PROGRAM:
MTA regional operation shop with garages and offices on a $12,000,000 budget. (With Ben Thompson & Associates)

CONCEPT:
Design combines large openings to increase light from the street with the security of a whole glass block system, which is contrasting with the brick walls and bronze cladding columns. The 60,000 sq.ft. building covers half of the block in a manufacturing district and intends to bring new life into the largely neglected city area.
