Yalick Farms

Iain Kerrigan — Sun, 03 Nov 2024 09:14:31 +0000

This planned community began in spring 2007 and includes 280-unit town-homes, a community center, retail spaces, condominiums, patio homes, walking trails, a swimming pool, tennis courts, and a community playground.
The town-homes range in size from 2,100 SF for a 3-bedroom unit to 2,400 SF for a 4-bedroom unit. The town-homes’ exteriors are constructed of cost effective, maintenance-free materials including brick veneer, fiber cement siding, cellular vinyl trim, and metal/asphalt shingle roofing.

The upper level of the community center includes a 100-person capacity multi-purpose space, office, kitchen, restrooms, and a fitness center. The lower level functions primarily as a game room and locker facilities for the community swimming pool. The maintenance-free exterior materials are brick veneer, cement board siding, cellular vinyl trim, exposed cedar rafter tails, and bracketing.

The Alley Center is a 2012 adaptive re-use of a former downtown hotel into a multi-use occupancy facility. King’s College uses the 8-story building’s upper floors for student apartments and the 3 lower levels for academic programs. The 1st floor includes a 36,000 sf Physician Associate Department. In addition to a 75-seat lecture hall, 4 large simulation labs, student study lounges and faculty offices, the departmental program provides a comprehensive gross anatomy laboratory. The building’s 2nd floor and 3rd floors house 10 classrooms each, while floors 4 through 8 provide for a total of 96 student beds in 50 apartments.

The Hamilton

KLP worked on The Hamilton multi-use student housing and retail complex as Associate Architect and architectural consultant to the Architect of Record, MY Architecture. Our role was as the constructor and inter-disciplinary coordinator for architectural and engineering production within the BIM Revit model, a virtual 3-D construct of the project construction drawings. The documentation included the detailing of panelized wall construction. In this capacity we led the full drawing production effort to completion of construction documents. KLP acted in the same role with the same responsibilities for both Phase I and Phase II of the project, each a 3-year effort and each at a capacity of approximately 300-units.

The two housing projects were at 10 stories and 16 stories respectively, with the restrictive code construction type of 1A. Aside from the building’s inherent complexities as true high-rise construction, the circumstances of the site presented challenges requiring unusually high-level engineering solutions. For example, the site is in Center City Philadelphia, approximately 1/4 mile north of City Hall, and sits on top of the historical Baldwin Locomotive Works, 45 feet below grade.

King’s College O’Hara Hall

This multi-use complex was developed for King’s College by the Radnor Property Group, a developer of student housing projects at Franklin & Marshall College and Bucknell University. The project provides 165 student beds in 47 apartments on the upper floors. The ground floor houses the college’s Education Department, it’s model Early Learning Center, and a college-operated restaurant which is open to the public.

Located at the historic edge of the campus, the project is the first to cross the boundary of North main Street into the city’s former warehouse district adjoining this urban campus. The architecture addresses the coloration of both campus and town, where the college’s signature buff meets the downtown’s red brick. Along North Main Street the building holds the street edge, with window bays providing scale at the student living rooms and at the common lounges.

Misericordia University MacDowell Hall

MacDowell Hall augments the student housing offering on campus with 26 apartments for 118 students, as well as three academic classrooms on the ground floor. The building’s location anticipates the formation of a new quadrangle on campus and reinforces pedestrian nodes and axial views. Modular floor systems and panelized wall systems were utilized to expedite the construction schedule. Shading devices and deep mullion extensions provide passive solar shading to south side glass at the student lounges and apartment living rooms. The student lounges occupy a glass pavilion at the main entrance, which when illuminated, acts as a lantern of light providing a focal point on the University’s upper campus.
