Transportation Design

Essential Questions:

1. Who would hire a single practitioner architect to design transportation facilities? Some relavant industries might include; taxi, limosine trucks, buses, airplanes, boats etc. plus other architects who need my specialized knowledge. They have hired me as a special consultant for their projects because it really is true that "good help is hard to find". Please look below at the listing of my projects.
2. What type of projects do I have experience with? I have designed many transportation related facilities, including airports terminals, bus terminals, parking facilities, hangers, maintenance facilities, signage and toll booths, over all site design, bridge facilities, tunnel facilities, subway facilities.
3. How would this experience be of value to other types of projects, such as commercial or residential projects? All american architectural projects include some input of traffic patterns, vehicle size, turning radius, parking space requirements. The more I know, the more benefit via carry over value my client's will be rewarded with.
4. Is this type of work generally called "Public Work"? Yes and no, but it can be very expensive. Airport facilities now commonly cost Billions of dollars to build and every one seems to agree that we need more of them.

All of the projects listed below are Public Sector work and many of them were done while working for a Public Authority (The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey), others were done while working with other architects. All were professionally rewarding, many are one of a kind works of art, such as a new 100 million dollar ceiling installation in the Holland Tunnel in New York City.
