We recently visited Urban Dove Team Charter School in Brooklyn (UD). It was wonderful to be back at UD, and learn of all of the new and exciting activities and programs they have in place for the current school year. We toured the school and their facilities, including their newest addition, an outdoor vegetable garden.
We also visited the gym, a project we collaborated with UD on in 2020. Over the years, we’ve worked on a series of projects with UD, including the development of a strategic plan to expand the school across all NYC boroughs, as well as the design of their Brooklyn school as a renovation to an existing building, and the development of a graphic identity for the school among other design projects. We continue to be inspired by UD’s incredible work, and look forward to our next visit!
It was an honor to attend Urban Dove’s 21st Annual Evening with the Dove. Each year, we look forward to the UD Gala as an opportunity to celebrate this incredible organization, the Urban Dove Community, and those that are dedicated to supporting the growth of the young people that Urban Dove serves. We are looking forward to all of the success and exciting work that the next year will bring for the school. Congratulations to all of the individuals that were recognized!
We are delighted to have had the privilege of being sponsors for the AIANY Honors and Awards Luncheon held at Cipriani Wall Street. The event provided the opportunity for us to gather alongside a diverse gathering of architects, industry professionals, and esteemed members of the Honors Committee, all united in celebrating and recognizing the exceptional accomplishments of this year’s AIA award recipients. We extend our congratulations to all the award winners!
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!
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.
