Delancey Street Private Residence

Architect: Stephen Varenhorst Architects

This three-storey town home is essentially being gutted and rebuilt. During demolition, the second floor proved to be so structurally unsound that it was removed entirely and rebuilt — without an impact on the project schedule. Project components will include a new stairway, a first-floor powder room, a master bath with glass tile and a new HVAC system.

Two Delancey Street Private Residences

Architects: Rachel Schade of Schade and Bolender and David S. Traub Architects.

Side-by-side neighbors independently decided to add rear garages with kitchens above and P&P is handling the very different and unusual details — including negotiating with the two friendly neighbors to split the cost of replacing a common wall that, once demolition was underway, proved to be unstable. Both projects are proceeding simultaneously with entirely different construction techniques and materials.

Barclay Hotel Private Residence

Architect: Christopher Beardsley

This fast track project involves converting a number of former en suite hotel rooms into a luxury residence. It was awarded to P&P because the husband and wife owners wanted to use the same team that had completed a similar project on another floor. Staring on the day after settlement, the job is proceeding “on the fly,” with new plan components being provided virtually daily.
