The Gramercy, New York, NY

Early in my career, I was given the opportunity to work along side a very dynamic team to develop The Gramercy Building in the Gramercy neighborhood in Manhattan. I was on this project for 2 1/2 years, preparing construction documents, coordinating engineering systems, & working on site as the field architect. I prepared over 200 sketches for complicated details & worked through construction problems with contractors. I was influenced heavily by the interior design team, YOO by Starck, and Michael Shvo's marketing team. Meeting with these teams regularly allowed me to realize their visions and use this influence when preparing construction details & coordination. 


I attached some images that I took while working on site. I have hundreds of construction photos. First image: lounge space while studs are being placed. Second image: skyline view from penthouse level. Third image: one of the three interior finish palettes, this one is called CULTURE. Fourth image: interior view of one of the bedrooms.
