokesman is a former KHOU reporter and knew the deadline we faced to put together a 4:00 story (the earliest afternoon newscast). I found a place along the highway for the live shot and showed the area that will eventually become brand new lanes.

Boy's Hand Made With 3D Printer
https://www.khou.com/video/features/8-year-old-boy-thankful-for-new-hand/285-2428590
This was an inspirational story about how technology can help change a kid's life. The elementary school student was born without one of his hands. He often became upset on the playground or in other settings where other kids were able to fully function. That changed once his story got to engineering students at the University of Houston and a group called e-Nable. They used a 3D printer help craft a new hand. Little Rafael told me he finally felt like a real kid. He didn't appear to be letting it hold him back.
