White Plains Redevelopment

OVERVIEW
The White Plains Urban Renewal Project involved a massive rebuilding of the core area of this major city. Previously under-utilized land was cleared and buildings were demolished to make way for modern structures for housing, offices, transportation facilities, hotels and other associated uses. Langan worked with developers and the city to evaluate cost effective design and construction procedures for the numerous difficult subsoil conditions. To overcome subsoil challenges, Langan designed numerous foundation support systems and specified innovative construction procedures when cost economies could be achieved. Field monitoring data obtained from completed structures was utilized to refine the input for complex computer analyses.

Westchester Financial Center

OVERVIEW
The Westchester Financial Center consists of approximately 309,000 SF of existing Class A office space in downtown White Plains. Langan worked closely with the owner and architect to re-imagine this site in a much more pedestrian-friendly way. The main concept was to pull nature back into the concrete-heavy character of White Plains by incorporating ecological design. With this in mind, the streetscapes and 3-tier interior rooftop courtyards were designed using our concept of the Southern Taconic Ecological Precinct, or S.T.E.P. This unique design infuses the multi-level pedestrian space with an educational landscape that includes native species in varying layers of the local, southern New York landscape while creating an interactive outdoor office and café to enhance the office experience.

Halstead Station

OVERVIEW
Halstead Station is transit-oriented residential development directly adjacent to the train station in downtown New Rochelle, New York. The project includes the renovation of a 25-story residential building, a new outdoor courtyard and amenity space, the design of a new roadway and streetscape design, and the reconfiguration of vehicular patterns. Langan's site/civil and traffic teams designed the streetscape to meet the needs of the City of New Rochelle as a pedestrian-friendly entrance to the city as one exits the train. Traffic calming methods, such as speed tables and enhanced crosswalks, were employed to slow down vehicles for a safer experience. Our landscape architecture + planning group worked closely with Newman Architects and DSF to design the outdoor courtyard spaces in order to better suit the TOD community and upgrade the existing layout.
