Architect Recommendation
We’re in the process of buying a brownstone and are looking for an architect to work with. Its a gut renovation project. Any good recommendations and good experiences to share?

KG,
Please contact me as I would be interested to hear about your experience – thelofter@gmail.com
Hi.
I am an architect and interior designer with over 15 years experience. I have just recently broken away from long time business partner in Manhattan and relocated my practice to Brooklyn – where I have been a resident for six years. I have significant historic preservation, LPC, brownstone/ townhouse renovation, residential design, project direction and construction management experience.
My rates are extremely competitive and you will get the personal attention of the company founder. I made this move to Brooklyn because I wanted to get back to working with my clients instead of managing people as I was at my last company. I would love to help you with your facade restoration project. I am confident that I can the end result will exceed your expectations and meets your budget.
I have a comprehensive portfolio for review. I hope to hear from you.
Regards,
Alan Barr, founder

Hi KG,
Coming to this a little late but would like to throw my firm’s hat into the ring.

We do lots of renovations throughout the City, currently working a whole brownstone gut (landmarked house, 150 years old, change of c of o, the whole 9 yards) in Brooklyn Heights we would be happy to show you among other projects.
Live in Clinton hill, so would be happy to walk the “site” with you and give you our impressions, observations, and comments any day (for free of course).
Have a great weekend.
thanks

I assume you are downtown Indy. If you are renovating (and not changing the structure of the building) you probably do not need an architect. If you are, then you may need one; but you will need to see if permits/other legalities are required.

I’ve worked with Carol Henderson, an architect based in Prospect Heights, on two major jobs. The first was a gut of an office space. The second was a gut of half of my brownstone in Fort Greene (where I live). She’s great, and does lots of work in Brooklyn brownstones. You’re welcome to check out my place if you like – I did it about 2 years ago. The style of my place is clean and modern (I didn’t have any original details to start, so nothing important was sacrificed), but she also does more original restorations. Feel free to be in touch with me if you like at mkleinnyc@gmail.com or Carol at (718) 399-2252. Best, Matt
I am working on a project with Gitta Robinson. She is located in Dumbo. Works with her husband. Very easy to work with and fees are reasonable.
