Last week, TRW's own Porter Hehr was the recipient of the Katherine Onufer Young Preservationist Award from the Historic Albany Foundation. In particular, his excellent work on the Van Ostrande-Radliff house (often referred to as Albany's oldest house) was celebrated. We're incredibly proud of Porter's recognition, and fortunate to benefit from his expertise, dedication, and passion as a professional in the world of Architecture and Historic Preservation.

Architecture and the arts share a common purpose: to create places that inspire, connect, and enrich our communities.

At the end of last month, Mark Thaler and Sophia Rose Lane attended The Hyde Collection Annual Summer Luncheon, celebrating this year's honoree, Penny Jolly, and the lasting impact of arts and culture across the region.
Thank you to The Hyde Collection and the Luncheon Honorary Committee for hosting such a beautiful afternoon at The Sagamore Resort. We're proud to support The Hyde as community sponsors and invest in organizations that preserve our cultural heritage while shaping vibrant communities for generations to come.

Designing for historic preservation means ensuring that our most treasured neighborhood landmarks are preserved not just structurally, but functionally for everyone.

On June 7th, we were thrilled to join the congregation of the historic First Presbyterian Church of Albany for the official groundbreaking ceremony of their new capital project.

The new addition will introduce critical accessibility upgrades, including a new elevator to serve the ground floor meeting rooms; new accessible restrooms will be added to the Fellowship Hall and in the education building; and new HVAC systems will provide air conditioning for many critical gathering spaces, ensuring year-round comfort.

A huge congratulations to the First Presbyterian congregation on this momentous step forward in their "A Welcoming Place for All" campaign. Special thanks to Senator Patricia Fahy, Assemblymember Romero, and the community leaders whose advocacy helps keep Albany's historic civic anchors vibrant and accessible for the next generation.

We can’t wait to watch construction progress. hashtag

Rain was in the forecast, but pure energy was on the ground.

On June 7th, the Town of Charlton, NY celebrated its annual Founder’s Weekend with the official ribbon-cutting and re-dedication of their historic Community Center.

As architects, we enjoy seeing our work come to life. But even more importantly, we enjoy seeing our community landmarks revitalized for future generations. The afternoon was packed with local flavor, including a parade honoring the hamlet of Harmony Corners, a tribute to the 100th anniversary of the local fire department, and giant history-inspired puppets from Main Street Studio.

Thank you to Congressman Paul Tonko, who supported early funding for the project, as well as the New York State Office of Parks, Recreation, and Historic Preservation.

Congratulations to the Town of Charlton on a spectacular kickoff.

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.
