We had the pleasure of hosting a high school student, Kelly, in our office as part of the Center for Architecture’s Discover Architecture Program. It was a wonderful experience to have Kelly join us, and we are grateful to the Center for Architecture for making this opportunity possible. We were thrilled that the program was back in person this year, as it allowed us to come together in our office, tour the neighborhood around the office and learn about local architecture, and pay a visit to Greenpoint Library.
We enjoyed getting to know our student, Kelly, and wish her the best of luck as she explores her interest in architecture!
We are thrilled to announce that our team has secured a multi-year contract with the Trust for Governors Island, a nonprofit organization responsible for the management and redevelopment of the historic Governors Island. This partnership will allow us to collaborate with the Trust on a range of architectural design projects over the next three years, as we work towards the goal of transforming the island into a vibrant public space that is accessible to all. We are grateful for this opportunity and excited to embark on this journey with the Trust.
Our rooftop addition at Saint Luke’s School is complete, welcoming students for a variety of outdoor activities. The addition expands the school’s ground-level outdoor space and provides the opportunity for increased curricular, extracurricular, and athletic activities for students from kindergarten through 8th grade. New rooftop spaces have panoramic views of the city and include a multipurpose play deck for a variety of sports and an outdoor learning zone for experimentation with nature that can also be used for special events.
We will be continuing our work with the General Services Administration (GSA) for another five years! We are thankful for the projects we have worked on through this contract, including multiple feasibility studies with the National Park Service (NPS), the new NPB Headquarters, and the Gateway Center that will house the National Parks of Boston (NPB) Orientation Center and the USS Constitution Museum. We are happy to extend our relationship with the GSA and look forward to new and exciting projects.
Over the weekend, we hosted before-hours tours of Greenpoint Library and Environmental Education Center as part of OHNY Weekend. The tour was led by Jason Roberts, project architect, and offered a unique look into the 15,000 square foot community library and hub for environmental awareness, activism, and education.
