New York City, a place steeped in history and architectural marvels, is adorned with a wide array of historical buildings that tell tales of a bygone era. One integral part of these historical structures are their windows, which not only provide a glimpse into the past but also contribute to the aesthetic charm of the city.

To Restore or Replace?
Restoring and replacing windows are two distinct approaches when it comes to preserving the architectural integrity of a building.
35 East 9th Street | Penthouse Renovation
Built in 1925, 35 East 9th Street is one of three (29, 35, 45) buildings designed by Helmle & Corbett Architects. Helmle & Corbett were American architects primarily active in New York City but also completed projects across the United States and in London.
7 South Portland Avenue | Exterior Restoration
This once elegant Italianate style Mansion, built in 1930, as a multi-family co-op, is located steps from Fort Green Park. South Portland is named after Portland Place, an upscale street that connected Regent Street and Regent Park Terraces, one of London’s finest areas.
The Importance of Natural Lighting in Exhibits
Lighting plays a significant role in developing interaction between humans and museum artifacts in one defined space. Typically, museum environments have two types of light–natural and artificial.
