after its historically correct renovation and the addition of a wing which was in the original design, but was not built at the time due to lack of funds.  This addition houses the Houston Metropolitan Research Center (HMRC) which is the archival center of the Houston Public Library System.  The Marston Building was sold in 2012 by the City of Houston.
