Synopsis
A 400 acre site located in Oakdale between Montauk Highway and the Great South Bay that was a private estate in the early 20th century was purchased by a non-profit educational institution. This site hosted several education institutions that used the original estate house and added other buildings. Once the property was rezoned with a planned land preservation, the organization was permitted to maintain the existing core of the campus and develop housing on the site.
Project 1
Architectural Program
In order to compose the architectural program for this building, several basic elements will need to be identified. This includes a multipurpose gymnasium with flexible seating, two racquetball courts, a fencing area, a weight training room, support facilities, and mechanical elements (as well as administrative offices).
