Conceptual Site Plan
Cornerstone Conceptual Masterplan: a mixed-use development community located minutes away from Busch Gardens
The Cornerstone Masterplan was a community concept developed with Health-E Communities of Virginia. This project consisted of a mixture of residential, retail, light industrial, and recreational spaces to serve as an affordable community with elements and characteristics of nearby historic Williamsburg’s charm and style. Numerous iterations of building component layouts, site arrangements, and constraints needed to help protect the Skiffe Creek masterplan and Reservoir made this project very challenging when laying out the conceptual site elements. I worked on everything for this project from developing the site layout and receiving local planning board approval for the conceptual masterplan to the development of various building prototypes, tenant layouts, and architectural details. .

Port Royal Apartments is a new housing complex consisting of 60 two- and credit three-bedroom units, This project is one of the largest multi-family tax developments in South Carolina to be LEED certified under the LEED for Homes Finance and Program.

When complete, this project will be LEED for Homes Silver and Energy Star certified, and will also receive dual certification under the US Department of Energy Builder’s Challenge and National Association of Home Builders Green Silver program. I assisted heavily with the LEED for Homes and US Department of Energy Builder’s Challenge documentation process throughout the entire magement of the project from concept to completion. One of the unique components of this project, especially for an affordable housing development, is the 60kw solar system used for energy generation. I assisted with coordinationof extensive reviews by the local architectural design review board to assure the project would be complimentary to the surrounding coastal resort community.

I assisted with numerous projects located within the American Tobacco Campus at Durham, NC for the client Struever Bros. Eccles & Rouse of Baltimore, MD. Various tenant upfits, renovations, and other services were delivered for the Old Bull and Noell Buildings, as well as, the American Tobacco Campus’ “crown jewel” the Coal Shed Restaurant. The Coal Shed Restaurant project was never completed due to numerous issues resulting from the 2008 nationwide economic recession.
