On practice of architecture
MLK Drive station on the Hudson Bergen Light Rail Transit was a centerpiece of the MLK Drive Redevelopment Plan. It brought vitality and resurgence to a neglected Jersey City neighborhood by promoting smart growth.
The addition to the Historic Town Hall in Kearny NJ welcomes you through an entrance portal reminiscent of the Buddhist Torana. The entrance portal is derived from a stone pediment that existed before the addition was built.
“Project Reclaim” set urban revitalization in motion in Jersey City’s MLK Drive neighborhood. The project involved gut renovation of a quintessential Bank building and a new office building on two adjacent lots. The entrance to this project was marked by two minimalist pillars inspired by Indian architecture.
