Parrett was proud to provide windows and doors for this Regency-style home, working closely with the architect.

Peter Block Architects aims to create unique homes with a mantra of "where artistry pervades industry, and humanity trumps formality." Parrett perfectly exemplifies these design and construction considerations with our meticulous craftsmanship.

Parrett's window and door units for this home were factory-painted and constructed of sapele mahogany. The front entry door system featured decorative glass with metal caming bars. A unique "profiled" door panel design was employed, as well as a decorative "centered accent" and a bronze interlocking sill.

The other window and door units featured an insulated, laminated glass makeup, offering the benefits of fade protection, sound deadening, and enhanced breakage/security performance. Grilles were simulated divided lite with internal spacer bars.

Weight and chain double-hung windows were utilized to allow nearly effortless operation of the heavier sashes due to the laminated glass makeup. Spiral balance hung windows were also used in areas where large daylight openings were a primary factor. The largest stationary window was over 90” x 120”.

Pushout casements were equipped with multipoint locking handlesets, as well as historic, exposed pushbars. All window and door units featured unlacquered brass hardware, which will patina with age and use, resulting in a one-of-a-kind appearance. Parrett was proud to contribute to the unique design characteristics of this home.

Stained Glass - Restoration Ellipse Window

A client contacted Parrett with an aged decorative glass panel and the proposal to install this glass into a new window unit for their future residence. The glass panel was travel-weary with its origins from another state and previous installed locations, and upon an initial inspection was unstable for an appropriate new installation.

A local artisan, Nathan Paul Meyer, of Art Factory America was contacted and confirmed the deteriorated condition of this over 100-year-old panel of glass. The glass was left in his care and the meticulous complete disassembly of the approximately 450 pieces was began and then simultaneously reassembled with utilization of the majority of the original lights of glass. Patience and authentic lead caming were used to recreate the original personality of the piece per the client’s aspirations.

Parrett templated the restored glass panel and manufactured a window unit to give the now rejuvenated piece its new resting place, and then final installation in the residence for a further 100 years of appreciation.

Building relationships with the homeowner, a local artisan, a contractor, and Parrett is a service that we make available to the fenestration industry.

This church and parsonage located within the Van Vorst Park Historic District of Jersey City was built in 1874. Although it was constructed on behalf of the Scotch Presbyterian Congregation, it was often referred to as the “McKenzie Church” as George R. McKenzie provided a sizable portion of the initial funding. McKenzie was able to fund the church due to his position as President of the Singer Sewing Machine Company, which he grew to later be referred in 1882 as “one of the largest and wealthiest companies in the world.”

The architect behind the design of this “gothic style” yet understated church is unknown but is often assumed to have been designed by Edward Simon as he had a history of working with George R. McKenzie, and had built a similar church in the Greenville section of Jersey City.

Dixon Advisory USA purchased the church and parsonage building after the church filed for bankruptcy in 2013, citing an earlier 2007 fire as a primary cause. Dixon teamed with the respected renovation team of Jersey City-based Coastal Points Construction LLC to ensure that the historically accurate renovation would allow the building to retain its authenticity yet still provide the modern conveniences expected in a high-end, multi-family residence. Residences will be available for purchase as of July 2020.

Parrett manufactured a large variety of units for this church and parsonage consisting of swing doors, crankout casements, hung windows, and two extremely large, custom-crafted, gothic-top stationary windows. These two stationary window systems were 96” X 276” and consisted of many unique, factory-mulled complicated shapes, casings, and mull cavities. Additionally, Parrett provided the structural engineering calculations and structural supports required to support these large windows once installed at the jobsite.

These all-wood, mahogany window and door units were painted in the Parrett factory and featured either insulated decorative glass or Low E glass depending on the installed location.
