H ouston-based Frankel Design Build has been chosen by U.S. Capital Advisors, LLC, as the premiere builder and developer for a set of unique luxury ranch estates in the historic heart of Texas. Frankel, an award- winning design firm, offers an unprecedented take on ranch life with a series of grandly scaled self-styled homes at Gates Crossing at Washington on the Brazos. Gates Crossing combines modern-day comfort with a close connection to nature to create the perfect country escape. Located in Washington County, the development is less than an hour from shopping, dining, and the seasonal antiques fairs in Round Top, and just over an hour from Houston and Austin. Washington County is widely known as the birthplace of Texas, with Washington-on-the- Brazos the site where the Texas Declaration of Independence was signed in the aftermath of the Battle of the Alamo. The Team The Gates Crossing team is comprised of local landowners, investors, and specialists whose personal knowledge and love of the area is unmatched. General partners Travis and Samantha Medve and Scott Frankel own ranches on the same road that leads into Gates Crossing. "I have known the Frankel family personally and reputationally for years," says U.S. Capital Advisors CEO Patrick Mendenhall.
