Marble Fairbanks is developing a design for a new covered soccer field and expanded facilities for FC Harlem. Using soccer to “connect with young people on and off the field,” FC Harlem is a community-based outreach program whose mission is to empower under-served youth, providing them with the “skills and support they need to be fearless in life.”
Stay tuned for future updates!
Marble Fairbanks with James Lima Planning + Development and Special Project Office has been selected as one of five teams to participate in Re-Envisioning Branch Libraries.
The Study, sponsored by The Architectural League of New York in conjunction with Center for an Urban Future, “will identify the challenges that branch libraries face and propose design solutions to stimulate conversation about means to support New York’s three library systems and the vital services they provide.”
Join us for the launch of We Build the City, a new publication from ORO Editions featuring projects developed under New York City’s Design + Construction Excellence Program. The book centers around the work of 45 firms and includes Marble Fairbanks’ projects at Glen Oaks Branch Library and The Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture.
