DRPILLA TAKES OVER MAIN STREET
DRPILLA is proud to announce that on May 21, 2018, we opened the doors to our new office located at 143 Main Street in Nyack, NY! The project involved the gut renovation of a 9,000-square foot, three-story historic office building in the heart of downtown Nyack, NY. Originally built in the late 1800’s, the modifications preserved the original brick exterior and detailing while providing a modern workspace designed to maximize creativity, collaboration and innovation. The newly renovated headquarters will accommodate the firm’s growth and provide a stronger local presence. The space features enhanced staff facilities including new workstations in an open work plan, multiple meeting and conference rooms, an elevator and a café…
A STUDY ON TALL BUILDINGS AND DAMAGING WIND EFFECTS

A MODERN MAKEOVER IN THE WEST VILLAGE
The former manufacturing building located at 53 Downing Street, originally built in 1857, was fully gut renovated into a six-story, 8,260-square-foot luxury townhouse featuring a grand staircase, multiple terraces and a private garage. In collaboration with CWB Architects, DRPILLA was the structural engineer for this re-envisioned luxury townhouse in Greenwich Village. The structural work consisted of new floor framing and the removal of the existing rear wall to accommodate a new two-story steel bay window. A new story was added to the building, providing a penthouse with a rear landscaped roof terrace. The addition of the garage was integrated into the structural design to keep with the character of the street, as Downing Street is only two blocks long but contains eight garages…
