This project involved the
renovation and expansion of a 1905 Carriage
House, situated on the New York Yacht Club's
property in Newport, RI. The completely
renovated building now has a multi-purpose
function room, with a supporting prep
kitchen, and new sailing staff offices in
the additional space. Trophy and model
display cases were incorporated in the
public areas on the first floor. New Suites
were added to the second floor of the
addition, and all suites in the existing
Carriage House were also renovated. The new
addition blends perfectly with the existing
building, making it hard to distinguish
between the 1905 and 2007, maintaining the
integrity of a hundred years of tradition.
Advanced Building Concepts renovated
the existing building, as well as building
the addition to the Carriage House, without
disturbing the guests that were staying
there at the time. The entire building was
brought up to current fire codes, including
fire alarm and fire protection systems. The
HVAC, plumbing and electrical trades were
completed on a design-build basis. |
