This building is found on the National

recently been completely damaged

meeting the historic committee's
stringent requirements.  The concept
that followed was to expose the
original load-bearing masonry walls
and to replicate what had once been
a gorgeous wood ceiling.  Design,
construction documents and
construction administration work
completed while Mark was employed
by TVS & Associates.
