Special Projects

Special projects are those that don’t lend themselves to easy categorization within the markets that we normally operate in. These projects can be just as important to our clients and can be just as challenging or rewarding to us, sometimes more so. Although we cannot list all of the different special projects we have worked on, we hope the sampling on this page tells you that we can tackle just about any assignment or commission a client would offer us.

POOL HOUSE
Kaplen – DeCaro Residence
Chappaqua, NY

Pool House

In collaboration with Tate Associates, Landscape Architects we were asked to design a pool house as part of the program for a new pool and landscaping project at this residence. Ten years ago the homeowners had built a lovely home that was of a French Country style. The challenge would be to design the pool at a much smaller size in the same style, incorporating materials and details already on the house. The building is only 15’ x 25’ but has a full kitchen, full bath, laundry, storage and sitting area with plasma TV. Believe it or not, town ordinances required fire sprinklers in the pool house! The builder was Zeigler & Associates of Brookfield, CT.

CONDOMINIUM CONVERSION
Sheldon Terrace Apartments
New Haven, CT

Although no architectural design was part of this project, we were commissioned to lead a team in assisting a developer to convert three apartment buildings into condominiums. We prepared as-built plans, inspected the buildings and, with our consultants, prepared the engineering reports required by State Statutes for the proper filing and declaration of a condo conversion.


DUE DILIGENCE
Various sites and clients

Over the years we have provided services for real estate developers and corporations considering the purchase or refinancing of various properties. Our services have included building inspections, as-built plans, researching the permit and code compliance status of buildings, and advising on projected facility improvements and costs. Clients for whom we have provided these services include Storage USA, Redbrick Partners, and Stratford Development Corp. You would be surprised what significant issues we have discovered that were missed by attorneys, property inspectors, building inspectors, and real estate agents.
