HOUSTON, TX, June 08, 2012 (Press-News.org) Taylor Morrison has announced plans for Enclave at Lake Pointe, its first townhome community in the Houston area. Enclave at Lake Pointe will feature 64 detached, 3-story townhomes priced from the $470,000s. Most of the townhomes in the gated enclave will back up to historic Oyster Creek just north of Fluor's corporate office in Lake Pointe Town Center in Sugar Land, TX.
Lake Point Town Center is a 190-acre, mixed-use development offering upscale shopping, fine restaurants, and health care facilities. Whole Foods, Post Oak Grille, and St. Luke's Hospital are within walking distance. The center is located at the north corner of the intersection of U.S. Highway 59 and State Highway 6, and west of Sugar Lakes Drive in Sugar Land, TX.
Presales at Enclave at Lake Pointe are being handled from Avalon at Telfair. The Calistoga model is scheduled to open in mid July.
The Brownstone Series features four plans with 3,249 to 3,464-square-feet. The 3- and 4-bedroom plans offer buyers a variety of options, including 2-person elevators from the first floor. Covered back patios and balconies are standard.
"With three levels, we knew some families would want an elevator, especially multi-generational families. That's why we have an elevator design for each plan. Covered patios, balconies, morning rooms and sitting areas expand living space outdoors and accent the urban lifestyle," said Amy Haywood-Rino vice president of sales and marketing for Taylor Morrison Houston.
In three of the floor plans the first floor has an entry foyer and a large multipurpose space. The first floor can be accessed from the front door or from the 2-car garage. The Calistoga model features a recreation room and media room with a half-bath option on the first floor.
Active living areas--kitchen, family room and formals--are located on the second floor. Sleeping quarters are on the third floor; but options for additional bedrooms and baths are available in each plan. In the Rutherford, the master suite is on the first floor, the third floor has a recreation room, media room, a bedroom and bathroom with optional configurations available.
According to Haywood-Rino, each plan has four elevations featuring a combination of stucco and stone, window styles, and tiled roofs. The back yards will have wrought iron fences along Oyster Creek. Amenities include community green spaces, an outdoor waterfront gazebo and a dog park.
Wood flooring and ceramic tile are being used extensively throughout most of the plans. Other high-end features include granite countertops, stainless steel built-in appliances, crown molding and an interactive high-tech package. The Taylor Morrison Interactive Home package at Enclave at Lake Pointe includes front door monitoring, cameras, intercom, messaging and home audio--all accessible via a home interface panel, smart phones and tablets. An interactive home package is currently included in all Taylor Morrison homes in the Houston area.
Taylor Morrison is building homes priced from the $100,000s to over $1 million in 21 locations in the Houston area. The Houston division is located at 5353 West Sam Houston Parkway North, Suite 190, Houston, TX 77041, 713-598-3000.

Mount Sinai researchers develop a multi-target approach to treating tumors
2012-06-08
Researchers from Mount Sinai School of Medicine developed a cancer model built in the fruit fly Drosophila, then used it to create a whole new approach to the discovery of cancer treatments. The result is an investigational compound AD80 that precisely targets multiple cancer genes. Tested in mouse models, the drug proved far more effective and less toxic than standard cancer drugs, which generally focus on a single target. This is the first time that whole-animal screening has been used in a rational, step-wise approach to polypharmacology. The study appears online in ...

Helping adolescents root out stigma associated with mental illness
2012-06-08
Health experts agree that reducing the stigma associated with adolescent mental illness is an essential step toward increasing the number of teenagers who seek the help they need.
But, say researchers at Case Western Reserve in the Journal of Nursing Measurement, the relative dearth of data regarding stigma in this age group makes tackling the topic particularly tough. Not only is adolescent mental health stigma rarely studied, but even less is known about the accuracy of measures used to assess it.
Explained Melissa Pinto, PhD, RN, KL2 Clinical Research Scholar and ...

Both 14-year-olds are now serving life sentences without the possibility of parole. Both of their cases were recently reviewed by the U.S. Supreme Court, which will soon rule on whether sentencing young offenders to life without parole is cruel and ...
