Manuel J. Pereiras, AIA PAU - Pereiras Architects Ubiquitous Union City, NJ manueljpereiras@gmail.com Le Pain Quotidien Rockefeller Center New York, NY Approximately 3,700 square feet on the ground floor of an existing office building was creatively converted for use as a Le Pain Quotidien Restaurant. RSC Architects, working with project managers from Le Pain Quotidien, designed the layout for this elegant eatery in Rockefeller Center, across the street from Radio City Music Hall. The spacious restaurant consists of a bakery/retail area, dining area with two large communal tables, kitchen and restrooms. The restaurant also has an outdoor patio area that is used for outdoor dining during the warmer months. Kenneth P. Mihalik, AIA RSC Architects Cliffside Park, NJ www.rscarchitects.com Annual Member Issue 4Q.2013 www.alnnj.org 4Q President’s Column Spring and summer were a flurry of activity for the AIA across all levels of the organization. The National Convention was held in June this year in Denver, CO with a theme of “Leadership for Architecture, Leadership Beyond Architecture”. Ideas were put forward to identify where and how architects can participate in civic leadership as well as how architecture itself can better environments and create a better life for communities. Among the keynote speakers were Blake Mycoskie, TOMS Founder, a company that gives a pair of shoes to a child in an impoverished community for every pair of shoes sold; Cameron Sinclair, Co-founder, Architecture for Humanity, an organization that identifies communities around the globe that can be given a leg up by improving their built environment in some way, be it a school or a community center; and finally, General Colin L. Powell, USA (Ret.) Secretary of State (2001-2005) who laid out the risks and rewards of leadership. All were wonderful and inspiring speakers. The Convention is an inspiring experience that should be enjoyed and supported by our members and community. Along the lines of civic engagement, I had the tremendous opportunity to participate in an AIA SDAT (Sustainable Design Assessment Team) this past spring and summer. Spearheaded by AIANJ President Jack Purvis, a group of architects, planners and engineers came together to assist in developing concepts to rebuild Camp Osborn, a six-block community in Brick Township that was almost totally leveled following Storm Sandy in the fall of 2012. Camp Osborn began as a fishing village of tents in the 20s and evolved over the years into a close knit community of homes, many that had been in the hands of individual families for several generations. During the storm most all of the 118 homes had been washed away or burned the day after, as fires went unchecked due to the inability of emergency vehicles to reach them. The homes had been granted conditional zoning prior to the storm but after the storm were required to adhere to new zoning rules and flood plain elevations. The SDAT held a series of meetings with the community and town officials, and through design charettes, developed a scheme for rebuilding. The scheme was given conditional approval and had an overwhelming buy-in from the community, providing a path to begin to rebuild. I have never been more proud to be a part of something or more proud of my professional colleagues for their effort and dedication. the architects league Our community as a whole is socially engaged and gives a great deal – from Habitat for Humanity, to Canstruction, to our members who serve on boards in their local municipalities as well as our own micro community of the Architects League. But we can do more. I encourage everyone to consider how they can use their skills as designers and problem solvers to assist an individual or community near them. It’s a valuable and rewarding experience. Andrew Mikhael, AIA Joyce Raspa, Esq., AIA Kim V. Vierheilig, AIA Jennifer Carson, Assoc. AIA We still have some great programs ahead for this fall.

It could never be more true than with our graphic 4Q issues of the Leagueline! It has been 4 years, but WHAT WE DO: 4, has been the opportunity to select a project or two that you have designed, have had built or is now on the boards and heading for construction. WHAT WE DO: 4 is getting it “out there” in front of your collegues and anyone else who sees our great quarterly publication. It is available to all members – here is the work of the 30 plus who took the opportunity to share their creativity with all of us.

This room is the focal point of the project providing a flexible gathering-reading space with a “tree-house” view. Anthony Iovino, AIA Arcari+Iovino Architects, PC Little Ferry, NJ www.aiarchs.com 4 Leagueline 4Q 2013 The Quarterly Newsletter of the Architects League of Northern New Jersey LAN was hired by Passaic Board of Education to renovate nine of their outdated Multi-Purpose Rooms into inspiring, playful spaces students would appreciate. Through the use of bold color combinations, dynamic ceiling canopies, decorative lighting and unique floor patterns the spaces were transformed. Kim Vierheilig, AIA LAN Associates Engineering, Planning, Architecture, Surveying, Inc. Midland Park, NJ www.lan-nj.com hat We Do Upper Montclair Train Station Upper Montclair, NJ When it was completed in 1902, the Broad Exchange Building was the largest office building in America, with the highest estimated real estate value in Manhattan. At the heart of the Financial District and listed on the National Register of Historic Places, 25 Broad was converted into condominiums in 1997. Over the years, some of the building’s characteristic architectural features had either deteriorated or been removed deliberately, altering the appearance of the facade and roofline. Previous efforts to address deterioration used materials that were incompatible with the existing structure and, often, did not match the aesthetic qualities of the original building. Using photographic documentation found in archives, Hoffmann Architects designed replicas of lost elements, restoring the decorative features and profile of the building as it first appeared in 1902. The facade and window restoration remediated faulty repairs and corrected poor workmanship and incorrect material selection, resolving building envelope distress while meeting stringent guidelines for the treatment of historic properties. Juan Kuriyama, AIA Hoffmann Architects Inc New York, NY www.hoffarchs.com The original train station circa 1890 was totally destroyed by a fire. The only element salvaged was the front portico roof. My firm redesigned the new building and received approvals from the NJ Historical Society and approvals from the Montclair Historical Society. The new building is now being used as a restaurant.

Ralph Rosenberg, AIA, PP, LEED AP NK Architects Morristown, NJ www.nkarchitects.com Transformer(ed) Commercial Building North Arlington, NJ Transformer(ed) is a modern conversion of an early 1900’s public utility building located in North Arlington, New Jersey. Purchased by a private trucking company, the owner envisioned a first floor mechanic’s garage and office entry with a second floor executive suite. Our goal was to preserve the building to the greatest extent possible, design in harmony with the existing building and make as many sustainable choices as possible. Dan D’Agostino, AIA plan architecture llc Little Falls, NJ www.planarchitecturellc.com An adaptive reuse of a former automobile showroom, the new facility is the company’s Northeast Corporate Headquarters, and their facility for interviewing, hiring and training new Retail Store management staff.

Sonenshine, AIA SNS Architects & Engineers, PC Montvale, NJ www.sns-arch-eng.com Leagueline 4Q 2013 The Quarterly Newsletter of the Architects League of Northern New Jersey 5 Annual Member Issue Broad Exchange Building New York, NY Restored Church – Blessed Kateri Tekakwitha Parish Sparta, NJ Due to ongoing water infiltration and building exterior maintenance issues, the parish retained Hoffmann Architects to perform an investigation into the causes of leaks and deterioration, and to recommend a remedial course of action. The investigation revealed evidence of water infiltration at the building perimeter, originating at absent flashings and open sealant joints in parapet coping stones. In addition, the stucco displayed significant cracking and de-lamination, and exterior facing stone was stained by rust in many locations. Hoffmann Architects produced contract documents for the full scope of recommended work, assisted the church during the bidding and contract negotiation process, and provided construction administration services for a repair program that included a full roof system replacement, parapet repair, window sealant replacement, exterior stucco repair and coating, rust stain removal, and other facade repairs to restore building envelope integrity. What We Do: Juan Kuriyama, AIA Hoffmann Architects Inc New York, NY www.hoffarchs.com Bolger Community Center & Ambulance Corp.

Education Commons Felician College Lodi, NJ Our firm was engaged to revive a 30,000sf former library building in Rutherford which has been unused for 14 years. The building’s existing frame contains seven different floor heights in a “split-level” arrangement.

Designed in 1928 by Clarence Stein and Henry Wright, Radburn is celebrated as the first planned “town for the Motor Age” in America. Radburn was to be an experiment in living where all the necessary amenities commonly found in cities were to be planned and built in this self-contained community, located in the rural town of Fair Lawn, New Jersey. Schools, businesses and shopping were designed to be accessible and linked to all residents by common parks, greenways and paths, safe and removed from roadways and busy streets. Small lots on cul-de-sacs provided an economical and efficient plan that encouraged all residents to share and enjoy all the common open space and walkways that joined them together. Since its inception, Radburn has served as a textbook for scholars of Town Planning and a model for New Urbanism. In 1975 Radburn was entered into the U.S. Department of the Interior’s National Register of Historic Places. A special thank you to Suzanne and Louis DiGeronimo for hosting the dinner at their home, and to Joel Ives for hosting the BOT meeting at his office. 10 Leagueline 4Q 2013 The Quarterly Newsletter of the Architects League of Northern New Jersey T-Shirt Sponsors: Ace Reprographics Arcari + Iovino Architects, PC AdvanTech AE Empowerment Kallen & Lemelson Consulting Engineers, LLP NK Architects ZIP System Leagueline Revit/AutoCAD Class Radburn Walking Tour September 19, 2013 Leagueline Editor Joyce Raspa, AIA, Esq.
