New Hamp to get small wings
The most notable announcement in the OPDC’s recent spate of updates (the changes include a map-based reorganization of the Projects Page) is the news that Fleck & Lewis Architects are designing the New Hampshire Hall renovation. The project page has a full set of plans and four detailed elevation drawings. Instead of inserting a fire stair within a column of former bedrooms, the architects will put a symmetrical pair of subsidiary one-bay wings at the ends of the building and devote each to a new stair and entrance. These wings will reproduce or even elaborate on the circle-square motif of the original building’s gables. Although it is unfortunate that the project includes the demolition of the building’s historic windows, the overall project appears sensitive to the character of the hall and continues the theme of its sympathetic 1985 Hilgenhurst rear addition. |
