(Under Construction)
Exterior Envelope and Value Engineering From the beginning this project was over budget by20%. To save the project we developed a variety of cladding concepts and changes to the structure that would maintaint the “Design Intent� while maintaining the performance of the Envelope. The team that assembled this project were in 3 cities: Washington, DC, LosAngeles and New York. As the Lead architect on the project the plan was to divide the project into components that would place responsibilities of the expertise in the appropriate teams.
Exterior Envelope and Value Engineering These sketches illustrate the interplay of Revirt Modeling and skethes which explored the realities of contruction. We used this method to reduce the modeling time by integratiing contruction techniques and methods of construction responsibilities as well as understanding the details that would achieve the look.
Meetings with Consultants and Coordination Many of the meetings we used three dimensional cutaways to coordinate with the departments and faculty to illustrate the options they had with relationships and their Space.
Plan Development:
Add Alternate and Phasing Studies: The sketches to left illustrate the many explorations we went through to get the project within budget.
88 Regent Street Jersey City, NJ 2017
The 88 Regent is one of the first highrise projects in the Liberty Harbor North Redevelopment Plan. This 560,000 GSF Mixed Use Tower includes 392 Residential units, 41,000 SF of Amenities and 15,000 SF of Retail at the base. Also included is a 300 car Parking with a large amenity deck on the top deck. The tower is divided into three distinct zones as illustrated in this rendering . The project was presented to planning and approved with three deviations from the Redevelopment Plan and all responding to site specific conditions. The base of the tower 9 feet below the DFE, Design Flood Elevation requiring special flood proofing elements. The 12 floors directly above have a mixture of residential and amenity uses. The transition to a tower occurs on the 13 where a double height amenity floor occurs and tower above has residential units with Amenity spaces at the top. Construction is slated for 2020.
Modularity : Plan and Elevation Development The integration of a unitized curtainwall and modular plan layouts were the drivers in the proportions of the plans and elevations. The plans were controlled by the setback requiremments, views of manhattan and locations of the entrances governed primarily by the flood elevation. There is a seven foot grade change from one edge of the building to the other. These are the early development sketches illustrating the southern facde and the upper portion of the tower was twisted to get the views to the east of Manahattan.
Also illustrated are the studies of positioning the entrances which had to navigate the level of grade and the cores fixed by egress requirements.
Plan Development Senior Project Architect: Development of plans and unit count based on client unit mix had to be developed while integrating the IBC and ANSI A117.1(ADA). Sizing of elevators ans well as stair capacity was integrated into this mixed use tower. These are the conceptual layouts fomulated before we drew up plans for Site Plan Submission.
Rockefeller Arts Center Addition and Renovation Fredonia, NY - 2014 Gwathmey Siegel Associates Architects
Project Management: Develop the custom Zinc Facade for a Performing Arts Academic Building . This building is attached to the I.M. Pei Fedronia Performing Arts Center . Pei’s parti was similar to his other campus masterplan where the entire campus was constructed out of architectural Concrete. Attaching a new facility while applying a change in materials was both challenging aestetically as well as technically challenging. My role on this project was to weave in all the requirements of the Construction Manual provided by the SUCF.
Ther are twoprimary materials on this project which were used to express an integration of the dominant concrete materia on campus while weaving a metallic and glass box. To keep the custom facade within budget it was necessary to develop a sytem on components that woud reduce the cost by forming a standardized kit of parts while maintaining the unique variations of the metal screen language.
Seperation of Occupanncies:
The set was comprised of a grid of plans so the very complex integration of circulation with its network of egresses from adjacent buldings could be accompished. The demands on eggress from the existing building through this new addition created a series of safeareas to assure the safe and legal egress of occupants. Adding to the complexity were the Studios for Pottery along side dance both requiring special characteristic to insure that the uses would not delude the egress stategy.
The upper floors were confined to calssrooms and Dance Studios as the lower portion was dedicated to pottery and exterior courtyards with kilns. All the specail mechanical equipment was place on the roof. Isolation of sound as well as olfactory issues created by the equpment had to be maintained.
