We're thrilled to share Architectural Record's June 2024 cover story featuring the newly renovated Folger Shakespeare Library in Washington, DC. Reopening to the public on June 21, the Folger houses the world's largest collection of Shakespeare's printed works. Over the past ten years, KieranTimberlake has partnered with Folger to provide strategic planning services, culminating in an expanded site and reimagined visitor experience. To complement the 1932 landmarked building by Paul Cret, KieranTimberlake went below, literally digging beneath the structure to create a more equitable and welcoming experience for all. “This is a building of great rooms,” said Partner Stephen Kieran. “We modernized the three historic rooms, but in a silent way. And we created the gardens as outdoor rooms.” The 6,000 square foot addition includes a lobby, exhibition halls, learning lab, gift shop, and offices, while vastly improving accessibility and circulation. “This project offers an alternative—without any changes to Cret's original elevations—and a way forward for institutions seeking to grow but contending with limitations,” they write.

I look forward to presenting our New York University Paulson Center at the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat (CTBUH) Conference in London in September. Completed in 2023, the new 735,000 sf building houses academics, performing arts, athletics, campus life, and student and faculty residential, setting a new paradigm for urban mixed-use development. Linda Chiarelli, NYU SVP for Capital Projects and Facilities, and I will discuss the university's vision for the project, design, sustainability, and the completed building's profound impact on community and learning.

The John A. Paulson Center at New York University was recently featured by Architizer in a list of "Beautiful Buildings Designed To Showcase What’s Inside." The Paulson Center's design takes advantage of its 360-degree relationship with the neighborhood by placing hallway circulation along its transparent perimeter and classroom and instructional spaces towards the center of the building. "This unconventional but incredibly successful design choice gifts faculty and students with one-of-a-kind city views as they navigate the building, truly making the most of its remarkable location," they write. The Paulson Center was designed in collaboration with Davis Brody Bond, a Page Company.

Today we are celebrating the 10th anniversary of Dilworth Park's reopening! With nearly four acres of space at the intersection of Philadelphia’s major arts, cultural, and business districts, our 2014 transformation made Dilworth Park a welcoming and vital public space—destination, crossroads, and place of tranquility in the heart of the city. The renovation of Dilworth Park re-captures city founder William Penn’s original vision for a place of civic engagement at the center of the city and welcomes nearly 10 million visitors annually. To celebrate this milestone, Center City District is hosting a series of public programming, including an extended Live @ Lunch concert with Patrice Hawthorne, an interactive community chalk mural, and more. Visit their website for details. 📷 We Film Philly and Center City District, James Ewing/OTTO
