AIA CAE 2009 FALL CONFERENCE LETTER FROM THE CHAIR Welcome to the 2009 fall conference of the AIA Committee on Architecture for Education! Our focus this year has been on the urban learning environment. In June, we met in Pittsburgh and explored a variety of environments, topics and research into creating effective centers for learning. Over the next three days we will explore the issues, strategies and potential solutions that urban school districts around the country encounter as they create environments to foster academic success. Our context this weekend is New York City, but what we learn here can be implemented in all learning environments. We look forward to a rich discussion as we explore case studies, projects and research relevant to our topic. Our discussion will take several forms, including interactive small group activities with real problems to solve. A sincere thank you to all of our sponsors for making this event possible. Without their support, the opportunities to engage in this type of discussion would not be possible. We also want to thank the AIA staff for the tremendous effort they have put into planning, coordinating and resolving all the logistical challenges of a program like this. Finally, I want to extend a personal thank you to the planning committee for the conference. The immeasurable hours they have volunteered to plan the program, bring in the speakers, find sponsors and arrange the project tours make this experience a great success. We look forward to a rich discussion and an energetic three days together. When you leave this conference, we want to encourage all of you to become more involved in the work of the Committee on Architectural Education by becoming active in one of our five subcommittees. Your involvement is critical to the success of those groups, and to the continued success of the CAE. Best regards, Tim Dufault 2009 Chair, AIA Committee on Architecture for Education.

This year’s conference is themed, “Designing Learning Environments to Rebuild Urban America”. Rebuilding our learning environments places architects in a pivotal position as leaders to modernize our schools, in turn developing the future intellectual capital: our young learners. New York City schools will serve as our laboratory to examine history, trends, and innovations, both in educational theory and practice, as well as construction. This conference brings together researchers, educators, students, and design professionals to explore the school building as a vehicle for implementing change. Presentations, panel discussions, and workshops are planned to engage you as a participant and encourage you to expand your current understanding of what learning is. Furthermore, site visits to area schools serve as examples of how to design learning environments around current pedagogy and anticipate the future learning environments. From these activities, we are hopeful that new strategies will emerge to create schools that are both viable and inspiring. Lastly, we intend that this conference become the springboard to encourage a continuing dialogue on how pedagogical places may be designed to engage students in real, rigorous, and relevant learning experiences.

  • High Performance Building Guidelines
    Executive Acknowledgements Honorable Rudolph W. Giuliani Mayor City of New York Luis M. Tormenta, P.E. Commissioner New York City Department of Design and Construction Michael Burton, P.E. Deputy Commissioner New York City Department of Design and Construction Hillary Brown, AIA Assistant Commissioner New York City Department of Design and Construction Fredric Bell, AIA Assistant Commissioner New York City Department of Design and Construction Andrea Woodner Founding Director Design Trust for Public Space Commissioner’s Foreword To the Reader: As we enter the new century, the City of New York is in a unique position to improve the overall quality and performance of public buildings that are constructed and renovated by the Department of Design and Construction (DDC). We can do that by increasing our reliance on energy and environmentally efficient construction technologies and practices, by taking advantage of the strides that have been made over the past few years in the field of ‘green buildings.‘ Key to the success of that effort is our ability to make responsible investments to improve the environment without constraining economic activity. We are now in a position to do that, and, under the leadership of Mayor Rudolph W. Giuliani, are moving ahead to make New York City an environmental prototype for the 21st Century. These Guidelines outline strategies and techniques that can move us toward that goal. They set out a range of ’best practices‘ for planning, designing, constructing and operating healthier, more energy – and resource – efficient facilities. Such high performance buildings can earn long term life cycle savings for New York City, and may also help stimulate the markets for environmentally efficient technologies.

  • LONG ISLAND HEADQUARTERS of the NEW YORK TELEPHONE COMPANY 97-105 Willoughby Street (Aka 349-371 Bridge Street, and 7 Metrotech Center), Brooklyn
    Landmarks Preservation Commission September 21, 2004, Designation List 356 LP- 2144 (Former) LONG ISLAND HEADQUARTERS of the NEW YORK TELEPHONE COMPANY 97-105 Willoughby Street (aka 349-371 Bridge Street, and 7 Metrotech Center), Brooklyn. Built 1929-30; Ralph Walker of Voorhees, Gmelin & Walker, architect. Landmark Site: Borough of Brooklyn Tax Map Block 2058, Lot 1. On June 15, 2004, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation as a Landmark of the (Former) Long Island Headquarters of the New York Telephone Company building and its related Landmark Site (Item No. 1).The hearing had been duly advertised in accordance with the provisions of law. There were two speakers in favor of designation, including a representative of the owner of the building, Verizon New York Inc., and a representative of the Historic Districts Council. The Commission has also received a letter of support from Councilman David Yassky. There were no speakers opposed to designation. Summary The Long Island Headquarters of the New York Telephone Company, built in 1929-30, is a masterful example of the series of tall structures issuing from architect Ralph Walker=s long and productive association with the communications industry. Walker was a prominent New York architect whose expressive tall buildings, prolific writings and professional leadership made him one of the foremost representatives of his field during his long life. In this dramatically-massed, orange brick skyscraper, Walker illustrates his exceptional ability to apply the Art Deco style to a large office tower. Its abstract, metal ornament on the ground story display windows and the main entrance on Bridge Street, suggests constant movement, and is typical of the art of late 1920s.
