Sophia Lane and Chris Flory were representing TRW at the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute Institute Career Fair. They met with undergraduates and discussed TRW and our work in historic preservation, restoration, and adaptive reuse. It was a great way to spend a chilly - but sunny! - day in Troy.

We're excited to see that the project at 18 South Main St. in Voorheesville is receiving some coverage in local media!

TRW is assisting with the programming and planning, as well as adaptive reuse, of the historic storefront, which was first utilized as a hay & grain business in the late 1800s. The project and its progress are discussed here:

The money will be used for the first phases of renovation, including asbestos abatement, removing non-original building additions, and stabilizing the structure, which was determined to have “good bones.”

The journey of the last ten years has been defined by our passion for the art of restoration, renovation, and adaptive reuse.

One of the projects that truly embodies our mission is the St. Anthony's Church Renovation. After a devastating fire, we were privileged to work with the Schenectady parish to restore the church. We recreated the original decorative interior, highlighting the surviving wood truss ceiling and beautiful stained glass. We also created a more accessible space by reconfiguring the altar and adding custom liturgical furnishings.

We are incredibly grateful to our clients, partners, and our talented team. Your trust has been the cornerstone of our success. Here's to the next ten years of preserving the past and shaping the future, one building at a time.

Over the past decade, we've had the honor of working on some of the country's most significant cultural sites. One of our most notable projects is the Yaddo mansion in Saratoga Springs, NY. Our team was entrusted with the intricate task of restoring the exterior envelope of this National Historic Landmark. This project highlights our dedication to protecting irreplaceable structures that are at the heart of our nation's history.

For 10 years, we have been dedicated to rebuilding communities by design. As we celebrate this milestone, we're reflecting on some of our most meaningful projects, including our work on the Ellis Island Recreation Pavilion.

Working in partnership with Save Ellis Island, Inc. and the National Park Service, our team documented the 1932 pavilion's restoration. This included meticulously restoring and replicating deteriorated terracotta, repairing steel windows, and rehabilitating the building's brick walls.

The result is a preserved piece of history transformed into a venue for public events. We're honored to have played a part in this project and look forward to continuing our mission to bring new life to historic landmarks.

Last Wednesday night Steve Reilly and Daniel Wilson with Voorheesville Mayor Richard Straut facilitated a terrific meeting to discuss the future of 18 South Main Street in Voorheesville. From 6-8pm we had a lively and productive workshop with over 50 attendees, talking about what potential uses can be implemented for the former Phillips Hardware store. The community brought great ideas for re-using the building as a railroad history museum, community space, welcome center, maker/vendor spaces and administrative offices for the village, to name a few.

One of a handful of 19th-century buildings in the village retaining much of their original, character-defining features, 18 South Main has an interesting history. It was originally the location of Frank Bloomingdale’s thriving Straw, Hay and Grain Store and Bloomingdale was Voorheesville’s president and then mayor when the village incorporated in 1899. For decades after Bloomingdale’s, the building was the home of W. W. Crannell Lumber, and since 1993 the building was Phillips Hardware Store, but the structure has been vacant since 2024.

Thanks to grants from Senator Patricia Fahy and Assembly Member Gabriella Romero, the village will begin an abatement and structural stabilization project, followed by programming/planning and adaptive reuse of the structure with TRW. Stay tuned for more information as we work with the village to revitalize this unique and historic building.

October 28th, we celebrated our 10th Anniversary at the magnificent Universal Preservation Hall (UPH) in Saratoga, the project that truly launched our firm. It was an incredible honor to be joined by Assemblywoman Carrie Woerner, who presented us with a special citation recognizing our commitment to historic preservation and the arts in New York State.

We couldn't imagine a better way to mark a decade than with the inspiring Arts Collective, our current client, whose vision for an Adirondack arts campus is breathtaking. Thank you, Assemblywoman Woerner, for your tireless work, and to the entire UPH and Caroga Arts teams for their partnership.

Here's to the next decade of building and preserving!

The TRW staff visits a work-in-progress

On Thursday, Sept. 25th, the TRW staff took a field trip to the Greene County Courthouse. This expansion of the courthouse in scenic Catskill is a large and exciting project for TRW, and the staff got to explore the building in its intermediate state of construction. Partner Dan Wilson was our guide, explaining the various aspects of this complex undertaking, and staff members who have worked on the project were able to see their contributions taking shape.

TRW's motto is "Building Communities by Design," and it's a special privilege to see our the results of our hard work in person. The Greene County Courthouse, by expanding upon an existing structure so it can meet the growing needs of the coming decades, is a great example of the firm's guiding philosophy.
