ARTHUR  ERICKSON  ARCHITECTS 


The  Firm 

AEA  is  an  internationally  recognized  firm  of  architects, 
designers  and  planners,  with  offices  in  Canada,  the 
United  States  and  abroad.  The  firm  was  established  in 
Vancouver  in  1972  from  the  former  firm  of  Erickson- 
Massey,  in  practice  since  1963.  A  Montreal  office  of  the 
firm  was  opened  in  1965  to  service  projects  at  Expo  '67 
and  moved  to  Toronto  in  1970.  In  1978,  a  Middle  East 
office  was  opened  in  Kuwait  for  the  planning  of  the  new 
town  centre  of  Fintas,  and  in  Riyadh,  Saudi  Arabia  for 
the  management  of  the  new  Foreign  Ministry  Head- 
quarters and  other  major  projects  in  the  Kingdom.  In 
1980,  the  firm  won  a  developer  competition  for  the 
11-acre  "Bunker  Hill"  project  in  downtown  Los  Angeles 
and  opened  its  American  offices  in  1981.  Projects  com- 
pleted by  AEA  frequently  establish  precedents  in  de- 
sign. The  firm  has  received  many  professional,  civic 
and  international  awards  and  honours  for  its  work. 

AEA  provides  professional  services  in  architecture  and 
interior  design,  urban  design,  planning,  programming, 
and  project  management  to  all  levels  of  government, 
institutions,  corporations,  developers  and  private 
clients.  Architectural  commissions  executed  by  the 
firm  include  government  offices,  judicial  courts  and 
offices,  universities,  museums,  concert  halls  and 
theatres,  houses  of  worship,  exhibition  pavilions,  com- 
mercial buildings,  hotels  and  tourist  facilities,  transit 
stations,  research  laboratories  and  warehouses,  hous- 
ing complexes,  and  private  residences. 

AEA  has  also  been  involved  in  large-scale  planning, 
urban  design,  and  master  planning  projects  for  rec- 
reational, transportation,  tourism  and  development 
complexes,  as  well  as  commissions  for  major  city  de- 
velopments, waterfronts,  coastal  development  and 
town  centres.  Commissions  include  the  master  plan- 
ning and  design  of  several  universities  and  the  prog- 
ramming, master  planning  and  design  of  large  hos- 
pitals. 

AEA  continually  studies  architectural  and  design  tradi- 
tions from  many  lands  and  cultures  and  strives  to  in- 
corporate the  best  spirit  of  those  traditions  in  its  inter- 
national work.  It  is  this  global  consciousness,  reflected 
in  AEA's  projects,  which  has  earned  the  firm  a  reputa- 
tion for  excellence. 


ARTHUR  ERICKSON  ARCHITECTS 


The  FYactice 

AEA  undertakes  projects  of  any  scale  or  type  which,  by 
their  nature,  lend  themselves  to  creative  and  often  pre- 
cedent-setting solutions.  Design  and  planning  com- 
missions start  with  a  careful  study  of  the  client  and  user 
needs,  including  the  project  schedule  and  budget,  all  of 
which  is  prerequisite  information  in  effective 
architectural  and  planning  work.  The  firm  also  seeks  to 
determine  the  role  the  project  plays  in  relation  to  its 
environmental,  historical,  social  and  economic  con- 
text. 

Following  personal  contact  with  clients  to  explore  their 
needs  and  interests,  AEA  staff  prepares  a  programme. 
This  document  organizes  and  describes  the  client's  re- 
quirements in  written,  tabulated  and  diagrammatic 
form.  Each  project  design  usually  starts  with  a  small 
team  of  architects  who  work  directly  with  Arthur  Erick- 
son  to  set  the  ground  rules  and  subsequently  the  basic 
conceptual  direction.  The  design  is  developed  gradual- 
ly from  conceptual  sketches  through  increasing  levels 
of  detail.  Models  often  are  used  from  the  outset. 

The  project  team  and  Arthur  Erickson  meet  on  a  regular 
basis  throughout  the  design  process.  Between  these 
work  sessions,  the  team  explores  various  alternatives 
and  ideas  to  ensure  that  every  possibility  has  been 
examined,  and  its  design  and  cost  implications  under- 
stood. The  intent  is  to  start  a  design  without  preconcep- 
tions, and  to  keep  all  design  possibilities  open  for  as 
long  as  possible  before  making  the  concept  final. 

Particular  care  is  taken  to  ensure  that  design  integrity  is 
maintained  through  the  working  drawing  and  con- 
struction phases.  To  achieve  the  required  continuity, 
the  project  architect  and  the  core  design  team,  au- 
gmented as  required  by  more  technically  oriented  staff. 


normally  will  carry  a  job  through  all  phases  of  work  to 
completion.  During  these  latter  phases,  Arthur  Erick- 
son meets  with  the  team  on  a  continual  basis  to  ensure 
that  there  is  an  efficient  transition  throughout  the  de- 
sign process. 

To  encourage  the  most  appropriate  and  creative  use  of 
the  talents  of  the  firm,  and  to  allow  the  acceptance  of 
commissions  of  all  sizes,  AEA  has  adopted  a  flexible 
management  approach.  While  certain  senior  members 
have  clearly  'defined  roles,  the  team  structure  and  the 
assignment  of  responsibilities  are  tailored  to  suit  the 
needs  of  each  specific  project.  Each  office  is  organized 
as  an  independent  administration  with  Arthur  Erickson 
personally  involved  in  all  stages  of  the  design  of  all 
projects.  Each  office  is  managed  by  associate  senior 
architects,  who  report  directly  to  Mr.  Erickson  on  all 
management  matters. 

At  the  start  of  an  assignment,  one  or  two  senior  staff 
members  and  Arthur  Erickson  work  with  the  client  to 
define  the  scope  and  nature  of  the  project  and  deter- 
mine the  appropriate  staffing  and  scheduling.  A  senior 
architect  is  responsible,  with  Arthur  Erickson's  direc- 
tion, for  supervising  a  project  from  inception  to  com- 
pletion. His  tasks  include  client  and  user  liaison,  orga- 
nization of  the  architectural  team's  day-to-day  activi- 
ties, consultant  coordination,  and  dealing  with  the  au- 
thorities who  have  jurisdiction  over  certain  aspects  of 
the  project.  If  the  scale  of  the  project  warrants,  he  also 
will  assist  in  any  coordination  required  with  project  or 
construction  management  firms. 

Team  members  are  assigned  as  needed  for  the  nature 
and  stage  of  the  project.  AEA  ensures  that  a  variety  of 
technical  experts  is  available  on  staff  to  provide  the 
necessary  pool  of  resources  for  the  team  approach. 
The  firm  has  a  staff  of  more  than  100  professionals  with 
expertise  in  the  fields  of  Urban  and  Regional  Planning, 
Programming  and  Feasibility  Studies,  Architectural  De- 
sign, Contract  Documentation,  Interior  Design,  Land- 
scape Design,  Quantity  Surveying,  Construction  Su- 
pervision, and  Project  Management. 

AEA  calls  on  the  expertise  of  the  finest  outside  consult- 
ing services  for  the  prime  engineering  disciplines, 
structural,  mechanical  and  electrical,  and  for  cost  esti- 
mating. If  the  project  demands,  more  specialized  con- 
sultants may  be  retained  in  acoustics,  transportation, 
lighting,  special  programming,  fire  safety,  elevator  and 
conveyor  systems. 

After  building  completion,  the  firm  encourages 
ongoing  user  feedback.  Monitoring  and  assessing  the 
building  in  use  is  a  continuing  part  of  the  overall  pro- 
cess. The  knowledge  gamed  from  this  dialogue  is  used 
to  great  advantage  in  subsequent  projects. 

The  diversity  of  the  AEA  staff,  coupled  with  the  continu- 
ity and  team  spirit  which  results  from  the  project  team 
approach,  works  to  the  advantage  and  best  interests  of 
the  client.  Staff  members  from  many  nations  and 
ethnic  backgrounds  are  attracted  to  AEA  by  the  firm's 
reputation  for  creative  work  and  high  quality  stan- 
dards. AEA  is  proud  of  the  diversity  of  its  staff,  which 
serves  to  broaden  the  collective  experience  of  the  firm 
and  encourages  a  lively  exchange  of  ideas  from  diffe- 
rent traditions.

VANCOUVER'S 

GRAND  NEW  GOVERNMENT 

y-^  r"  V  I  T  r  W%  ''^  ^  remarkable  achievement  in  a  number  of  ways.  Arthur  Enckson  Architects  has 
i  Y'^\  I  r|V  created  a  bold  new  contemporary  courts  building  at  an  appropriately  monumental 
^^  1-  I    ^    ■    »-  scale-and  linked  it  well  with  the  street,  lower-scale  offices,  and  a  landmark 

courthouse  soon  to  be  recycled  into  a  city  cultural  center.  On  a  site  long  proposed 
as  a  civic  square,  the  architects  have  woven  through  the  complex  a  splendid  park 
and  public  promenade.  The  design  establishes  for  Vancouver  a  new  emphasis  on 
lower  density  and  pedestrian  access  and  vitality.  And  as  the  photo  on  the  next 
spread  suggests,  the  over-all  design  is  elegant  and  expansive,  functional  but  with 
elements  of  fantasy,  offering  splendid  spaces  inside  and  out  Perhaps  above  all  it  is 
wonderfully  spirited.  .  .  .  —Janet  Nairn

The  grand  scale  and  the 
complexity  of  Robson 
Square  and  The  Law 
Courts  — a  horizontal  three- 
block-long  complex  in  the  heart 
of  Vancouver  — singles  it  out  as 
one  of  the  most  important  and 
ambitious  urban  re-designs  in 
years  In  concept  and  in  reality 
the  project  is  seen  as  a  three- 
dimensional  park  spine  bordered 
by  two  prime  north-south  streets 
(Hornby  and  Howe  Streets)  and 
just  south  of  the  prime  east-west 
artery  (Georgia  Street),  a  site  long 
proposed  as  a  civic  square 
Planned  in  relation  to  a  broader 
downtown  context  the  project  is, 
in  fact,  the  first  major  step 
toward  the  city  planning  depart- 


ment's objective  of  lower  density 
and  greater  emphasis  on  pedes- 
trian amenities 

Though  conceived  as  an 
integrated  whole,  each  of  the 
three  blocks  of  the  project  is  dis- 
tinctive and  different  The  grada- 
tion of  the  site  reinforces  a  pat- 
tern of  "movement"  that  flows 
from  the  great  inclined  glass  roof 
and  exposed  structural  framing 
of  the  Law  Courts  building, 
across  the  street  via  the  linear 
pool  of  water  and  cascading 
waterfalls,  to  three  tiers  of  zig- 
zagging steps  which  lead  to  a 
sunken  plaza  This  plaza  contin- 
ues under  Robson  Street  (see  site 
plan)  before  rising  again  in  front 
of    the    old    courthouse,    at    the 


northern  end  of  the  three  blocks 
(These  three  blocks  are  locally 
referred  to  by  the  city  planners' 
designations  as  Block  51  for  the 
old  courthouse  square.  Block  61 
for  Robson  Square  and  the  pro- 
vincial government  offices,  and 
Block  71  for  the  Law  Courts 
building  ) 

While  the  three  blocks  are 
owned  by  the  British  Columbia 
provincial  government,  the  old 
courthouse  will  be  leased  to  the 
city  for  complete  interior  renova- 
tion and  some  exterior  additions 
to  transform  it  into  a  cultural  cen- 
ter The  rotunda  and  other  main 
floor  spaces  will  be  used  for  an 
information  center,  and  exhibi- 
tion   and    meeting/conference 


rooms  The  L-shaped  portion  of 
the  building  will  include  the  Van- 
couver Art  Gallery,  a  small  the- 
ater, and  other  performing 
spaces,  filling  out  approximately 
120,000  square  feet.  The  formal 
plaza  with  fountain  located  on 
the  Georgia  Street  elevation 
(again,  see  site  plan)  will  continue 
to  be  used  for  important  civic 
occasions  Also  planned  is  an 
underground  rapid  transit  station

The  toe jl  point  ol  the  complex 

is   the  Law  Courts  building. 

with  Its  strong  exposed  concrete 

structural  framing  and  soaring 

glass  root  sloping  to  the  western 

elevation    The  strength  of 

these  forms  and  the  terracing 

so  prominent  in  the  design  is 

seen  at  the  Nelson  Street 

entrance  (right),  and  echoed 

in  the  interiors  (above)    This 

layering  is  also  reflected  on 

the  eastern  elevation  (top  left 

and  section  )  Careful  detailing 

includes  the  extension  of  the 

open  truss  as  a  root  border 

with  sliver-like  structural  framing 

(top  above) 


30,000  square  feet  of  public  cir- 
culation and  retail  space  fronting 
the  sunken  plaza  Of  this  380,000 
gross  square  feet  total,  only 
100,000  square  feet  is  above 
grade 

In  contrast,  the  new  Law 
Courts  building  is  the^  most  strik- 
ing visual  element  of  the  complex 
(with  669,000  gross  square  feet) 
Set  upon  a  podium  two  stories 
above  street  level,  at  the  highest 
point  of  the  site,  the  building's 
glass  roof  dominates  the  compo- 
sition. To  maintain  the  relation- 
ship of  scale  between  the  new 
building  and  the  older  court- 
house at  the  other  end  of  the 
complex,  the  roof  level  of  the 
new  building  was  kept  at  approx- 


imately  the   same   height   of   the 
dome  of  the  landmark  building 

The  strong  exposed  post- 
and-beam  structural  elements  at 
both  ends  of  the  new  courthouse 
only  hint  at  what's  to  come  in  the 
interiors.  Once  inside,  the  sharply 
defined  tiers  of  columns  prome- 
nade down  the  full  length  of  a 
wide  public  concourse,  under  the 
glass  roof  which  is  supported  by 
an  intricate  space  truss.  The  full 
visual  impact,  however,  is  not 
perceived  until  one  recognizes 
the  public  corridor  terraces  step- 
ping upward.  All  levels  are  filled 
with  daylight  — even  on  the  noto- 
rious number  of  gray  days  in 
Vancouver  On  bright,  clear 
days,  playful  shadows  are  cast  by 


the  space  truss. 

While  these  public  spaces 
were  critical  to  the  architects' 
design  concept,  they  were  a  gen- 
erous gesture  on  the  part  of  the 
client,  for  the  purpose  of  the 
building  is,  of  course,  to  house 
courtrooms  and  support  facilities 
for  judges  and  lawyers  But  the 
gesture  was  worthwhile  the  con- 
course is  a  breathtaking  experi- 
ence for  the  first-time  visitor,  and 
a  continuing  delight  for  the  daily 
user  The  public  areas  appear  vir- 
tually free  of  security  restrictions 
because  they  are  separated  from 
the  working  areas.  Since  security 
was  a  key  factor  for  the  judges, 
there  is  a  separate  high  security 
circulation  pattern  for  them  and 


others  involved  in  court   proce- 
dures 

Twenty-six  civil  and  criminal 
courtrooms  are  positioned  in  a 
central  swath  of  the  new  build- 
ing—with access  for  the  public 
on  one  side  and  |udges  on  the 
other  The  |udges'  chambers  are 
located  along  the  perimeter  of 
the  eastern  elevation  (see  floor 
plans)  and  all  have  views.  )ury 
rooms  and  auxiliary  facilities  are 
worked  into  the  plan  according 
to  the  size  of  the  level.  Each  is 
the  equivalent  of  one-and-a-half 
conventional  floor  height.  By 
means  of  an  "interlocking"  stack- 
ing system,  a  whole  floor  of 
courtrooms  and  related  spaces 
can  be  accommodated  (see  sec-

The  interiors  arrangement  of 
the  Law  Courts  building  reflects 
the  architects '  desire  to  express 
the  importance  of  public  space. 
The  main  public  concourse 
(right)  continues  the  spirit  of 
the  exterior  with  its  dramatic 
post-and-beam  structure 
marching  through,  underneath 
the  tinted  glass  roof,  supported 
by  a  space  truss.  A  grand 
central  staircase  (left)  leads  to 
the  upper  terraces;  each  level 
provides  striking  views  of  other 
terraces  while  creating  waiting 
areas  to  the  courtrooms.  Class- 
enclosed  corners  (above)  offer 
expansive  views  to  the  cityscap 
especially  fascinating  at  the 
northern  edges  which  overlook 
the  rest  of  the  complex  across 
the  flowing  pool  of  water  that 
covers  the  government  offices. 
While  there  is  no  "typical" 
floor  because  of  square  footagi 
differences  on  set-back  levels, 
the  general  plan  has  public 
'  'galleries ' '  relating  to  the 
centrally  positioned  courtrooms 
beyond  which  are  judges ' 
chambers 


tions,  pages  70  and  74)  A  large 
restaurant  is  also  provided  just 
above  the  connection  to  the  pro- 
vincial government  office  build- 
ing in  the  central  block,  overlook- 
ing the  pool  of  water 

Like  any  project  of  this  com- 
plexity, and  public  visibility  — 
indeed,  of  public  importance  in 
an  important  city  — the  new  cen- 
ter has  been  subjected  to  criti- 
cism, some  of  which  Arthur  Erick- 
son  agrees  with  For  one  thing, 
the  open  plan  offices  (designed 
by  another  firm  retained  by  the 
government)  in  the  provincial 
government  building  (photo, 
page  74)  are  less  than  successful 
since  the  varying  partition  heights 
do  not  relate  well  to  Erickson's 


scheme  of  letting  side  lighting 
into  the  space  and  creating  views 
out.  Another  disappointment  is 
the  selection  of  fast-food  conces- 
sions serving  the  public  next  to 
the  Robson  Square's  major  plaza 
Erickson  had  envisioned  (and  lost 
the  argument  for)  a  series  of  eth- 
nic restaurants,  each  with  a  dif- 
ferent environment  that  would 
appeal  to  Vancouver's  diverse 
populations  And  even  though 
the  complex  is  clearly  land- 
scaped—and indeed  may  be- 
come lushly  landscaped  as  the 
plantings  mature  — Erickson 
hoped  for  more  mature  plane 
trees  along  the  edges  of  the  com- 
plex (see  site  plan)  both  to  define 
the  edges  and  to  soften  the  con- 


crete walls  And  of  course,  the 
bold  and  broad  use  of  concrete, 
as  well  as  the  size  of  the  com- 
plex, leads  to  the  criticism  of 
"monumentality" 

Erickson  winces  at  this  last 
criticism  — and  while  that  criticism 
IS  probably  inevitable,  it  is  surely 
debatable.  On  a  positive  note, 
the  three-block-long  complex, 
with  a  budget  of  $139  million,  is 
of  course  very  large;  but  that 
does  not  make  it  monumental  in 
the  perjorative  sense.  For  one 
thing,  it  is  surely  arguable  that 
monumentality  is  necessary  and 
desirable  in  a  major  public  build- 
ing; it  IS  surely  arguable  that, 
appropriately  designed,  we  need 
monuments.  But  if  this  is  a  monu- 


ment, it  is  one  designed  for  the 
people,  appropriate  to  its  uses 
and  its  setting  At  any  rate,  this  is 
a  far  more  sensitive  urban  solu- 
tion, especially  for  the  beautiful 
city  of  Vancouver,  than  an  earlier 
proposal  by  an  earlier  govern- 
ment and  architect  for  "the  high- 
est building  in  Vancouver"  on  the 
present  site.  It  would  have  been 
a  55-story  skyscraper  dominating 
the  skyline,  20  stories  taller  than 
the  now  highest  Toronto  Domin- 
ion Bank  tower 

The  project's  horizontality 
and  terracing,  and  its  use  of  con- 
crete as  the  basic  material,  grows 
out  of  its  site,  its  placement,  and 
Erickson's  earlier  work  — particu- 
larly Simon  Eraser  University,  the 


Museum  of  Anthropology,  and 
most  of  his  private  houses  — that 
built  his  distinguished  reputation 
and  his  selection  for  this  job.  This 
is  also  a  public  building,  clearly 
designed  with  the  public  in  mind 
Its  park  and  promenade  spaces 
invite  everyone  to  use  the  com- 
plex—whether they  have  busi- 
ness there  or  not.  Erickson  sees  it 
as  "a  mixture  of  grand  spaces 
and  smaller  more  intimate  places, 
landscaped  paths  and  quiet  cor- 
ners. We  used  the  familiar  tech- 
nique of  providing  surprises,  intri- 
guing views  at  the  end  of  a  walk- 
way or  corridor  — hoping  to  draw 
visitors  along  " 

As  noted  at   the  beginning, 
this    grand    complex    also    es- 


tablishes a  new  core  and  charac- 
ter for  its  city  — and  perhaps  that 
is  the  grandest  accomplishment 
of  all.

im"RODUCTION 

The  Henderson  Planning/Design  Group  is  a 
team  of  professionals  who  provide  a  full 
range  of  urban  planning  and  economic 
development  consulting  services  to 
communities,  agencies  and  private 
clients . 

Philip  Henderson  and  Richard  Beatty 
formed  the  firm  in  1977  after  working 
together  for  many  years  in  both  the 
public  and  private  sectors.  Together, 
they  have  over  35  years  of  experience 
in  planning,  designing  and  implementing 
urban  projects. 

Philip  Henderson  is  a  professional 
architect,  urban  designer  and  regional 
planner. 

During  five  years  at  the  Boston  Redevelop- 
ment Authority,  he  supervised  project 
planning  and  design  for  projects  through- 
out Boston's  downtown,  including  new 
commercial  development,  rehabilitation 
and  preservation  projects,  transportation 
projects,  and  area-wide  pedestrian 
improvements . 

He  subsequently  was  a  founder  and  Senior 
Associate  of  Charles  G.  Hilgenhurst  & 
Associates,  where  he  built  and  directed 
the  firm's  extensive  planning  and  urban 
design  consulting  practice  for  six  years. 

Richard  Beatty  brings  to  the  firm's  work 
a  strong  record  of  public  sector  exper- 
ience in  project  planning  and  implemen- 
tation, inter-agency  coordination, 
community  participation,  and  expediting 
of  complex  projects. 

During  fifteen  years  at  the  Boston 
Redevelopment  Authority  he  was  involved 


in  every  aspect  of  Boston's  massive 
Central  Business  District  project,  from 
initial  project  planning  through 
actual  construction  of  the  plan's  major 
components.  As  Project  Director,  he 
coordinated  all  of  the  agency's  downtown 
work,  and  maintained  a  cooperative  and 
close  relationship  with  Boston's 
business  community. 

During  six  years  at  the  Massachusetts 
Central  Transportation  Planning  Staff, 
he  programmed  and  managed  project 
planning  work  for  the  Executive  Office 
of  Transportation  and  Construction,  the 
Department  of  Public  Works,  and  the 
Massachusetts  Bay  Transportation 
Authority.  In  most  cases,  these  were 
very  large  multi-modal  projects  which 
involved  extensive  community  partici- 
pation and  inter-agency  coordination. 

Our  professional  team-building  approach 
enables  us  to  be  highly  responsive  to 
our  clients  and  to  provide  expertise 
specifically  matched  to  their  needs. 
The  Partners  are  directly  involved  in 
each  project,  providing  "single  point 
responsibility"  for  quality  of  work, 
budget  and  schedule.  Backing  up  the 
Partners  are  team  members  with  the  skills 
to  carry  out  an  entire  project  or  to 
complete  a  specialized  assignment  within 
a  project.  This  staffing  flexibility 
enables  us  to  respond  very  specifically 
to  a  client's  changing  needs. 

We  are  expanding  in  response  to  the 
complex  needs  of  our  clients  -  both 
public  and  private  -  in  the  1980' s. 
Our  recent  consulting  work  has  included 


downtown  revitalization  plans,  develop- 
ment plans  for  institutions  and  for 
privately  financed  projects,  regional 
transportation  planning,  feasibility 
studies  for  re-use  of  several  types  of 
buildings,  and  community  liaison 
programs  for  agencies. 

The  firm  is  currently  actively  involved 
in  the  following  projects: 

o  We  are  providing  feasibility  analyses, 
site  planning  and  marketing  services 
on  several  large  developments  for  a 
major  national  real  estate  developer. 

o  The  MBTA  and  North  Shore  Economic 
Council  have  retained  us  to  develop 
plans  and  an  implementation  strategy 
for  improved  public  transit  serving 
the  North  Shore  communities. 

o  We  are  analyzing  the  development 

potential  of  the  Revere  Beach  parking 
lots  to  help  the  City  of  Revere  ex- 
pedite redevelopment  of  this  prime 
site  overlooking  the  MDC  park  and  the 
ocean. 

o  Middleton,  MA.  hired  us  to  develop 
a  zoning  plan  to  improve  the  type  and 
design  of  development  along  the  Route 
114  corridor. 

o  We  are  continuing  to  provide  services 
on  a  sizeable  waste-to-energy  project 
north  of  Boston  which  will  recycle 
1500  tons  per  day  of  solid  waste  from 
cities  and  towns,  generating  electricity 
to  be  purchased  by  New  England  Power. 

o  Having  completed  a  development  plan  for 
the  historic  downtown  millyard  in  Ames- 
bury,  MA.,  we  are  helping  the  town  im- 
plement the  plan  and  secure  grants  for 
public  improvements.

REVERE  BEACH  DEVELOPMENT 

Henderson  Planning  and  RKG,  Associates 
analyzed  the  market  and  development 
feasibility  of  the  12  acre  parking  area 
at  Wonderland  Station  for  the  City  of 
Revere.   The  results  were  a  realistic 
housing  market  forecast  and  a  potential 
development  program  for  the  site  which 
overlooks  the  refurbished  MDC  Revere 
Beach  park  and  the  open  Atlantic. 

The  city  will  solicit  development  pro- 
posals early  in  1983  for  a  staged  con- 
struction of  up  to  700  high  quality 
condominium  units  and  20  to  30,000  square

CABOT,  CABOT  &  FORBES 


The  Henderson  Planning/Design  Group  is 
on  retainer  to  the  Industrial  Develop- 
ment Division  of  Cabot,  Cabot  &  Forbes 
to  augment  their  "in-house"  team  on  a 
variety  of  site  and  development  planning 
projects.  Services  have  included  site 
feasibility  analyses,  traffic  and 
parking  planning,  liaison  with  agencies 
and  communities,  and  presentations  of 
development  opportunities  to  potential 
users. 

The  firm  recently  analyzed  several 
excess  state  properties  for  CC&F  to 
determine  the  feasibility  of  private 
development  on  the  sites.  Analyses 
included  conversion  of  existing  structures 
to  office/industrial  use;  solutions  to 
traffic/access  problems  on-site  and  from 
major  arterial  roads;  and  possible 
strategies  to  assure  local  and  state 
support  for  the  projects. 


Other  assignments  have  involved  identi- 
fying potential  new  construction  sites 
for  large  R&D  clients  of  Cabot,  Cabot 
&  Forbes. 


In  all  cases,  the  Principals  of  the 
Henderson  Planning/Design  Group  worked 
closely  with  the  engineers,  development 
specialists,  marketing  personnel  and  the 
Director  of  Industrial  Development  at 
CC&F  to  provide  a  well  rounded  team  with 
the  specific  skills  required  for  these 
complex  projects.

FORT  POim   CHANNEL  BOSTON , MASSACHUSETTS 

The  principals  of  the  Henderson 
Planning/Design  Group  developed 
a  master  plan  for  the  Fort  Point 
Channel  are  of  Boston  which  is  now 
being  implemented  through  the 
adaptive  re-use  of  the  solid  old 
wool  industry  buildings  into  office 
space,  housing,  institutional  and 
commercial  activities.  This  area 
was  envisioned  as  a  logical  expansion 
of  downtown  Boston  focussing  on  the 
South  Station  Transportation  Center 
and  the  waterfrontage  on  the  channel 
and  inner  harbor. 

The  abandoned  Penn  Central  freight 
yards  offered  the  opportunity  for 
new  development  and  the  planning  team 
worked  closely  with  the  land  owners 
to  create  a  plan  for  housing,  hotel, 
commercial  and  open  space  on  this 
thirty  acre  tract. 

This  project  is  now  in  the  development 
stage  with  the  Children's  Museum  and 
several  office  space  conversions 
completed  and  final  plans  underway  for 
housing  and  a  hotel.  The  early 
comprehensive  planning  effort  helped 
provide  guidance  for  sound  investment 
decisions  and  established  the  public 
physical  and  policy  framework  so 
necessary  to  attract  the  private 
development. 


LYNN,  MASSACHUSETTS 


In  the  wake  of  the  devastating  fire  of 
November  28-29,  1981,  the  City  of  Lynn 
embarked  on  an  accelerated  planning 
effort  to  redirect  its  downtown  economic 
revitalization  and  turn  the  disaster  into 
a  new  opportunity  for  physical  and  social 
improvements.  The  Henderson  Planning/ 
Design  Group  was  retained  by  "Step  Up 
With  Lynn,  Inc.",  a  non-profit  public/ 
private  group  dedicated  to  Lynn's  down- 
town renewal ,  to  help  define  the  post- 
fire  planning  and  development  program. 

Working  with  on-going  plans  such  as  the 
Heritage  State  Park  on  the  waterfront, 
^4BTA  Central  Square  improvements ,  the 
new  $26  million  Lynn  campus  for  the  North 
Shore  Community  College  and  loft  building 
conversions  not  destroyed  by  the  fire, 
HP/DG  presented  an  overview  of  the  present 
development  potential  of  downtown  Lynn. 
Opportunities  were  defined  for  increasing 
the  positive  effect  of  the  various  new 
developments  and  for  reinforcing  them 
with  adjacent  development. 

One  of  the  products  of  our  work  was  a 
comprehensive  slide  presentation  on  the 
future  of  Lynn  which  is  being  used  by  the 
City  and  "Step  Up  With  Lynn,  Inc.",  to 
introduce  developers  and  investors  to  the 
opportunities  in  Lynn. 


AMES BURY  MILLYARD  DEVELOPMENT  PLAN 


Henderson  Planning  Group  was  retained  by 
the  Massachusetts  Government  Land  Bank 
to  work  with  the  Town  of  Amesbury,  MA  on 
a  re-use  consensus  and  development  plan 
for  the  historic  brick  millyard  complex 
in  the  town  center. 

The  scope  of  work  included  re-use,  struc- 
tural and  financial  analysis  of  the  eight 
buildings  and  design/development  guide- 
lines for  the  structures  and  open  space 
along  the  Powow  riverfront. 

Working  with  an  eleven- member  Millyard 
Advisory  Committee  appointed  by  the  Select- 
men and  Housing  Authority,  the  Henderson 
team  developed  a  plan  which  received  un- 
animous approval  of  the  Committee  and 
outlined  a  strategy  for  joint  public/ 
private  implementation  of  the  development.

BOSTON  CErfTRAL  BUSINESS  DISTRICT 

Philip  Henderson  was  Chief  of  Project 
Design  and  Richard  Beatty  the  Director  of 
Downtown  Development  at  the  Boston 
Redevelopment  Authority  during  the 
critical  years  of  planning  and  development 
implementation  in  the  1960's  and  early 
1970' s.  They  carried  responsibility 
within  the  CBD  Project  for  guiding  new 
development  and  traffic  planning,  design 
of  pedestrian  areas  and  parks,  and  for 
planning  and  preparing  developer's  kits 
for  several  large  multi-use  projects. 

More  than  $800,000,000  of  new  construction 
has  been  implemented  as  a  result  of  the 
plans  developed  by  the  CBD  team.  Formal 
designation  of  the  Customs  House/Broad 
Street  area  as  a  Historic  District  and 
rehabilitation  of  landmarks  such  as  Old 
City  Hall,  the  Old  Corner  Bookstore  and 
the  Record-American  Building  were 
accomplished  during  this  period. 

Throughout  Boston ' s  downtown  revitalization 
process,  very  close  liaison  was  maintained 

with  the  business  community.  Rich  Beatty 
was  the  City's  representative  on  the 
Committee  for  the  Central  Business  District, 
Inc. ,  which  was  a  full  partner  with  the 
City  during  the  redevelopment.

NEWBURYPORT,  MASSACHUSETTS 

The  Henderson  Group  has  had  an  ongoing 
planning  relationship  with  Newburyport, 
a  city  which  has  received  wide  acclaim 
for  its  sensitive  and  successful 
restoration  of  the  early  19th  century 
downtown  Market  Square. 

Our  services  in  Newburyport  have  included 
the  creation  of  a  development  strategy 
for  the  re-use  of  the  Central  Fire 
Station;  working  with  the  Mayor  and  the 
Community  Development  office  to  help 
establish  a  planning  approach  for  the 
downtown  waterfront;  and  participation 
in  a  re-use  analysis  for  a  large  down- 
town industrial  building. 

The  architecturally  significant  Central 
Fire  Station  is  the  keystone  for  the 
continued  revitalization  of  the  Market 
Square  area  and  the  waterfront.  The 
recommendation  to  include  this  structure 
as  an  integral  part  of  the  waterfront 
redevelopment  parcel  was  unanimously 
approved  by  the  City  Council  and  will 
provide  a  financial  incentive  as  well 
as  a  unique  design  opportunity  for  the 
developers  of  the  waterfront.

Assistance  was  given  to  the  City  in  prep- 
aring a  planning  strategy  for  the  entire 
downtown  waterfront  which  will  complement 
the  Market  Square  renewal  and  the  adjacent 
downtown  neighborhoods.  A  comprehensive 
waterfront  plan  is  now  being  made  for  the 
City  by  a  consultant  which  addresses  the 
area  and  issues  as  recommended. 

The  Henderson  Group  participated  in  a 
development  and  re-use  seminar  for  the 
owners  of  a  large  industrial  building 
within  the  waterfront  area.  Alternative 
courses  of  action  were  described  to  the 
client  which  included  various  re-uses 
and  the  needed  changes  in  the  surrounding 
environment  to  support  successful  reno- 
vation. Opportunities  for  cooperative 
action  with  owners  of  adjacent  properties 
were  also  explored.

WATERFRONT  DEVELOPMENT 
PORTSMOUTH,  NEW  HAMPSHIRE 

This  development  proposal  to  the  City 
of  Portsmouth  was  prepared  for  a  4 . 5 
acre  site  overlooking  the  Piscataqua 
River.  The  site  is  adjacent  to  the 
historic  Market  Street  restoration  area 
and  special  care  was  given  to  the  design, 
scale  and  architecture  so  that  it  will 
enhance  the  existing  downtown. 

The  development  consists  of  47  residential 
units  sited  to  take  advantage  of  the 
views  of  the  maritime  activity  and  the 
early  19th  century  downtown  buildings, 
and  approximately  26,000  square  feet  of 
commercial/office  space  in  a  cluster  of 
two-story  buildings  on  the  inland  portion 
of  the  site. 


Total  construction  cost  is  estimated  at 
$5,650,000  with  the  commercial/office 
space  to  be  built  and  marketed  in  three 
stages . 


Strong  pedestrian  connections  were  planned 
both  within  the  deveopment  and  connecting 
the  site  to  the  rest  of  downtown.  All 
parking  required  is  provided  on-site  and 
gathered  into  several  well  defined  areas, 
rather  than  scattered  among  the  buildings. 

The  creation  of  this  mixed-use  development 
will  provide  a  high  quality  addition  to 
the  successful  restoration  effort  underway 
in  New  Hampshire's  largest  seacoast 
community.

SOUTHWEST  CORRIDOR  PROJECT 

Mr.  Henderson  led  the  team  which  was 
responsible  for  the  planning  of  over 
$530  million  of  new  urban  development  in 
the  Massachusetts  Bay  Transportation 
Authority's  Southwest  Corridor  Project. 
The  Corridor  is  a  five  mile  swath  of 
land  running  through  several  Boston 
neighborhoods  which  was  originally 
cleared  for  construction  of  an  inter- 
state highway.  It  will  contain  new 
high  speed  Amtrak  service,  a  new  MBTA 
Orange  Line,  and  eight  new  stations, 
costing  a  total  of  $760  million.  Since 
the  land  area  required  for  these  facili- 
ties is  modest,  a  large  amount  of  excess 
cleared  land  has  been  divided  into  some 
75  development  parcels. 

The  team  formulated  a  master  land 
development  plan,  based  upon  detailed 
analysis  of  each  parcel  together  with 
an  extensive  community  participation  and 
review  process.  The  plan  includes 
1,000  dwelling  units,  3  million  sq.ft. 
of  commercial  space,  2  million  sq.ft  of 
institutional  space,  and  400,000  sq.ft. 
of  industrial  space,  all  linked  to  an 
80  acre  linear  park. 

Tools  were  developed  to  communicate  the 
tax,  job  generation,  traffic  and  other 
impacts  of  every  development  alternative 
for  every  parcel.  This  information, 
together  with  information  and  attitudes 
gathered  from  the  community,  was  used  to 
prepare  detailed  developer's  kits  for 
the  major  corridor  parcels.  Although 
construction  of  the  transit  facilities 
has  only  recently  begun,  private  develop- 
ment in  the  Jamaica  Plain  and  Roxbury 
neighborhoods  and  in  downtown  Boston 
on  corridor-related  sites  is  already 
underway.  It  will  eventually  result  in 


SOUTHWEST  CORRIDOR  cont'd. 

creation  of  up  to  12,000  new  jobs,  and 
tax  revenues  to  the  City  of  Boston  esti- 
mated at  $7  million  per  year. 

Mr.  Henderson's  team  worked  with  residents 
on  all  decisions  regarding  their  neighbor- 
hoods and  businesses.  With  as  many  as 
5,000  residents  participating  in  the 
project,  this  process  was  organized 
around  the  eight  station  areas  so  that 
residents  and  consultants  could  work 
together  as  much  as  possible  in  smaller 
groups . 

The  development  planners  were  also  part 
of  the  Project  Coordinating  Team,  and 
maintained  intensive  coordination 
throughout  the  process  with  the  archi- 
tects for  each  of  the  eight  stations  and 
with  a  very  large  engineering  team  to 
assure  workable  designs  and  construction 
staging  for  both  transit  facilities  and 
private  development.

WATERTOWN  ARSENAL  RE-USE  P1J\N 

Conversion  of  the  former  US  Army  Arsenal 
at  Watertown,  Massachusetts  to  civilian 
use  was  a  major  issue  in  the  town  for 
a  decade.  Numerous  attempts  to  develop 
the  125-acre  site  and  its  31  buildings 
had  failed.  A  group  of  concerned  Water- 
town  residents  then  formed  the  Watertown 
Arsenal  Alternative  Use  Committee  (WAAUC) 
.to  prepare  a  new  plan  for  the  site  which 
would  merit  broad  community  support . 

The  plan  which  Mr.  Henderson  prepared 
for  the  WAAUC  was  built  around  a  concept 
which  included  a  lively  mix  of  public 
and  institutional  uses  with  new  retail 
space.  Several  acres  of  existing  open 
space,  including  extensive  frontage  on 
the  Charles  River,  would  provide  the 
Town  much-needed  recreational  facilities. 

The  Arsenal  began  operation  in  1816, 
under  Captain  George  Talcott,  and  still 
contains  12  structures  of  significant 
historic  and  architectural  merit.  The 
plan  called  for  extensive  rehabilitation 
of  these  older  structures,  including 
re-use  of  several  for  Town  facilities. 

The  twentieth  century  saw  construction 
on  the  site  of  numerous  large  heavy 
industrial  structures  totaling  some 
945,000  square  feet  of  space.  Several  of 
the  newer  and  larger  buildings  were 
designated  for  institutional  and  museum 
uses,  and  others  for  indoor  recreation 
and  enclosed  shopping  areas. 

The  WAAUC  disbanded  upon  completion  of 
its  work,  and  the  Watertown  Redevelopment 
Authority  is  carrying  out  development  of 
the  Arsenal  site. 


HARBOR  PLAN,  NEW  HAVEN,  CONNECTICUT 

The  New  Haven  harbor  encompasses  over 
five  square  miles  of  water,  enclosed 
by  a  thirteen  mile  coastline.  It  opens 
directly  into  Long  Island  Sound. 

Over  recent  decades,  the  focus  of  New 
Haven's  development  activity  has 
shifted  away  from  the  harbor.  Water- 
front land  has  increasingly  been 
devoted  to  transportation  and  heavy 
industrial  uses,  and  the  water  itself 
has  become  severely  polluted.  The 
harbor,  however,  has  immense  untapped 
potential  to  regain  its  historic  role 
as  the  focus  for  New  Haven's  commercial 
and  recreational  growth  without  detri- 
ment to  its  continued  function  as  the 
shipping  port  serving  much  of  southern 
New  England. 

tir.  Henderson  and  members  of  the  firm 
prepared  a  comprehensive  concept  plan 
for  the  future  of  the  harbor,  and 
identified  a  series  of  feasible  "early 
action"  projects  for  specific  areas 
along  the  waterfront. 

A  wide  variety  of  activities  and  users 
are  affected  by  plans  for  the  harbor's 
future,  and  close  liaison  was  maintained 
with  groups  involved  in  shipping,  oyster 
cultivation,  recreation,  heavy  industry, 
historic  preservation,  sailing,  and 
development  of  commercial  and  residential 
projects  adjacent  to  the  water.  Ideas 
and  problems  relating  to  the  harbor  were 
discussed  in  small  working  meetings  and 
in  well  attended  public  symposia.

NORTH  SHORE  BUS  SYSTEM 
ESSEX  COUmr,  MASSACHUSETTS 

The  Henderson  Group  was  retained  by  the 
North  Shore  Economic  Council  to  design 
and  help  implement  a  regional  bus  system 
for  seventeen  communities  on  the  North 
Shore  of  the  Boston  area. 

The  first  phase  was  a  feasibility 
analysis  which  investigated  the  market 
for  ridership  in  the  region  and 
evaluated  various  alternative  systems, 
costs  and  funding  sources.  The  recommended 
alternative  was  a  moderate  sized  bus 
system  which  serves  primarily  the  more 
densely  populated  communities  of  Beverly, 
Salem,  Peabody  and  Danvers.  More  than  66% 
of  the  daily  trips  generated  in  this  area 
have  both  origin  and  destination  within 
the  area.  Therefore,  the  system  was  designed 
to  meet  these  regional  travel  needs  and 
to  interface  with  the  existing  commuter 
rail  stations  on  the  Eastern  Branch  of  the 
Boston  and  Maine  for  service  to  and  from 
downtown  Boston. 

The  second  phase  includes  refinement  of  the 
preferred  alternative  to  delineate  routes, 
schedules,  fares,  operating  costs  and 
establish  the  administrative  structure  to 
operate  the  system.

NORTH  SHORE  TRANSIT  PROJECT 

The  Massachusetts  North  Shore  is  an  area 
of  over  400  square  miles  stretching  along 
the  coast  from  Boston  to  New  Hampshire. 
Included  in  the  area  are  27  cities  and 
towns  served  by  the  Massachusetts  Bay 
Transportation  Authority  (MBTA) . 

Philip  Henderson  directed  a  planning  team 
which  worked  in  a  joint  venture  with  an 
engineer  and  Richard  Beatty  established 
the  liaison  program  and  coordinated  the 
planning  with  the  State  agencies  for  the 
analyses  of  rapid  transit,  commuter  rail, 
and  express  and  local  bus  services,  as 
well  as  the  identification  of  new  devel- 
opment opportunities  resulting  from  the 
transportation  improvements.  The  first 
phase  of  work  identified  forty  alternative 
service  and  alignment  options,  and 
narrowed  these  to  a  final  set  of  six. 
The  second  phase  of  work  then  produced 
an  environmental  impact  analysis  for 
each  alternative,  a  preferred  alter- 
native, and  a  capital  grant  application. 

A  strong  community  participation  program 
was  the  foundation  of  this  planning 
process.  It  kept  the  people  of  the  North 
Shore  informed  about  progress,  while 
also  making  the  consultant  team  and 
MBTA  staff  aware  of  the  concerns  and 
priorities  of  affected  communities. 
Sub-area  committees  included  represent- 
atives of  each  community  and  other 
interested  citizens,  and  met  regularly 
with  the  planning  team.  Public  community 
meetings  and  hearings  were  also  held 
periodically.  Newsletters  were  published 
and  distributed  throughout  the  area. 

The  Preferred  Alternative  includes  a 
carefully  balanced  package  of  improve- 
ments to  each  of  the  systems  serving 
the  North  Shore.  In  Salem  Massachusetts, 
the  plan  includes  a  new  commuter  rail 
and  bus  facility  to  upgrade  passenger 
service.  More  importantly,  the  station 


Existing  Lynn  Central  Square. 


Proposed  Ccnlral  Square  Station. 


will  be  relocated  to  a  new  site,  adjacent 
to  Salem's  revitalized  shopping  district, 
the  new  Essex  Street  Mall,  and  two 
development  sites.  This  station  relocat- 
ion plan  was  carefully  worked  out  with 
the  Salem  Planning  Department  as  an 
important  part  of  Salem's  revitalized 
downtown. 

In  Lynn,  Massachusetts,  the  plan  calls 
for  a  $250  Million  extension  of  the 
existing  MBTA  Blue  Line  transit  to  a  new 
terminal  in  Central  Square.  The  terminal 
will  provide  parking  for  2000  cars  and 
will  serve  the  Blue  Line,  commuter  rail, 
and  local  and  line-haul  buses.  Retail 
space  within  the  terminal,  together  with 
several  newly  created  development  sites 
will  be  a  major  element  in  downtown 
Lynn's  economic  recovery. 

When  fully  implemented,  the  improve- 
ments will  increase  the  accessibility 
of  North  Shore  communities  to  Boston's 
shopping  areas  and  jobs,  while  offering 
a  convenient  and  inexpensive  alternative 
to  the  private  automobile.  The  improve- 
ments will  also  increase  transit  use 
for  trips  between  North  Shore  communi- 
ties. Perhaps  most  importantly,  they 
will  increase  the  development  potential 
and  strengthen  the  economic  base  of  the 
entire  North  Shore.

neering world  more  than  once,  a 
result  of  the  example  set  by  Wil- 
liam J.  LeMessurier,  SCI's  founder 
and  Chairman  whose  creative 
spirit  pervades  the  entire  SCI  orga- 
nization. He  teaches  in  the  gradu- 
ate school  of  Harvard  and  is  one  of 
the  most  innovative  professionals 
in  the  nation. 


SCI 


SCI  projects  meet  client  demands, 
from  requirements  for  more  floor 
space,  as  in  the  Boston  Federal 
Reserve  Bank,  to  requests  for  a 
particular  physical  appearance,  as 
in  the  Johns-Manville  World 
Headquarters  in  Denver,  Colorado. 
But  SCI's  unique  capabilities  are 
also  demonstrated  in  highly  spe- 
cialized projects  like  the  award- 
winning  National  Aeronautics  and 
Space  Museum  in  Washington, 
DC,  and  the  Dallas-Fort  Worth 
Airport  in  Texas. 

SCI's  achievements  range  from 
elegant  Hyatt  Regency  hotels  to 
consulting  on  building  renova- 
tions. In  all  assignments  the  SCI 
effort  is  directed  at  how  best  to  sat- 
isfy client  wishes,  and  this  nearly 
always  means  working  closely 
with  project  architects  and  owners 
right  from  the  start.  This  team  con- 
cept, or  what  LeMessurier  calls 
SCI's  total  system  of  effort,  often 
results  in  special  answers  to  some 
of  the  most  difficult  problems  in 
engineering,  such  as  wind  dynam- 
ics and  building  motion.  One 
example  of  this  kind  of  unique 
solution  is  that  of  Citicorp  Center 
in  New  York  City,  which  has 
within  it  a  Tuned  Mass  Damper 
designed  by  SCI  and  applied  for 
the  first  time  in  the  history  of  the 
world  to  a  tall  building.  Two  such

dampers  have  also  been  installed 
in  another  tall  building  in  Boston, 
thus  enhancing  the  livability  of  the 
building  in  high  wind. 

Because  no  building  is  complete 
without  the  proper  internal  organs, 
SCI  specializes  in  advanced  engi- 
neering solutions  for  every  aspect 
of  internal  climate  control,  electri- 
cal, plumbing  and  process  facili- 
ties, and  central  power  plants.  It  is 
the  economical  incorporation  of 
these  systems  within  widely  vary- 
ing architectural  themes  which  dis- 
tinguishes SCI's  innovative 
approach.  SCI  consults  on  com- 
mercial and  civic  centers,  educa- 
tional and  health  facilities,  sports 
arenas,  transportation  facilities  and 
even  seaside  aquariums.  Complex 
seawater  processing/distribution 
systems  had  to  be  designed  for  the 
exhibit  tanks  at  the  New  England 
and  Baltimore  Aquariums. 
Another  type  of  SCI-designed  cli- 
mate control  can  be  found  at  the 
Tufts-New  England  Medical 
Center,  where  an  advanced  air- 
conditioning  system  uses  color- 
coded  pipes  to  carry  both  chilled 
water  and  steam. 

For  efficiency  and  to  obtain  the 
most  economical  design,  both  in 
terms  of  initial  cost  and  in  terms  of 
energy  conservation,  all  SCI  engi- 
neers make  use  of  the  firm's  own

computer  capabilities  to  assist  in 
design  work.  SCI  has  long  had  an 
in-house  computer  which  permits 
the  consideration  of  various  alter- 
natives in  the  design  and  to  pro- 
vide the  client  with  choices  about 
trade-offs  in  the  finished  facility. 
The  SCI  goal  is  always  to  make  the 
natural  world  more  hospitable  to 
the  user's  needs. 

SCI  also  provides  expert  counsel 
on  water  resource  planning.  This 
service  is  rendered  to  communi- 
ties, industrial  concerns,  federal 
and  state  agencies,  as  well  as 
foreign  clients.  A  modern  sewage 
treatment  facility  has  been 
designed  in  Simsbury,  Connecti- 
cut, surpassing  federal  and  local 
requirements.  SCI  has  designed 
many  other  comparable  systems 
including  dams  and  other  facilities 
to  contain  a  city's  entire  water  sup- 
ply. SCI  provides  expert  counsel  in 
arid  regions  of  the  world,  where 
maintaining  a  continuous  clean 
water  supply  can  be  extremely 
difficult.

To  tour  Boston  is  to  take  a  stroll 
through  SCI's  corporate  brochure  ex- 
cept that  brochure  photographs  sud- 
denly take  life  and  invade  our  con- 
sciousness as  real,  people-inhabited, 
totally  functional  buildings. 

For  example,  walking  away  from 
downtown  toward  South  Station, 
once  THE  focal  point  of  the  Dewey 
Square  area,  there  rises  the  Federal 
Reserve  Bank  Complex  in  new  gran- 
deur, a  magnificent  33-story  office 
tower  above  a  beautifully  landscaped 
plaza  which  supports  an  adjoining 
four-story  Bank  Operations  Center, 
vaults  and  an  auditorium,  daily  the 
subject  of  camera  enthusiasts.  Archi- 
tectural Design:  Hugh  Stubbins  &  As- 
sociates. 

Across  the  way  on  the  corner  of 
Federal  Street  there  is  the  new  Fidu- 
ciary Trust  Building,  remarkable  in  its 
unusual  shape  —  an  irregular  hexa- 
gon, a  sixteen-story  office  tower 
standing  strong,  a  monument  to  ar- 
chitectural, contractor  and  structural 
engineering  genius  struggling  to  re- 
solve the  almost  insurmountable 
problem  of  building  over  a  site  riddled 
with  old  utilities,  footings,  piers  and 
debris  uncountable.  Architectural  De- 
sign; The  Architects  Collaborative, 
Inc. 

And  that  thirty-four  story  office 
building  along  the  way  toward  the 
harbor,  eye  catching  in  precast  archi- 
tectural concrete  and  glass,  is  the 
State  Street  Bank  Building.  Architec- 
tural Design:  F.  A.  Stahl  &  Associ- 
ates/Hugh Stubbins  &  Associates. 
Directly  on  the  waterfront,  don't 
miss  the  educational  experience  of 
the  New  England  Aquarium,  the  origi- 
nal building  of  which  won  a  Progres- 
sive Architecture  Design  Awards  Ci- 
tation back  in  1965.  Since  then,  there 
has  been  a  Main  Building  Addition, 
making  this  a  prime  attraction  for 
families  and  school  groups  through- 
out the  state.  Architectural  Design: 
Cambridge  Seven  Associates. 

Tour  on  —  there  are  so  many 
structures  on  which  SCI  worked  as 
engineering  design  consultants.

Vanasse/Hangen 

Consulting  Engineers  &  Planners 
Boston,  Massachusetts  02110 


The  Firm 


Vanasse/Hangen  Associates,  Inc.  (V/H),  a  planning  and  engineering 
consulting  firm,  has  undertaken  more  than  300  planning,  impact  and 
engineering  studies  and  design  projects.  Clients  include  state 
highway  departments,  transit  authorities,  cities  and  towns,  commer- 
cial, industrial  and  real  estate  developers,  hospitals,  univer- 
sities, architectural  and  engineering  consulting  firms. 

The  staff  of  about  50  includes  25  professionals,  15  of  whom  are 
registered  professional  engineers  (registered  in  14  states),  urban 
planners,  landscape  architects  and  a  registered  land  surveyor. 
This  permits  V/H,  in  many  cases,  to  offer  full  design  services 
in-house.  The  staff  includes  13  members  of  the  Institute  of 
Transportation  Engineers. 

These  professionals  average  more  than  10  years  experience  and  have 
been  in  responsible  charge,  or  have  overseen,  some  $400  million  in 
facility  improvements.  They  have  developed  proficiency  in  produc- 
ing environmental  impact  statements  and  conducting  the  public 
liaison  and  agency  participation  required  to  bring  projects  to 
fruition.  Plans,  specifications  and  estimates,  and  construction 
services,  have  been  completed  or  are  in  process  for  a  dozen  highway 
design/traffic  engineering/transit  improvement  projects  each 
exceeding  $1  million  in  construction  costs.  These  projects  include 
roadways,  site  grading  and  improvements,  drainage  and  utilities, 
pedestrian  malls,  special  transit/bus  provisions,  parking  areas  and 
traffic  signals. 

Work  for  New  England  clients  has  led  to  projects  in  New  York,  New 
Jersey,   Virginia,   Kentucky,   South   Carolina,   Florida,   Colorado, 
Canada   and   Saudi   Arabia.    Branch  offices  have  been   opened   in 
Portland,  Maine  and  Orlando,  Florida.

Experience  of  the  Firm 


On  the  following  pages  are  listed  some  of  the  more  than  300 
projects  already  undertaken  by  the  firm.  The  projects  are  divided 
into  several  categories: 

•  Development/Environmental  Impact  Studies 

•  Central  Business  District  Studies  and  Urban  Design 

•  Bus/Transit  Related  Projects 

•  Parking  Studies 

•  Highway  Design 

A  few  projects  may  be  listed  under  two  categories  because  two  major 
disciplines  are  involved.  Also,  a  number  of  impact  and  CBD  studies 
led  to  follow-on  facility  design  projects,  explaining  why  similar 
project  titles  may  appear  under  two  headings. 

In  general,  the  disciplines  and  services  offered  by  V/H  include  the

Central  Business  District 
(CBD)  Studies  &  Urban  Design 


V/H  has  conducted  a  thorough  analysis  of  the  transportation  systems 
in  large  cities  and  towns.  The  objective  is  usually  to  revitalize 
core  retail  areas  and  capture  a  greater  share  of  the  retail,  coiaiaer- 
cial  and  even  tourist  market.  The  methodology  is  to  determine  the 
demands  being  placed  on  each  transportation  component  —  street 
capacity,  parking,  transit,  pedestrian  access  and  safety,  etc.  — 
and  to  reallocate  space  and  redesign  a  balanced  system.  The  follow- 
ing is  a  partial  listing  of  typical  studies. 

•  Fitchburg,  lAh  -  Conceptual  plans  to  revitalize  the  CBD, 
especially  Main  Street,  the  spine  of  the  city's  revitalization 
area. 

•  Gloucester,  lAK  -  Study  generated  by  local  businessmen  of  down- 
town circulation  and  parking  for  CBD  to  provide  access  as  a 
regional  shopping  area. 

•  Medford,  MA  -  Planning  for  a  major  pedestrian/transit  mall  and 
a  ring  road  to  divert  through  traffic  around  the  retail  trade 
area . 

•  Norwood  MA  -  CBD  study  to  relieve  congestion  and  provide 
various  amenities,  update  antiquated  signal  system,  provide 
additional  parking  and  a  parking  management  program. 

•  Somerville,  MA  -  Union  Square.  Through -oriented  traffic, 
including  a  heavy  truck  component,  makes  the  street  environment 
less  desirable  in  the  heart  of  Somerville' s  commercial  area. 
V/H  design  provides  improvements  compatible  with  urban  growth 
objectives . 

•  South  Norwalk,  CT  -  Master  plan  for  revitalization  of  CBD  and 
major  reuse  of  the  waterfront  area,  including  housing  and 
marine-related  development  and  possible  marine  transportation. 

•  Springfield,  MA  -  Working  as  part  of  an  urban  development  team, 
V/H developed  a  transportation  plan  to  balance  needs  of  buses, 
truck  loading  zones,  pedestrians  and  through/local  vehicles 
circulation  and  parking. 

•  Webster,  lAK  -  Study  objective  was  to  revitalize  a  regional 
downtown  retail  trade  area,  increasing  accessibility,  to  make 
it  more  competitive  with  suburban  malls. 

•  VJeymouth,  MA  -  Parking  and  circulation  needs  and  capacities  in 
Central  and  Jackson  Squares  permitted  increasing  open  space  for 
improved  pedestrian  access  and  landscaping.

Bus  /  Transit  Related  Projects 


As  is  additionally  indicated  in  the  resumes  of  the  V/H  personnel, 
the  firm  and  its  personnel  have  had  extensive  experience  in  the 
operation,  routing  and  scheduling  of  bus  systems,  and  the  traffic 
engineering  improvements  (or  TSM  -  Transportation  System  Management) 
necessary  to  improve  traffic  flow. 

A  sampling  of  previous  projects  and  brief  descriptions  are  listed 
below: 

o  Montachusetts  Transit  Development  (TDP)  Program,  Massachusetts 
-  updating  of  routes,  implementation  of  new  service,  schedule 
improvements . 

o  Middletown,  Connecticut  -  established  transit  development  pro- 
gram for  Middletown  (Midstate  Planning  Region)  area,  including 
evaluation  of  routes  and  frequencies,  fare  structures  and 
operating  management  techniques. 

o  Department  of  Environmental  Management,  Massachusetts  -  devel- 
oped transit  access  plan  for  inner  city  residents  to  reach 
coastal  recreational  facilities,  particularly  on  weekends. 

o  Dewey  Square  Boston  -  selected  on  team  to  redesign  Dewey 
Square  to  better  accommodate  intermodal  and  bus  transfers,  HOV 
(high  occupancy  vehicles),  priority  signals  (preemption)  for 
buses,  access  configuration,  pedestrian  patterns. 

o  Hospital  Shuttle  Bus  Systems  and  M.I.T.  Shuttle  Bus  System  - 
developed  shuttle  bus  systems  for  St.  Elizabeth's,  Faulkner 
and  Mass.  General  Hospitals  in  Boston,  and  Winchester  Hospital 
to  meet  parking  deficit  requirements.  MIT  shuttle  bus 
operates  between  Wellesley  College  and  MIT.

According  to  history  texts,  Ameri- 
can troops  under  the  leadership  of 
George  Washington  camped  along 
the  banks  of  the  Assunpink  Creek  in 
preparation  for  the  Battles  of  Prince- 
ton and  Trenton  and  the  Crossing 
of  the  Delaware  during  the  Revolu- 
tionary War.  This  area  was  developed 
as  a  public  park  by  the  City  of  Tren- 
ton within  the  Mercer  Jackson  Urban 
Renewal  Area. 

The  Park  forms  the  spine  of  the  urban 
renewal  area  for  one  quarter  mile 
of  the  Creek.  It  is  comprised  of  nar- 
row strips  of  land  along  both  sides  of 
the  Creek  which  include  an  amphi- 
theater and  walks  along  the  Creek 
edge. 

In  addition  to  the  design  of  the  Park, 
the  Partnership's  work  also  included 
design  of  improvements  to  the  chan- 
nel and  banks  of  the  Assunpink 
Creek.  Such  improvements  could 
have  potentially  eaten  up  the  whole 
budget  for  the  park  and  severely 
reduced  the  Creek's  value  as  an 
amenity  to  the  Park.  However,  the 
Partnership  investigated  and  recom- 
mended the  use  of  the  Gabion  system 
of  embankments  which  lends  itself 
to  the  Park's  natural  settmg  while  also 
keeping  the  Creek  accessible  to 
users  of  the  Park.  This  arrangement 
allows  proper  drainage  of  the  prop- 
erty behind  the  walls,  much  of  which 
is  private,  and  still  controls  erosion 
on  the  banks.

of  Philadelphia's  effort  to 
provide  numerous  visitor  attrac- 
tions, amenities  and  services 
for  the  Bicentennial  Celebration 
of  1976. 

Design  and  construction  documents 
were  then  prepared  by  The

centralized  areas  of  services, 
including  improvements  to  Frank-

information  areas,  bike  racks, 
and  an  observation  walk  for  an

such  elements  as  street  trees, 
benches  and  tables,  trash  recep- 
tacles, bus  canopies,  portable 
drinking  fountains,  crosswalk 
graphics,  banners,  temporary 
toilet  facilities,  and  wall  murals 

Throughout  the  planning,  design 
and  construction  process,  time 
was  of  the  essence.   Work  began 
in  August  1975;  by  July  4,  1976

South  Cove  Plaza 
Boston,  Massachusetts 


In  the  midst  of  Boston's  theater  dis- 
trict sits  one  of  Boston's  major  public 
open  spaces,  South  Cove  Plaza.  The 
Firm's  design  for  this  plaza  is  in- 
tensely urban,  reflecting  the  fact  that 
it  is  for  the  use  of  nearby  residents, 
theater-goers,  workers  in  the  area 
and  church  groups. 

South  Cove  Plaza  provides  a  summer 
refuge  for  city  dwellers  with  sitting 
areas  under  a  canopy  of  trees  and 
an  amphitheater  for  performances 
by  local  theater  groups.  During  the 
winter,  the  design  calls  for  ice  skatmg 
as  a  primary  activity. 

The  Plaza  is  also  a  focus  for  formal 
and  mformal  community  activities. 
Several  gardens  on  the  Plaza  are 
cared  for  by  local  garden  clubs.  A 


new  Church  of  all  Nations  is  located 
at  one  corner  of  the  Plaza.  In  addi- 
tion, open  aieas  of  the  Plaza  were 
designed  to  accommociale  art  shows 
and  other  city  talis. 

Finally,  the  design  related  to  bLJsi- 
ness  interests  in  the  area.  The  new 
Omonoia  Restaurant  has  outdoor  din- 
ing on  the  Plaza,  while  th^  location 
of  a  nev.'  subway  entrance  will  be 
covered  by  a  kiosk  foi  commiinity  in- 
foimation  until  such  time  as  the  new 
station  is  built. 

The  project  is  being  funded  thiough 
the  Boston  Redevelopment  .-^ut^lotlly 
by  a  S500.000  grant  frofu  the  U  3. 
Buieau  of  Outdooi  Recreation.

RIVERFRONT  PLAZA- 
FORT  LAUDERDALE,  FLORIDA 


Site  plan,  perspectives  sketches, and  sections. 


A  design  for  the  Riverfront  Plaza  in  Fort  Lauderdale 
was  done  as  a  competion  in  the  Schnadelbach  office. 
A  specific  list  of  set  program  requirements  was  given 
as  a  basis  for  the  design  project.   One  of  the  most 
important  requirements  was  that  the  plaza  relate  to 
the  New  River  and  to  the  existing  park  on  the  river. 
The  program  included  the  need  for  two  commercial 
buildings  to  house  offices,  shops,  and  a  restaurants. 
In  the  firms  design  two  buildings  were  sited  for  these 
uses.  A  large  plaza/  ampitheater  united  the  two  with  an 
open  space.  A  water  feature  strikingly  divided  the 
space-  250  feet  in  lenght.  This  feature   directed  plaza 
users  through  the  site  and  pointed  its  axis  to  the  New 
River.  Water  jets  and  paving  blocks  were  designed  to 
breakup  the  volume  of  water.

El  iironmental  Analysis 
A1  'nfic  City  Master  Plan 
Atlantic  City,  New  Jersey 


i 


The  Partnership  was  retained  to  pre- 
pare the  environmental  portions  of  the 
Atlantic  City  Master  Plan.  As  environ- 
mental consultants  we  compiled  a  com- 
prehensive inventory  of  the  environ- 
mental conditions  surrounding  the  city, 
and  this  inventory  became  the  basis  for 
future  land  use  and  developmental 
planning. 

The  environmental  inventory  included 
an  in-depth  analysis  of  hydrologic,  cli- 
matologic,  and  geologic  conditions  in 
Atlantic  City.  Wildlife,  vegetation  and 
other  ecological  systems  were  studied, 
and  factors  that  could  have  an  impact 
on  these  systems  were  identified. 


To  perform  this  analysis,  an  exten- 
sive data  collection  program  was  imple- 
mented and  relevant  information  was 
gathered  from  local,  county,  state,  and 
federal  agencies.  The  development 
potential  of  each  area  within  Atlantic 
City  and  its  surrounding  wetlands  was 
then  analyzed,  and  options  were  pre- 
pared concerning  the  dispostion  of  key 
land  parcels.

Villa  Vista  Housing 
Coney  Island,  New  York 


The  New  York  State  Urban  Develop- 
ment Corporation  recently  began  a 
policy  of  building  "replication"— of 
duplicating  on  City  sites  existing  UDC 
fiousing  which  has  proved  to  meet 
the  needs  of  modest  and  low  income 
families.  The  Twin  Parks  Site  4  hous- 
ing, being  judged  of  exceptional  ar- 
chitectural and  living  quality,  was 
chosen  for  replication  three-fold  on 
Coney  Island. 

The  same  thorough  environmental 
and  open  space  analysis  which  pre- 
cedes all  site  design  here  produced 
a  sweep  of  three  buildings  connected 
by  an  open  breezeway  arcade  and 
promenade,  with  terraces.  A  grassy 
interior  commons  permits  informal 
social  activities;  its  peri  meter  is  a  sand 
dune  levee  designed  to  protect  the 


site  from  storm  flooding.  Its  form  and 
planting  design  seeks  to  re-establish 
the  sand  dune  ecology  that  once  was 
Coney  Island.

New  Orleans  Central  District  Plan  and 
Implementation  Program 
City  Planning  Commission  of  New  Orleans 
New  Orleans,  Louisiana 


The  innovative  planning  and  zoning 
approaches  developed  in  this  project 
by  the  firm  (and  since  enacted  into  law) 
will  guide  new  development  in  the 
central  business  district  of  New 
Orleans.  The  plan  places  maximum 
emphasis  on  incentives  to  encourage 
developers  to  provide  public  ameni- 
ties suited  to  pedestrian  needs  and 
the  New  Orleans  climate  such  as  ar- 
cades, galleries,  minipari<s  and  ele- 
ments of  an  upper-level  pedestrian 
circulation  system.  An  extensive 
pedestrian  system  has  also  been 
planned  for  an  area  along  the 
f^ississippi  riverfront. 


The  New  Orleans  central  business 
district  includes  areas  of  unique  his- 
toric and  architectural  interest  which 
are  protected  by  the  plan's  special 
controls  on  building  heights  and  street 
facade  alignment.  Provisions  of  the 
plan  support  and  encourage  the  pres- 
ervation and  rehabilitation  of  land- 
mark buildings  by  allowing  transfer  of 
development  rights  from  landmari< 
sites  to  development  parcels.  The  latter 
device  can  be  effectively  used  in  com- 
bination with  the  new  special  tax  dis- 
trict's program  of  facade  easement 
purchase.

New  Orleans  Central  District  Plan  and 
Implementation  Program 


Basic  to  the  success  of  the  implemen- 
tation program  are  its  land  use,  den- 
sity, and  parking  regulations.  These 
regulations  allow  for  growth  in  selec- 
ted locations  while  retaining  a  compact 
form,  enabling  the  business  district  to 
be  well  served  by  public  transit  and  to 


retain  its  thriving  retail  center.  Policies 
for  space-efficient  parking  proved 
important  in  guiding  central  business 
district  expansion,  since  traffic  con- 
gestion proved  a  major  limiting  factor 
in  determining  proper  density.

JASON  M.CORTELL 

AND  ASSOCIATES  INC. 


THE  FIRM 


JASON  M.  CORTELL  and  ASSOCIATES  INC.  was  founded  in  1963  as  a  con- 
sulting firm  specializing  in  aquatic  biology  and  water  quality.  The  firm  has  since 
evolved  into  a  multidisciplinary  environmental  consulting  organization  dealing 
with  a  broad  range  of  issues. 

The  firm's  reputation  has  been  built  on  the  sound  application  of  ecological  criteria 
in  the  evaluation  of  the  planning,  design,  and  construction  phases  of  all  types  of 
development  projects.  These  include  transportation,  navigation,  energy,  recrea- 
tion, industrial  and  commercial  development. 

JMCA  has  undertaken  and  successfully  completed  a  variety  of  projects  for  both 
governmental  agencies  and  private  interests  throughout  the  United  States  and 
abroad.  While  in  most  cases  the  firm  works  directly  for  the  client,  it  also  collab- 
orates with  the  nation's  leading  architectural  and  engineering  firms  as  part  of  a 
team  effort.  In  recent  years,  the  scope  of  JMCA's  work  has  expanded  to  include 
a  wider  diversity  of  clients  and  projects. 

For  public  sector  clients,  JMCA  has  assisted  federal  and  state  agencies  with  NEPA- 
related  environmental  assessments  and  analyses.  For  private  clients,  the  firm  offers 
environmental  consulting  and  planning  services  to  support  development  of  new 
facilities.  JMCA  studies  and  reports  provide  a  substantive  information  base  to 
aid  permit-issuing  agencies  in  evaluation  of  environmental  issues  which  pertain  to 
a  particular  application  or  approval  request. 

As  a  result  of  the  exceptionally  wide  array  of  disciplines  and  skills  of  in-house 
personnel,  JMCA  is  able  to  staff  most  projects  wholly  from  its  own  resources,  to 
develop  an  ecological/environmental  approach  that  accurately  matches  the 
dimensions  and  scope  of  the  assigned  problem,  and  to  provide  those  services 
within  a  time  frame  that  meets  demanding  schedules.  Specific  talents  are  assigned 
to  a  given  project  on  an  as-needed  basis,  with  continuing  project  coordination  and 
direction  assigned  to  one  professional.  Projects  are  reviewed  by  an  interdisciplinary 
committee  of  senior  staff  members,  thereby  providing  the  client  with  a  broad 
range  of  experience  and  expertise  in  the  most  cost-effective  manner. 

JMCA  offers  extensive  field  services  in  connection  with  its  laboratory  facility  in 
Waltham,  including  air  quality  monitoring,  noise  monitoring,  and  water  quality 
analysis.  Each  monitoring  effort  relies  on  techniques,  instrumentation,  and  quality 
assurance  programs  that  meet  or  surpass  Federal  and  state  requirements. 

JMCA  also  maintains  a  Quality  Assurance  Program  to  ensure  that  its  clients 
receive  analyses  and  recommendations  based  on  the  most  current  information. 
To  implement  this  program,  staff  members  spend  a  portion  of  each  month  in 
professional  development,  including  reviews  of  recent  publications  in  their 
particular  field  of  specialization.  This  research  keeps  JMCA  abreast  of  the  latest 
developments  in  environmental  science  and  technology  and  the  evolution  of 
environmental  law.

Permits, 
Approvals, 
Licenses  & 
Certifications 


The  JMCA  staff  is  highly  skilled  and  experienced  in  the  regulatory  processes  which 
govern  site  development.  A  connprehensive  and  fast  track  approach  has  been  devel- 
oped to  facilitate  all  review  procedures  including  local,  county,  State,  and  Federal 
approvals.  JMCA  has  the  expertise  to  focus  data  gathering,  provide  agency  liaison, 
present  technical  information  at  public  and  agency  review  proceedings,  and  assure 
the  timely  granting  of  required  permits  and  approvals. 


Regulatory 
Requirements 
Source  Book 


Early  identification,  inventory,  and  analysis  of  the  regulatory  requirements  to  which 
a  specific  proiect  is  subject  are  essential.  JMCA's  review  of  applicable  regulations 
results  in  a  Regulatory  Requirements  Source  Book  which  compiles  all  permit  proce- 
dures, data  requirements,  and  review  periods.  The  document,  which  is  produced 
m  a  looseleaf  notebook  format,  facilitates  planning  and  data  gathering  efforts  and 
targets  early  work  to  final  requirements,  precluding  redundant  efforts  and  incom- 
plete submissions.  The  Regulatory  Requirements  Source  Book  is  updated  periodi- 
cally, thereby  providing  each  member  of  the  development  team  with  ready  access 
to  the  most  current  requirements  to  which  the  project  will  be  sub|ect. 


Record  of 
Permits  and 
Approvals 


As  a  project  progresses  from  the  initial  approval  stage  to  construction,  the  Source 
Book  IS  incorporated  into  a  Record  of  Permits  and  Approvals  document.  This  serves 
as  the  master  reference  document  for  all  members  of  the  project  team,  compiling 
permit  applications  as  they  are  submitted,  tabulating  the  status  of  all  regulatory 
requirements,  and  charting  the  permitting  process  for  the  project.  The  document 
IS  updated  on  a  regular  basis  as  project  design  is  finalized  or  as  regulatory  require- 
ments are  modified.  With  many  former  Federal  programs  in  the  process  of  being 
taken  over  at  the  State  level,  it  is  particularly  important  to  have  all  requirements 
tabulated  in  such  a  manner.  To  that  end,  JMCA  computerizes  its  permit  tracking  to 
facilitate  regular  updates,  to  allow  clear  delineation  of  any  modification  to  require- 
ments, and  how  this  affects  other  contingent  requirements  or  schedules.  The 
goal  of  the  JMCA  approach  is  to  obtain  all  components  of  project  approval  free 
of  unnecessary  delays.

SERVICES  OFFERED  BY  THE  FIRM 


Environmental 

Impact 

Statements 


The  successful  completion  of  an  Environmental   Impact  Statement  requires 
thorough  understanding  of  the  procedural  steps,  expertise  to  generate  appropriate 
and  accurate  data,  and  ability  to  work  effectively  with  reviewing  agencies.  When 
NEPA  became  law  in  1970,  there  were  no  methodologies  for  systematic  environ- 
mental assessment.  Experience  in  the  preparation  of  Environmental   Impact 
Statements  provides  the  most  relevant  understanding  of  existing  legislation  and 
the  ability  to  translate  problem-solving  techniques  into  specific  actions.  With 
increased  public  participation  in  the  decision-making  process  throughout  the 
1970's,  JMCA  refined  its  public  information  and  awareness  programs  to  facilitate 
the  review  aspects  of  the  Impact  Statement  process.  Each  program  is  tailored  to 
the  scope  and  size  of  the  project,  the  nature  and  sophistication  of  the  community, 
and  the  environmental  sensitivity  of  the  project  site. 


JMCA  may  either  assume  overall  responsibility  for  preparation  of  the  EIS  or 
participate  in  the  process  by  providing  specific  technical  data.  The  breadth  and 
depth  of  JMCA's  in-house  staff  enables  the  firm  to  prepare  an  EIS  in  a  cohesive 
and  efficient  manner  or  to  call  on  particular  members  of  the  staff  to  make  specific 
technical  contributions  to  Statements  being  prepared  by  others.  The  firm  has 
been  responsible  for  EIS  preparation  for  the  U.S.  Navy,  the  U.S.  Coast  Guard,  the 
Boston  Area  Office  of  HUD,  the  U.S.  Army  Corps  of  Engineers,  the  New  Jersey

Environmental 
Assessments 


As  part  of  the  federal  environmental  decision-making  process,  several  agencies 
have  initiated  the  Environmental  Assessment  procedure.  Closely  related  to  the 
Environmental  Impact  Statement,  technical  data  is  provided  and  the  same  range 
of  concerns  are  addressed  but  the  document  is  intended  for  use  within  an  agency 
rather  than  being  circulated  for  public  review.  JMCA's  ability  to  create  inter- 
disciplinary teams  from  its  in-house  staff  enables  the  firm  to  adapt  its  expertise 
to  the  particular  project  to  match  the  client's  needs.  The  company's  diverse 
experience  has  made  it  responsive  to  the  scope  and  data  requirements  of  such 
Assessments,  and  adaptable  to  the  production  of  a  report  which  serves  a  variety 
of  subjects  and  goals.  In  practice,  an  assessment  of  the  existing  environment  may 
include  any  or  all  of  the  following  disciplines:  air  quality,  water  quality  and  sup- 
ply, hydrology,  geology,  soils,  topography,  vegetation,  wildlife,  ecology,  demo- 
graphy, history,  archaeology,  and  land  use.

SERVICES  OFFERED  BY  THE  FIRM 


Marine 
Biology 


JMCA  has,  through  considerable  experience,  developed  the  ability  to  work  effec- 
tively in  marine  environments.  Company-owned  survey  craft  allow  JMCA  resource 
scientists  to  obtain  biological  samples  as  well  as  physical  and  chemical  data  from 
marine  areas  for  studies  related  to  the  construction  of  various  types  of  onshore 
and  offshore  facilities.  Analytical  techniques  include  the  utilization  of  a  series  of 
advanced  computer  programs  for  marine  benthic  samples  as  indicators  of  ambient 
and  long  term  water  quality.  These  capabilities  have  been  demonstrated  in  JMCA's 
marine  dredging  and  disposal  site  analyses;  port  facilities  siting  and  environmental 
assessments,  estuarine  monitoring  programs  included  in  environmental  impact 
studies  for  harbor  construction;  ocean  outfall/effluent  discharge  permit  studies; 
and  the  development  of  area  guideline  manuals  to  be  used  in  conjunction  with 
marine  construction. 


Freshwater 
Ecology 


JMCA  provides  professional  interpretation  of  the  complex  aquatic  environment 
and  community  interrelationships.  This  expertise  stems  from  the  firm's  experience 
in  literature  research  as  well  as  field  and  laboratory  studies  of  plankton,  periphyton, 
macrophyton,  macroinvertebrates,  and  fisheries  community  analysis.  A  wide  variety 
of  field  monitoring  equipment  is  used  to  ascertain  long  term  and  seasonal  variations 
in  the  freshwater  environment.  The  habitats  and  life-cycle  requirements  of  the 
different  organisms  are  ascertained  and  utilized  to  predict  impacts  or  anticipated 
changes  resulting  from  a  project.  JMCA  offers  expertise  in  determining  food  chains, 
studies  of  trophic  levels  (mass  balance  nutrient  budget  studies),  and  transfer  of 
energy  throughout  the  aquatic  ecosystem. 


Terrestrial 
Ecology 


JMCA  offers  expertise  in  plant  ecology  and  wildlife  biology.  Experience  ranges 
from  regional  surveys  and  identification  of  vegetative  community  types  by  aerial 
photographic  interpretation  to  detailed  analyses  of  specific  communities  and 
habitats.  Through  field  surveys  supplemented  with  professional  evaluation,  JMCA 
is  able  to  assess  the  significance  of  communities  and  habitats,  whether  of  scientific, 
economic,  recreational,  or  aesthetic  interest.  Community  stability  and  sensitivity  to 
impact  may  predict  the  response  of  either  a  plant  or  animal  community  to  potential 
environmental  changes.  This  evaluation  of  a  variety  of  resources,  whether  a  wetland 
or  the  habitat  of  an  endangered  species,  is  within  the  scope  of  JMCA's  services  and 
has  formed  the  basis  for  land  use  decision  making  by  both  private  developers  and 
public  regulatory  agencies.  JMCA  has  developed  resource  management  plans  to 
enhance  the  value  of  a  parcel  for  a  desired  use.  The  firm  also  offers  expertise  in  the 
design  of  mitigative  plans,  including  the  creation  of  replacement  communities  or 
habitats,  as  compensation  for  an  area  affected  by  a  project. 


JASON  M.CORTELL 

AND  ASSOCIATES  INC. 


LABORATORY  AND  ANALYTICAL  EQUIPMENT 


JASON  M,  CORTELL  and  ASSOCIATES  INC.  provides  extensive  services  to 
clients  in  field  monitoring,  and  laboratory  analyses.  Each  monitoring  effort  relies 
on  instrumentation,  techniques,  and  quality  assurance  programs  that  meet  or 
exceed  Federal  and  state  requirements. 


Water  Quality 
Laboratory 


The  JMCA  Water  Quality  Laboratory  provides  complete  analyses  to  support  a 
wide  variety  of  project  types.  Studies  include  both  marine  and  fresh  water, 
potable  water  supplies,  storm  water,  industrial  and  wastewater  treatment  plant 
effluents,  and  soils.  Each  item  of  laboratory  equipment  is  maintained  and  cali- 
brated according  to  manufacturer  specifications  or  Federal  and  State  Quality 
Assurance  Guidelines,  whichever  is  more  stringent.  Additionally,  all  samples  are 
subject  to  strict  chain  of  custody  procedures  from  the  moment  of  sampling  until 
final  disposition.  Approximately  10  percent  of  all  samples  passing  through  the 
laboratory  are  blind  quality  assurance  samples  of  known  composition  or  relabled 
duplicates  of  regular  samples.  Both  the  accuracy  and  precision  of  the  instruments, 
techniques,  and  laboratory  personnel  are  thus  continuously  monitored. 


Field 
Monitoring 


JMCA  offers  field  monitoring  services  for  selected  water  quality  parameters 
using  a  self-contained  water  quality  measuring  device.  Surface  water  quality  is 
determined  through  a  variety  of  parameters  such  as  hydrogen  ion  concentration, 
temperature,  dissolved  oxygen,  specific  conductance,  chloride  concentrations, 
and  others.  Through  the  field  monitoring  program,  compliance  with  Federal 
and  State  Water  Quality  Standards  may  be  determined. 


Analytical 
Techniques 


Because  of  frequent  involvement  in  Environmental  Impact  Statement  studies, 
JMCA  maintains  a  full  library  of  computer  programs  for  data  reduction  and 
analysis,  air  quality  and  noise  models,  water  resource  models,  and  job  control. 
In  addition,  JMCA  offers  custom  model  development  and  software  for  special 
applications  in  environmental  data  processing  and  modeling.  All  computer  work 
utilizes  the  ADP  network  of  DEC-10  computers.  In-house  terminals  and  inter- 
active software  make  efficient  use  of  this  resource  on  a  daily  basis. 


Noise 
Monitoring 


Ambient  noise  monitoring  is  a  significant  component  of  JMCA'sstudieson  diverse 
projects,  from  major  transportation  studies  to  the  siting  of  cooling  towers.  These 
include  a  Bruel  and  Kjaer  Model  166  Environmental  Noise  Classifier  (for  deter- 
mining compliance  with  OSHA,  HUD,  FHWA,  State,  and  local  noise  exposure 
regulations)  and  a  Model  No.  1945  Gen  Rad  Community  Noise  Classifier,  which 
provides  state-of-the-art  monitoring  capabilities  and  automatic  L^jp  calculations. 
Both  devices  meet  ANSI  Type  2  Sound  Level  Meter  Specifications  and  provide 
data  acceptable  to  all  regulatory  agencies.  In  addition,  special  equipment  is 
available  for  vibration  assessment,  octave  band  analysis,  and  precision  tape  re- 
cording of  noise  signals.  This  provides  flexioility  m  noise  monitoring  capabilities 
sufficient  to  meet  any  monitoring  requirement. 


Air  Quality 
Monitoring 


JMCA  provides  full  ambient  air  quality  monitoring  to  support  environmental 
impact  statements  and  special  purpose  studies.  Carbon  monoxide  (CO)  is  the 
focus  of  the  monitoring  capability  because  of  traffic-related  air  quality  standards 
which  have  been  set  by  both  federal  and  state  agencies.  CO  also  forms  the  basis 
for  most  studies  of  local  air  quality  effects.  In  order  to  interpret  carbon  monox- 
ide monitoring  data  accurately,  JMCA  maintains  a  concurrent  full  range  of 
meteorological  monitoring  services.  All  devices,  maintenance  procedures,  and 
quality  assurance  programs  conform  with   Federal   Environmental  Protection 
Agency  Guidelines. 

In-house  carbon  monoxide  equipment  consists  of  the  Beckman  Model  866  Non- 
Dispersive  Infra-Red  (NDIR)  CO  Monitors  equipped  with  Auto  Span  Modules 
and  Houston  Instruments  Omniscribe  Recorders.  These  are  Federal  Reference 
Method  devices  for  ambient  carbon  monoxide  monitoring.  Meteorological  data 
are  gathered  with  a  Climatronics  Windmark  III  Wind  Speed  and  Direction  Monitor 
and  a  Climatronics  Electronic  Weather  Station.  The  Weather  Station  measures  and 
records  wind  speed,  wind  direction,  solar  radiation,  temperature,  relative  humidity, 
and  precipitation.  Both  Climatronics  devices  have  integral  recorders  and  are 
suitable  for  both  regional  and  micrometeorological  measurements. 

In  addition  to  capabilities  in  CO  and  meteorological  monitoring,  JMCA  also 
monitors  nitrogen  oxide,  sulfur  dioxide,  hydrocarbons,  and  particulate  levels. 
JMCA  field  personnel  install,  maintain,  and  service  the  instruments  to  ensure  a 
uniform  level  of  quality.  JMCA  offers  clients  a  full  range  of  monitoring  services 
which  are  tailored  to  each  specific  job.

I  would  like  to  take  this  opportunity  to  share  some  of  my  perceptions  of  Economics 
Research  Associates  (ERA),  which  became  wholly  owned  by  its  senior  manage- 
ment in  1981    Dunng  the  last  twenty-four  years,  ERA  has  experienced  significant 
growth  and  diversification  in  response  to  the  increasingly  complex  and  demanding 
needs  of  our  public,  private,  and  international  clients.  As  a  result,  ERA  has 
emerged  as  one  of  the  largest  consulting  firms  in  the  United  States  and  has  a 
rapidly  expanding  international  practice.  We  have  six  offices  in  key  geographical 
areas  and  our  professional  staff  averages  more  than  ten  years  of  consulting  expen- 
ence.  Virtually  every  senior  professional  has  developed  an  in-depth  capability  in  a 
specialized  field  while  maintaining  a  high  competency  in  the  broad  spectrum  of 
ERA'S  services. 

We  at  ERA  are  dedicated  to  providing  the  highest  level  of  creative,  personal, 
and  pragmatic  services  to  our  clients.  This  dedication  to  quality  and  our  extensive 
expenence  underlies  our  histoncal  success  and  enthusiastic  optimism  for  the 
1980s. 

Finally,  I  would  like  to  express  my  appreciation  to  all  of  the  good  friends  of  ERA, 
and  on  behalf  of  our  professional  staff,  assure  you  of  our  continuing  dedication  to 
your  special  needs. 


Sincerely,

Public  Agencies 


During  the  past  decade,  thie  nation's  percep- 
tion of  its  domestic  priorities  has  shifted  dra- 
matically The  focus  of  the  seventies  on  the 
social  and  physical  problems  of  the  cities  has 
been  broadened  to  include  the  quality  of  the 
environment,  the  availability  of  energy,  the 
consequences  of  continued  physical  and  eco- 
nomic growth  in  an  era  of  financial  limitations 
and  the  impact  of  inflation. 

Government  at  all  levels  has  been  forced  to 
take  a  new  look  at  the  services  it  provides,  their 
impact  and  cost  effectiveness  and  the  need  to 
develop  alternative  revenue  sources.  More  than 
ever  before,  government  officials  must 
approach  these  decisions  with  a  full  under- 
standing of  the  economic  consequences  of 
alternatives 

As  adviser  to  governments  and  public- 
purpose  corporations.  ERA  provides  the  tech- 
nical analysis  necessary  to  enable  clients  to

Economic  Action  Plans 

Local  and  state  governments  will  face  com- 
plex economic  pressures  during  the  1980s, 
Ttiese  include; 

•  Economic  adjustment  to  plant  closings 

•  Planning  for  future  economic  development 

•  Improving  commercial  and  industrial  tax 
base  to  meet  local  needs 

•  Redevelopment  of  urban  areas 

•  Declining  industrial  and  commercial  climate 

ERA  has  assisted  clients  in  developing  prac- 
tical and  implementable  economic  action  plans 
to  meet  these  problems  Work  tasks  have 
included; 

•  Economic  base  and  input/output  analysis 

•  Market  surveys  of  trends  and  prospects  for 
industrial  and  commercial  development 

•  Financial  feasibility  analyses  for  business 
and  government  facilities

•  Identification  of  funding  sources  from  federal 
assistance  programs  and  the  private  sector

or  commercial  outlets 

ERA'S  recent  economic  projects  have  in- 
cluded; an  economic  adjustment  strategy  for 
San  Joaquin  County,  California;  for  the  Bridge- 
water  (New  Jersey)  Township  Redevelopment 
Agency,  ERA  developed  the  implementation 
strategies  for  the  development  of  a  retail,  office 
and  hotel  complex,  including  the  selection  of  a 
developer:  in  Sioux  City,  Iowa,  ERA  developed 
an  economic  adjustment  study  for  the  down- 
town area,  and  in  Colorado  Springs,  ERA 
planned  the  economic  revitalization  of  the 
Tejon  Mall 

Other  similar  ERA  projects  include  work  for 
the  communities  of  Grand  Rapids,  Michigan: 
Brevard  County,  Florida:  Areata,  California: 
Wilmington,  Delaware;  and  the  County  of  Los 
Angeles  Redevelopment  Agency. 

Community  Revitalization  and 
Urban  Development 

ERA'S  community  revitalization  studies  have 


included;  a  sustained  working  relationship  with 
the  Philadelphia  Redevelopment  Authority  and 
the  success  of  that  city's  Market  Street  East 
project  In  Seattle,  ERA  was  involved  in  the 
preservation  and  rehabilitation  of  several  hun- 
dred units  of  low-cost  housing,  an  irreplaceable 
resource  for  that  city's  low-income  minority 
population 

With  the  passage  of  property  tax  limitation 
measures  in  several  states,  which  reduced  the 
effectiveness  of  tax  increment  financing  of  re- 
development projects,  ERA  is  assisting  many 
communities  with  the  formation  of  local  im- 
provement districts  and  special  parking 
assessment  districts  to  enhance  downtown 
vitality 

ERA'S  recent  central  city  revitalization  work 
includes  Wichita,  Kansas;  Yuma,  Arizona: 
Miami  Beach,  Florida:  Westfield  and  Medford, 
Massachusetts:  Atlantic  City,  New  Jersey:  New 
York  City,  New  York;  Washington,  DC  ;  and

Adaptive  Use/ Historic  Preservation 

ERA  IS  a  leading  firm  in  the  economic  and 
financial  analysis  of  thie  adaptive  use  of  historic 
structures  and  areas  Successful  adaptive  use 
projects  naturally  extend  the  economic  life  of 
historic  buildings  and  bring  new  life  to  often 
decaying  inner  cities  ERA  has  performed 
adaptive  use  and  historic  preservation  work  in 
Boston  (Faneuil  Hall  Market  Place).  Providence 
(The  Arcade  Building),  Chicago  (Historic  Pull- 
man Area),  Lowell,  Massachusetts  (Lowell 
National  Cultural  Park),  and  Virginia,  Minnesota 
(Oldtown-Finntown)  Members  of  the  firm  re- 
cently coauthored  a  book  titled  Adaptive  Use: 
Development  Economics  Process  and  Profiles 
with  the  Urban  Land  Institute 

Economic/Fiscal  Planning 

The  pressure  for  increasing  efficiency  in  gov- 
ernment IS  contributing  to  a  growing  demand 
for  economic  and  fiscal  evaluation  of  public 
policies,  programs  and  projects  In  the  series 
of  studies  for  the  Boston  Redevelopment  Au- 
thority, ERA  evaluated  the  economic  impact  of 
the  Boston  Naval  Shipyard  and  the  Copley 
Place  Redevelopment  Project,  The  State  of 
California  retained  ERA  to  examine  the  eco- 
nomic impact  of  the  federal  decision  not  to  pro- 
duce the  B-1  bomber  In  a  major  study  for  the 
City  of  St  Louis,  ERA  analyzed  the  eco- 
nomic/fiscal impacts  of  a  historic  preservation 
on  the  city's  central  business  district  ERA  also 
evaluated  the  economic  effects  expected  from 


adoption  of  the  proposed  California  Coastal 
Zone  Plan  for  the  Joint  Rules  Committee  of  the 
California  Legislature.  Other  recent  economic 
impact  studies  include  the  impact  of  gaming 
for  Atlantic  City,  New  Jersey,  a  cost/revenue 
model  to  evaluate  suburban  growth  for  the 
Denver  Regional  Council  of  Governments,  and 
in  Southern  California,  ERA  has  recently  ex- 
amined the  fiscal  implications  of  creating  two 
new  counties 

In  response  to  changing  demographics  and 
use  patterns,  cities,  school  districts  and  others 
have  turned  to  ERA  to  assist  in  the  analysis  of 
surplus  lands.  The  studies  have  included  deter- 
mining the  highest  and  best  use  as  well  as  dis- 
position or  development  strategy, 

ERA  also  has  evaluated  user  fees  and 
charges,  concessionaire  pricing  levels  and 
service  delivery  standards.

Transportation 

ERA  offers  a  wide  range  of  services  to  trans^ 
portation  agencies,  very  often  in  concert  witti 
transportation  planners  and  engineers  Assign- 
ments fiave  included  evaluating  thie  economic 
impact  of  all  port  operations  and  aviation  facili- 
ties for  {he  Port  of  Portland:  analysis  of  trans- 
portation system  financing  alternatives  for  re- 
sort communities  such  as  Aspen,  Colorado,

Angeles  Department  of  Airports,  Port  of  Port- 
land, Maryland  State  Aviation  Administration 
and  the  Texas  Aeronautics  Commission  For 
both  the  U  S.  Department  of  Transportation  and 
the  National  Science  Foundation,  ERA  devel- 
oped national  guidelines  for  the  socioeconomic 
analysis  of  various  transportation  modes 

For  recreation  areas,  ERA  analyzed  transit 
markets  and  developed  information  systems  for 
the  New  England  Regional  Commission  and 
the  Golden  Gate  National  Recreation  Area. 
ERA  also  prepared  design  recommendations 
for  some  of  the  earliest  and  most  successful 
shuttle  bus  services,  including  the  systems  at 
Yosemite  and  Grand  Canyon  National  Parks 

Transit  station  or  transportation  terminal- 
related  land  development,  often  via  joint-use 
agreements  between  public  and  private  en- 
tities, IS  another  area  of  ERA  concentration  The 
firm  recently  examined  BART  station-related 
urban  development  as  well  as  |oint-use  office 
development  in  conjunction  with  reconstruction 
of  the  San  Francisco-Oakland  Trans  Bay  Ter- 
minal for  the  Trans  Bay  Terminal  Authority. 

ERA  transportation  clients  have  included:

of  Transportation:  Bridgeport.  Connecticut, 
Transit  District:  the  State  of  Missouri:  Lincoln, 
Nebraska:  and  the  Niagara  Frontier  Transporta- 
tion Authority. 


Planning  Alternatives  Evaluation 

ERA  very  often  participates  on  a  multi- 
disciplinary  team  of  planners  to  evaluate  major 
planning  or  public  investment  alternatives 
zoning  and  density  changes,  new  community 
planning,  and  alternative  revenue/resource 
programming   In  Burlington,  Vermont,  ERA 
conducted  a  market  and  economic  impact 
justification  analysis  necessary  for  the  imple- 
mentation of  a  commercial  revitalization  plan 
for  the  downtown  area  For  the  Santa  Clara 
Valley  Corridor  Study,  ERA  evaluated  the  eco- 
nomic and  fiscal  impacts  of  eight  different 
transportation  and  planning  alternatives  Trans- 
portation systems  considered  included  bus 
emphasis,  highway  emphasis  and  light  rail  de- 
velopment. Planning  alternatives  considered  in- 
cluded compact  versus  dispersed  growth  and 
varying  infrastructure  capacities  The  study 
was  performed  for  the  San  Francisco  Bay  Area 
Metropolitan  Transportation  Commission  (MTC) 
and  the  Association  of  Bay  Area  Governments 
(ABAC)  ERA  also  has  provided  economic  in- 
put to  the  general  master  plan  programs  in  the 
Lake  Tahoe  area  ERA  clients  have  included: 
the  Massachusetts  Office  of  Community  Devel- 
opment: the  City  of  Houston,  Texas:  and  the 
State  of  Maine.

ERA  IS  thoroughly  experienced  in  the  analy- 
sis of  public  facilities,  including  conference  and 
convention  centers,  urban  parks  and  recreation 
areas,  museums,  zoos,  performing  arts  cen- 
ters, stadiums,  arenas,  and  multi-use  facilities 
Types  of  analyses  include  facilities  needs- 
assessment,  attendance  forecasting,  financial 
evaluation,  funding  plans,  management  and 
operations  evaluation,  public  presentations  and 
architect  selection  These  public  facilities  are 
excellent  catalysts  for  generating  urban  vitality 
and  are  often  analyzed  in  conjunction  with 
multi-use  developments  or  area  revitalization 
plans  Recent  ERA  studies  include  expansion 
and  relocation  analysis  of  the  Seattle  Art 
Museum,  feasibility  evaluation  of  a  cultural  arts 
center  in  Las  Vegas,  management  plan  for  the 
New  Orleans  Superdome,  and  market  and  op- 
erations analysis  for  the  Lexington,  Kentucky. 
Convention  Center,  In  Eugene.  Oregon,  the  de- 
tailed ERA  analysis  facilitated  passage  of  an 
$18  6  million  general  obligation  bond  commit- 
ment for  construction  of  a  community/cultural 
center.  ERA  has  recently  conducted  financial 
feasibility  studies  for  such  communities  as;

Medford,  Oregon;  Phoenix,  Arizona;  Tacoma, 
Washington;  Salem,  Oregon;  Lansing, 
tvlichigan;  Boston,  Massachusetts;  Nassau 
County  (Long  Island),  New  York;  Daytona

Implementation 

ERA  assists  public  agencies  with  project  im- 
plementation These  services  include  solicita- 
tion, evaluation  and  selection  of  developers,  re- 
commending financing  mechanisms  and  con- 
ducting project  performance  audits.  In  1975, 
ERA  was  requested  by  the  US  Department  of 
Housing  and  Urban  Development  to  develop  a 
plan  to  salvage  the  financially  troubled  new 
community  of  Jonathan.  Minnesota  The  firm 
undertook  a  performance  audit  and  then  formu- 
lated seven  implementation  strategies.  Subse- 
quently, HUD  secured  a  commitment  from  a 
new  developer  on  terms  consistent  with  ERA 


recommendations  In  Bridgewater,  New  Jersey, 
ERA  selected  and  negotiated  with  potential  de- 
velopers of  a  major  regional  shopping  center 
In  New  York,  ERA  has  provided  ongoing  con- 
sultation services  for  the  42nd  Street  Rede- 
velopment Corporation  ERA  also  has  had  an 
ongoing  contract  with  the  San  Francisco  Rede- 
velopment Agency

Animal/People  Environments 

Animal/People  Environments  (APE)  is  a  divi- 
sion of  ERA  which  provides  a  wide  range  of 
services  to  zoos,  aquariums,  oceanariums  and

The  key  motivating  force  behind  APE  is  the 
commitment  to  the  preservation  of  both  animal 
and  people  environments  in  their  most  optimum 
state.  Fundamentally,  APE  believes: 

•  Zoos  should  be  designed  and  operated  to 
optimize  their  educational,  environmental, 
and  entertainment  character 

•  A  primary  commitment  must  be  made  to 
ecological  survival  in  general,  and  animal 
survival  in  particular 

•  Zoos  are  vital  elements  in  the  conservation 
effort.  As  such,  zoos  must  win  their  own  bat- 
tle for  survival 

•  Economic  and  financial  viability  is  the  key 
operational  objective 

•  Each  zoo  can  reach  its  potential  only  if  it  rec- 
ognizes its  unique  role  and  acts  on  it 

•  Proper  design  and  maintenance  of  living  col- 
lections are  imperative  to  zoo  survival 

A  comprehensive  scope  of  professional  ser- 
vices offered  through  APE  include: 

•  Administrative  and  operational  audits

THE  fTlDDEL 


THE  CHANGING  STATE  OF  REAL  ESTATE 
DEVELOPMENT 

In  today's  rapidly  changing  economic  environment,  it  is 
becoming  more  and  more  apparent  that  successful  real  estate 
planning,  development,  and  management  require  access  to 
the  best  decision-making  tools.  Inflation,  fluctuating  interest 
rates,  land  use  controls,  rapidly  escalating  development  costs 
and  the  complexity  of  forecasting  realistic  financial  pro  formas 
all  contribute  to  the  difficult  task  of  meeting  land  development 
objectives.  The  successful  developer/investor  can  best  attain 
project  objectives  through  the  combined  technical 
resources  of  experienced  real  estate  professionals  and  ad- 
vanced computer  technology. 

THE  LAND  DEVELOPMENT  MODEL  (LDM) 

The  Land  Development  Model,  developed  by  Project 
Economics  Inc.  and  generally  referred  to  as  the  LDM,  vi/as 
designed  to  enable  a  wide  variety  of  clients  to  comprehensively 
assess  their  various  real  estate  projects  in  a  cost-effective  and 
timely  manner. 

The  LDM  is  set  up  primarily  for  economic,  financial  and 
planning  analysis  of  single  and  multi-use  real  estate 
development  projects  involving  both  marketable  and  income 
producing  properties.  The  basic  function  of  the  LDM  is  to  assist 
ERA  real  estate  specialists  and  other  project  team  members 
in  evaluating  the  probable  levels  of  profit  for  each  land  use 
element  within  a  limitless  number  of  development  senarios.  To 
optimize  the  potential  land  use  profits,  the  LDM  breaks  down 
project  input  into  three  basic  components:  marketable  land 
uses;  operational  land  uses;  and  overhead  land  uses. 
Typically,  the  model  is  used  to  analyze  and  produce  computer- 
ized reports  on  the  following  types  of  existing  and/or 
proposed  projects: 

•  new  towns    •   mixed  use  developments 

•  planned  communities    •  recreational  land  developments 

•  residential  and  retirement  communities   •   industrial  parks 

•  office  buildings    •  apartment  complexes 

•  shopping  centers     •   resort  and  hotel  developments 

•  recreational  land  developments 

BENEFITS  OF  USING  LDM 

Use  of  the  LDM  provides  a  number  of  project  specific 
benefits  when  compared  with  other  computer  models  and  more 
conventional  manual  approaches.  These  benefits  include: 

Incorporates  Data  From  Each  Project  Team  Member 

Throughout  the  years,  hundreds  of  clients  have  benefited 
from  the  ability  of  the  LDM  to  provide  the  data  necessary 
to  produce  an  optimal  development  plan.  The  LDM 
model  has  also  been  designed  to  incorporate  key  development 
information  from  each  member  of  the  project  team  -  owner/ 
developer,  planner,  engineer,  economist,  investor,  marketer, 
financial  analyst  and  real  estate  consultant  -  into  a 
comprehensive  land  use  plan  which  statistifies  all  of  the 
requirements  of  the  various  disciplines. 

Provides  Comparative  Analysis  For  Each  Land 
Use  Component 

Comprehensive  profitability  and  cash  flow  analysis  are 


provided  for  each  land  use  element  for  each  designated  group 
of  land  use  elements,  as  well  as  a  summary  analysis  for  the  entire 
project.  With  this  unique  capability,  the  project  team  can 
evaluate  and  refine  the  land  use  plan  by  element  to  arrive  at  a 
final  land  use  plan  which  maximizes  the  overall  project 
development  potential. 

Fast  Answers 

The  LDM  operates  in  a  computer  finishing  environment 
where  results  of  an  analysis  are  available  within  minutes.  This 
unique  feature  enables  clients  to  receive  immediate  answers  to 
often  complex  questions.  In  addition,  ERA's  real  estate  specialists 
are  located  in  key  regional  offices  throughout  the  country . . .  within 
easy  reach  by  telephone,  telex  or  other  telecommunications 
vehicles. 

Easy  To  Use  And  Understand 

Knowledge  and  experience  with  computers  are  not 
required  to  effectively  use  or  understand  the  LDM.  After  a  brief 
orientation,  project  team  members  and  their  support  staffs 
discover  the  ease  in  preparing  input  data  and  the  straight- 
forward approach  used  to  present  each  analysis. 

Customized  Reports 

The  LDM  is  structured  such  that  the  model  can  be  adapted 
or  modified  to  handle  an  unconventional  treatment  of  taxes, 
special  types  of  financing,  or  other  costs  or  revenue  calculations. 
The  model  is  designed  to  respond  to  each  land  use  analysis 
in  a  specific  rather  than  general  manner. 

Capability  To  Conduct  Fiscal  Impact  Analyses 

Analysis  of  a  project's  fiscal  and  environmental  impact  is 
an  increasingly  important  concern  to  developers  and  community 
leaders.  Computer  models  developed  for  fiscal  impact  analysis 
require  much  of  the  same  input  as  are  used  in  the  financial 
analysis  of  the  project.  Recognizing  this,  the  LDM  is  structured  to 
prepare  a  fiscal  impact  analysis  with  only  a  marginal  amount  of 
input.  Furthermore,  once  the  base  model  is  created,  any 
modifications  to  the  land  development  analysis  will 
automatically  render  corresponding  data  on  the  fiscal  impact  of 
that  modification. 

ACCESS  TO  THE  LDM 

The  Land  Development  Model  runs  on  the  nationwide 
Information  Systems  Design  (ISD)  data  processing  network 
using  the  TYMNET  wortdwide  communications  system.  ISD's 
processing  services  provide  the  economy  of  large-scale 
computer  technology  to  customers  linked  by  remote  terminals 
to  TYMNETS  wortdwide  computer  network. 

Users  can  utilize  the  models  through  low-speed  or  high- 
speed terminals  located  in  their  offices,  or  alternatively,  ERA  can 
run  the  model  at  its  own  facilities  with  input  supplied  by  the 
client.  Output  can  be  directed  to  the  user's  low-speed  or  high- 
speed terminal,  or  the  high-speed  printer  at  an  ISD  office.  A 
unique  feature  of  this  model  enables  the  use  of  any  input-output 
combination.  For  example,  data  could  be  input  at  a  low-speed 
office  terminal  in  Denver,  processed  at  ISD's  Santa  Clara 
Computer  Center,  and  output  printed  at  a  high-speed  printer 
located  in  ERA'S  Los  Angeles  office.

THE  ECONOMIC  IMPACT  MODEL  (EIM) 

The  Economic  Impact  Model  (EIM)  provides  analysis 
for  the  economic  impact  of  existing  or  proposed  land  develop- 
ments and  land  based  activities  upon  jobs,  housing  and  other 
specific  local,  regional  or  statewide  economic  sectors.  The  EIM 
can  project  impact  assessments  for  any  period  of  the  proposed 
development;  from  the  construction  through  the  completion  and 
operational  phases.  One  unique  feature  of  the  EIM  is  its  ability  to 
assess  direct  economic  impacts  for  a  specific  geographic 
location.

THE  RETAIL  MODEL  (RM) 

ERA  has  developed  a  Retail  Model  (RM)  which  serves  as  a 
financial  planning  tool  for  retailers  by  providing  specific  sales 
analyses  and  projections  for  proposed  retail  developments. 

Based  on  a  user-defined  trade  area,  geographic,  and 
demographic  statistics,  the  RM  can  estimate  sales  for  one  or  a 
variety  of  establishments.  The  RM's  most  significant  attribute  is 
Its  ability  to  provide  sales  estimates  based  on  establishments, 
rather  than  on  type  of  goods  although  many  of  the  clients  who 
have  used  the  RM  include  shopping  center  developers  and 
retail  merchants.  The  RM  model  has  been  used  extensively  by 
public  agencies  for  a  variety  of  business  district  revitalization 
proiects.

THE  FINANCIAL  ANALYSIS  MODEL  (FAM) 

The  principal  use  of  the  Financial  Analysis  Model  (FAM)  is 
for  corporate  planning,  development  of  long-  and  short-term 
financial  projections,  determination  of  proiect  feasibility  and 
evaluating  investment  alternatives.  The  FAM  is  capable  of 
analyzing  broad  policy  issues  within  the  public  sector  with 
respect  to  the  impact  of  major  policy  decisions  upon  community 
growth  patterns  and  is  used  to  evaluate  growth  variables  and 
their  impact  upon  revenues  and  expenditures. 

ADDITIONAL  CAPABILITIES 

ERA'S  on-line  computers  have  access  to  a  variety  of 
population,  retail  and  other  computerized  data  banks  which 
provide  current  information  for  use  in  land  use  analyses.  As  a 
subsidiary  of  the  Planning  Research  Corporation,  ERA  has  the 
ability  to  incorporate  the  sophisticated  computer  technology  of 
one  of  the  world's  largest  computer  intensive  corporations  into 
each  project  analysis.  In  addition,  many  of  ERA'S  professionals 
are  experienced  computer  programmers  and,  as  a  result,  can 
design  a  computer-based  model  for  application  in  nearly  all 
protect  situations.

neering analysis,  advanced  development,  and  the 
application  of  state-of-the-art  control  technigues. 

Historically,  the  nucleus  of  these  services  was 
acoustics  and  noise  control  As  we  became  involved 
in  solving  industrial  and  environmental  noise  problems, 
we  began  to  expand  our  technical  capabilities  to  pro- 
vide a  more  complete  problem-solving  service.  Built 
upon  our  strong  foundation  of  technical  excellence  in 
acoustics,  our  services  today  include  capabilities  in 
environmental  science  and  engineering,  industrial 
hygiene,  economics,  wind  studies,  energy  conserva- 
tion, and  other  related  technical  specialties 
Noise  and  Vibration  Control 
BBN  solves  noise  and  vibration  problems  for  govern- 
ment agencies,  utility  companies,  manufacturers,  and 
industrial  organizations  We  provide  measurement  and 
analysis  services  and  design  technigues  for  controlling 
noise  and  vibration  For  proposed  new  facilities,  we 
Identify  potential  problem  sources,  design  treatments  to 
meet  acceptable  noise  and  vibration  criteria,  and  offer 
engineering  supervision  to  ensure  that  recommended 
control  measures  are  properly  carried  out  and  that 
specified  criteria  are  satisfied 

An  example  of  our  comprehensive  noise  control 
capabilities  is  a  recent  contract  with  the  U  S  Bureau  of 
Mines  BBN  developed  and  demonstrated  retrofit  noise 
control  treatments  that  significantly  reduce  the  noise 
exposure  of  bulldozer  operators  engaged  in  surface 
mining  These  treatments  were  specifically  designed  to 
be  readily  constructed  and  installed  in  the  field  at  low 
cost.  To  transfer  this  technology  to  the  mining  com- 
munity, BBN  conducted  a  series  of  seminars  and 
workshops  in  50  cities  around  the  country 

Manufacturers  rely  on  BBN's  noise  control  expertise 
in  the  design  of  guieter  products  and  eguipment  Our 
services  have  been  used,  with  excellent  results,  to 
reduce  noise  from  trucks,  heavy  machinery,  and 
consumer  household  items 
Environmental  Science  and  Engineering 
Communities  near  airports,  highways,  rail  lines,  or 
industrial  facilities  often  face  combined  noise  and 
air  quality  problems  We  help  companies  and  trans- 
portation authorities  reduce  the  impact  of  their  op- 
erations on  nearby  communities  Working  with 
community  officials,  we  assist  in  the  development 
of  codes  and  ordinances  for  the  enforcement  of 
environmental  regulations

work  environment 


Illustrating  BBN's  environmental  activities  is  our  work 
for  New  York's  West  Side  Highway  Project  More  than 
forty  BBN  consultants  were  involved  in  preparing  the 
noise  portion  of  the  Environmental  Impact  Statement, 
in  conducting  engineering  studies  of  noise  barriers  and 
acoustical  absorption  in  covered  sections,  in  muffling 
large  ventilation  fans,  and  in  controlling  construc- 
tion noise 

We  develop  environmental  impact  statements  for 
proposed  new  construction  projects,  and  BBN  planners 
work  to  minimize  undesirable  side  effects,  both  during 
and  after  construction  In  addition  to  analyzing  effects 
on  the  physical  environment,  we  evaluate  land  use 
and  sociological  and  economic  impacts  We  provide 
expert  testimony  in  environmental  matters  and  serve 
as  consultants  to  commercial  organizations,  as  well  as 
to  federal,  state,  and  municipal  authorities 

BBN  was  recently  selected  to  study  the  air  guality, 
noise,  and  vibration  impacts  associated  with  Boston's 
proposed  Third  Harbor  Tunnel  project  The  study  is 
part  of  a  joint  federal  and  state  environmental  impact 
review  process 
Industrial  Hygiene 

BBN  offers  comprehensive  ser\'ices  in  the  measure- 
ment and  assessment  of  occupational  health  condi- 
tions We  also  design  and  supervise  the  installation

uates the  economic  consequences  of  alternative 
approaches  Our  areas  of  specialization  include  eco- 
nomic analyses  in  fields  of  noise  and  pollution  control, 
product  development,  transportation,  and  energy 
Wind  Engineering 

BBN  conducts  analytical  and  experimental  studies  of 
wind  effects  on  buildings.  Using  physical  models  and 
special  wind  tunnel  facilities,  we  determine  how  new 
buildings  will  affect  wind  patterns  and  pedestrians  at 
street  level 


BBN  was  chosen  to  study  and  predict  the  effects 
of  wind  on  Boston's  Copley  Place,  the  largest  com- 
mercial development  project  in  the  city's  history.  BBN 
IS  performing  wind-tunnel  tests  to  analyze  wind  loads 
on  structures,  wind  impacts  on  pedestrians,  and  air 
pollution  dispersion  from  tunnel  and  garage  venti- 
lating systems 

Failure  and  Accident  Analyses 
BBN  performs  failure  analyses  at  all  stages  of  a  sys- 
tem's development  and  life  cycle  We  measure  and 
predict  mechanical,  acoustic,  and  aerodynamic  loads 
on  a  system,  as  well  as  its  stress,  strain,  and  wear 
response  An  assessment  is  made  of  likelihood  of 
failure  from  fatigue,  level  exceedance,  or  other 
mechanisms  If  a  system  has  already  failed,  BBN 
assesses  the  cause  of  failure  and  recommends  design 
or  operating  improvements  to  avoid  future  failures  of 
similar  systems 

Accident  analyses,  involving  mechanical  system 
dynamics  and  human  factors,  are  performed  Py 
multidisciplinary  teams  of  engineers  and  behavioral 
psychologists  These  analyses  typically  involve  motor 
vehicles,  consumer  and  industrial  products,  or  indus- 
trial equipment  and  environments 

In  serving  a  wide  variety  of  clients  in  the  legal  and 
technical  areas,  BBN  has  consulted  on  numerous 
cases,  including 

>  Collapse  of  a  construction  crane  boom 

>  Cave-in  of  a  shopping  mall  roof  loaded  with  snow 

>  Effectiveness  of  an  automobile  door  frame  in 
a  collision

Community  Noise 


The  measurement,  assessment,  and 
control  of  noise  in  communities  calls 
for  a  variety  of  acoustical  skills  and 
experience.  BBN  combines  all  the 
necessary  technical  disciplines  to 
assist  industry  and  communities  with 
the  following  activities: 

Measurement  of  Noise 

From  brief  field  measurements  of  the 
sound  level  at  a  single  position  to  large 
community  surveys  encompassing 
measurements  at  many  positions  for 
extended  periods,  BBN  provides  a  total 
capability.  Our  services  include  data 
acquisition,  processing,  and  interpreta- 
tion. BBN  maintains  instrumentation 
suitable  for  both  routine  and  special 
noise  measurements. 

Assessment  of  Noise 

As  a  vital  first  step  in  planning  effective 
noise  reduction,  BBN  evaluates  noise 
and  assesses  its  impact  on  people  and 
community  activities. 

Prediction  of  Noise 

BBN  has  been  responsible  for  the 
development  and  verification  of  many 
of  the  engineering  techniques  now 
widely  used  to  predict  noise,  both  for 
current  and  projected  community  condi- 
tions. Drawing  upon  our  expertise  in 
computer  programming,  we  have  created 
computer  programs  that  provide  a  ver- 
satile and  accurate  tool  for  predicting 
noise  from  traffic,  aircraft,  and  indus- 
trial plants.  In  addition  to  providing 
routine  noise  prediction  services,  we 
can  develop  new  predictive  methods  for 
special  or  unusual  situations. 

Development  of  Noise  Codes 
and  Ordinances 

BBN  works  with  state,  local,  and 
Federal  agencies  to  plan,  write,  and 
implement  practical  noise  ordinances. 
Planning  steps  may  involve  the  develop- 
ment of  noise  requirements  for  zoning 
ordinances,  noise  insulation  require- 
ments for  building  codes,  or  other  regu- 
lations for  specialized  Industrial  zones. 

Industry  Representation 

BBN  acts  on  behalf  of  industrial  and 
commercial  clients  in  responding  to 
requirements  of  local  governments  and 
national  regulatory  authorities.  In  par- 
ticular, we  prepare  responses  to  obtain 
permits  for  new  construction  or  expan- 
sion or  modification  of  existing  facilities. 


Noise  control  ot  power  plants  helps  them  to  be  good  neighbors  with  the  communities  they  serve 

When  noise  problems  arise,  BBN  acts 
on  behalf  of  companies  in  negotiations 
with  local  authorities  and  community 
organizations.  We  obtain  realistic  settle- 
ments of  community  noise  problems 
that  take  into  account  cost-effective 
state-of-the-art  engineering  controls  and 
human  response  to  annoying  conditions. 

Noise  Control  Design 

To  help  managers  reduce  noise  from 
their  facilities  and  to  avoid  community 
noise  complaints,  BBN  designs  and 
specifies  effective  noise  control  hard- 
ware. BBN's  noise  control  experience 
includes  work  for  managers  of  manu- 
facturing facilities,  power  plants,  refin- 
eries, testing  facilities,  construction 
sites,  airports,  mines,  waste  treatment 
plants,  and  engineering  and  architec- 
tural firms,  as  well  as  numerous  govern- 
ment agencies. 

Noise  Monitoring  Instrumentation 
and  Data  Processing 

For  short-  or  long-term  noise  monitoring, 
BBN  provides  instrumentation  recom- 
mendations and  develops  detailed  mea- 
surement procedures.  We  also  develop 
noise  monitoring  systems  for  airports 
or  special  industrial  facilities.  BBN's 
experience  includes  measurement  and 
data  analysis,  instrumentation  design, 
and  fabrication. 

Training 

To  train  people  in  the  assessment  and 
control  of  noise,  BBN  prepares  and 
presents  special  courses,  develops 
simplified  handbooks,  and  provides 
engineering  training  aids.

REPRESENTATIVE  PROJECTS 

Chicago  Urban  Noise  Study 

For  this  three-part  study,  which  led  to 
the  1971  Chicago  Comprehensive  Noise 
Ordinance,  BBN  reviewed  the  need  for 
noise  abatement,  recommended  the 
language  of  the  ordinance  as  well  as 
test  and  measurement  procedures,  and 
summarized  the  available  technology 
for  the  control  of  the  major  urban  noise 
sources.  A  brief  statement  prepared  by 
BBN  presented  the  recommendations 
for  action  to  implement  an  effective 
urban  noise  control  program. 

The  ordinance  sections  have  been 
widely  copied  by  other  cities  and 
states. 

Noise  Measurements  in  Communities 
of  Widely  Varying  Population  Density 

For  the  Environmental  Protection 
Agency,  BBN  undertook  24-hour  mea- 
surements of  the  outdoor  noise  environ- 
ment at  100  sites  in  14  urban  areas 
scattered  throughout  the  United  States. 
Acoustic  data  were  correlated  with 
population  density  to  develop  a  model 
for  estimating  community  noise  as  a 
function  of  population  density.  This 
noise  model,  together  with  information

eaasf^ 


For  nearly  two  decaaes.  b8N  has  worked  with 
state  agencies  to  develop  motor  vehicle  noise 
regulations,  for  even  longer,  we  have  predicted 
community  noise  exposure  from  highways 


concerning  the  exposure  near  freeways 
and  airports,  was  used  to  establish 
percentages  of  the  U.S.  population 
exposed  to  differing  levels  of  outdoor 
noise.  Portable  noise  monitoring  units, 
developed  by  BBN,  were  used  through- 
out the  measurement  program. 

Plant  Noise  Abatement 

For  an  electric  generating  station,  BBN 
evaluated  the  source  of  community 
noise  complaints,  specified  the  noise 
control  hardware,  and  assisted  in  its 
procurement.  BBN  assisted  the  station 
owner  during  meetings  with  the  com- 
munity and  local  regulatory  agencies, 
and  after  installation  of  the  hardware, 
we  evaluated  its  performance. 

Preparation  of  Noise  Element 
for  the  North  Los  Angeles  County 
General  Plan 

For  the  county  of  Los  Angeles,  BBN 
determined  the  current  noise  environ- 
ment and  evaluated  changes  in  the 
future  noise  environment  for  various 
planning  alternatives  for  the  North  Los 
Angeles  County  area.  These  alternatives 
included  the  development  of  a  new 
major  international  airport.  Noise  goals 
and  policies,  as  well  as  recommended 
land  use  policies,  were  developed  as 
part  of  the  Noise  Element  by  California 
State  Regulations. 

Analysis  of  Community  Noise 
and  a  Plan  for  Noise  Control 
for  the  City  of  Boston 

For  the  city  of  Boston,  BBN  estimated 
representative  noise  levels  in  the  city, 
identified  and  characterized  the  impor- 
tant noise  sources,  and  established 
criteria  for  judging  community  noise 
standards.  We  summarized  appropriate 
methods  of  noise  control,  compared 
different  approaches  for  reducing  noise, 
and  made  recommendations  for  an 
initial  regulatory  program. 

The  recommendations  included  (1)  zoning 
restrictions  on  land  use  noise  emis- 
sions; (2)  restrictions  of  construction- 
site  noise  emissions;  (3)  development 
of  noise  standards  acceptable  to  new 
vehicles  and  new  powered  outdoor 
equipment  for  sale  or  lease. 

Noise  Pollution  Legislation  Study 

For  the  Maryland  Department  of  Trans- 
portation, BBN  identified  both  legisla- 
tive and  administrative  actions  to 
combat  the  problems  of  transportation 
noise.  The  project  culminated  in  the 
passage  of  the  Maryland  Environmental 
Noise  Act  of  1974,  which  establishes 
mechanisms  for  principal  departments 
to  regulate  and  control  environmental 
noise  in  coordination  with  Federal 


activities  and  programs.  BBN's  support 
to  the  state  agencies  included  the 
development  of  both  airport  noise  regu- 
lations and  motor  vehicle  noise  regula- 
tions.

T/ie  benefits 
of  inventive 
and  effective 
management... 

Perini  management  has  pioneered 
in  the  construction,  mining  and 
real  estate  industries,  providing  so- 
lutions and  performance  beyond 
contract  obligations. 

Innovative  techniques,  rigid  cost 
controls,  definitive  scheduling  and 
a  productive,  competitive  work 
force  are  the  extra  benefits  Perini 
brings  to  every  project. 


Perini  Philosophy 


The  success  of  Perini  Corporation,  since  its 
beginning  as  a  small  civil  works  contractor  in 
1900,  is  largely  due  to  a  studied  management 
approach  to  the  supervision  and  direction  of 
each  project,  large  or  small.  Even  in  the  early 
years,  job  conditions  and  problems  were 
carefully  analyzed  and  the  management 
organization  was  structured  to  meet  contract 
commitments  and  produce  a  quality  project. 

A  skilled  and  productive  work  force,  coupled 
with  a  spirit  of  inventiveness,  has  enabled 
Perini  to  complete  some  of  the  world's  most 
difficult  and  sophisticated  projects  Many  of 
these  projects  required  Perini  personnel  to 
pioneer  new  technologies  that  were  later 
adopted  as  standards  for  the  construction 
industry 

Perim's  management  approach  and  inventive 
spirit  IS  more  effective  today  than  ever, 
supported  by  an  enlarged  staff  of  managers, 
engineers,  planners  and  schedulers  who  now 
use  computerized  systems  to  control  costs 
and  schedules. 

Much  of  Perim's  strength  lies  in  the 
experience  of  this  staff,  many  of  whom  have 
been  with  the  company  20  to  30  years 
or  more.  Throughout  the  organization, 
employees  are  accustomed  to  working 
closely  and  cooperatively  with  architects, 
engineers  and  owners  to  achieve  the  best 
project  value,  consistent  with  sound 
engineering  practices  and  budget  guidelines

operations  Inter-divisional  ventures  and 
corporate  staff  capability  provide  back-up 
strength  and  expertise  to  support  a  total 
proiect  concept 

Not  many  years  ago  a  contractor's  principal 
problem  was  putting  the  work  in  place  in  the 
face  of  weather  and  temperature  extremes, 
suspect  geology  uncertain  equipment 
efficiency  and  variable  labor  productivity 
These  problems  are  magnified  in  the  current 
economy  where  wage  rates,  material  and 
equipment  costs  escalate  almost  monthly  The 
scope,  complexity  and  cost  of  today's  projects 
demand  additional  services  designed  to 
maximize  the  owners'  value,  while 
compressing  the  programming,  planning, 
engineering  and  construction  tasks  into  the 
shortest  possible  time.

Perini  Building 


Office 


Perini  buildings  vary  in  size  from  snnall 
structures  to  large  skyscrapers.  Located 
ttiroughout  the  world  ttiey  cover  a  diversity  of 
uses.  -Office,  Health),  Educational, 
Commercial,  Residential  and  Special  Works 

Small  or  large,  eacfi  building  is  constructed 
witfi  Perim's  studied  management  approachi. 
Cost  evaluations  begin  early  in  tfie 
programming  or  planning  stages  and 
continue  throughout  the  design  development, 
construction  documents  and  construction 
stages- 
Owners  are  becoming  increasingly  aware 
that  lowest  first  costs  are  not  the  sole 
determinant  of  a  successful  project, 
especially  in  these  days  of  spiraling  energy 
and  operating  charges.  Perini  offers  value 
analysis  as  a  better  method  of  deciding 


where  an  owner's  funds  can  best  be  utilized. 

The  Boston  Federal  Reserve  Bank  required 
an  extra  measure  of  ingenuity  Built  in  the 
congested  waterfront  area  of  Boston,  site 
excavation  encountered  hundreds  of  old 
timber  piles  that  had  to  be  removed  while 
maintaining  the  water  level  at  +5  mean  sea 
level  through  extraction  and  recharging 
procedures,  in  order  to  preserve  timber 
pilings  supporting  adjacent  structures.  A 
grouted,  lagged  tie-wall  was  devised  to  open 
the  site  for  footing  installation  at  -15  to  -25 
mean  sea  level.  The  total  proiect  contained 
44,000  c  yof  concrete  and  18,000  tons  of 
structural  steel.

Health 

In  the  health  services  field,  the  building  is  an 
envelope  tor  the  housing  of  equipment, 
systems  and  personnel— all  designed  to 
provide  an  efficient,  pleasant  environment  for 
the  delivery  of  the  best  in  patient  care 

Changes  in  medical  technology  are  rapid. 
On  large  projects,  technology  changes 
during  a  protracted  traditional  design  and 
construction  period  have  often  made  new 
facilities  obsolete  at  opening. 

To  provide  the  most  flexible  facilities 
consistent  with  program  and  budget 
guidelines  and  compress  the  design  and 
construction  process  into  the  shortest 
possible  time,  Perini  provides  construction

Perini  Building 


Commercial 


Commercial  projects  demand  the  most 
stringent  cost  controls  during  design  and 
construction.  Their  function  is  to  present  an 
attractive  environment  for  the  display  and 
selling  of  merchandise  while  keeping  real 
estate  charges  in  line  with  operating 
projections.  Although  large  projects  can  be 
monumental  in  form,  the  function  of  a 
commercial  facility  must  remain  the  first 
concern  of  both  designer  and  contractor. 

Perini  builds  for  retailers  and  developers, 
offering  feasibility  studies  and  construction 
cost  budgeting  services  early  in  the  planning 
and  design  stages  in  order  to  minimize 
unknowns  and  assure  the  owner  of  the 
maximum  return  on  his  investment.

Residential 

Today's  residential  construction  requires  a 
strong  emphasis  on  integrating  tiuman  living 
needs  witti  the  existing  environment.  While 
these  factors  are  often  in  conflict,  planners, 
architects  and  contractors  are  offering 
imaginative  solutions  to  man's  shelter 
requirements- 
Public  funded  housing  projects,  university 
dormitories  and  private  developments  for 
low,  moderate  and  high  incomes  make  up 
Perim's  residential  experience

Perini  Industrial 


Industrial  proiects  require  the  marriage  of 
building  and  structure  to  process  and  pro- 
duction with  a  careful  precision  This  preci- 
sion has  been  developed  by  Perini  divisions 
and  subsidiaries  through  years  of  construc- 
tion experience  on  all  types  and  sizes  of 
manufacturing  facilities,  technical  centers, 
process  plants  and  mills. 

Perini's  Yeargin  subsidiary  is  a  "total  service" 
contractor,  performing  mechanical,  electri- 
cal, equipment  installation  and  plant  mainte- 
nance work  with  its  own  forces  in  addition  to 
the  normal  general  construction  tasks 

"Total  service'means  a  more  efficient  man- 
agement organization,  better  control  over  the 


major  elements  of  the  project  and  eliminates 
duplication  of  fees,  equipment  and  supervi- 
sory personnel  that  exist  when  major  portions 
of  the  work  are  subcontracted 

A  broad  range  of  services  can  be  tailored  to 
meet  the  industrial  client's  program  and  con- 
tract requirements  Formats  can  be  engineer/ 
construct,  turnkey  general  construction  or 
contract  maintenance  and  terms  can  be  cost 
plus,  lump  sum  or  any  other  feasible  approach 
that  meets  the  proiect's  special  needs.

Perini  Industrial 

Manufacturing 


Once  the  need  has  been  determined  for 
new  or  expanded  manufacturing  facilities, 
capital  IS  committed  and  industry  looks 
for  the  Shortest  possible  time  frame  for 
completion  of  the  engineering /construction 
process.  Bringing  the  contractor  on  board 
during  the  initial  planning  and  design  phase 
allows  the  industry  to  "fast  track"  the  project 
by  proceeding  with  procurement  of  long 
lead  Items  and  starting  site,  foundation  and 
structural  framing  construction  while 
engineering  and  documentation  are  being 
completed  on  mechanical,  electrical  and 
finish  Items. 


Perim's  Yeargin  subsidiary  put  in  place  a 
1,600,000  square  foot  steel  belted  radial 
tire  manufacturing  plant  in  Wilson,  North 
Carolina  for  Firestone  Tire  &  Rubber 
Company  in  8Vz  months  from  ground 
breaking  until  the  first  tire  was  produced. 
This  project  required  a  maximum  effort  on 
the  part  of  the  Yeargin  management  team, 
with  strong  emphasis  on  procurement 
procedures,  schedule  control  and  cost 
reporting

tors, printed  circuit  boards,  mam  frames  and 
terminals  are  products  created,  manufactured 
and  assembled  at  Perini  built  highi  technology 
facilities.  Some  projects  require  sophisticated 
temperature  and  humidity  controls,  clean

Perini  Transportaiion 


Mass  Transit 


Transportation  projects  have  been  a  ma|or 
line  of  business  for  Perini  since  tfie 
company's  founding  Works  fiave  pro- 
gressed from  single  lane  gravel  roads 
graded  witfi  mule  teams  to  thie  completion  of 
ttie  iviassactiusetts  Turnpike  Extension  in  1965, 
ttie  largest  single  highway  construction 
contract  ever  awarded  in  the  United 
States 

Innovative  development  and  use  of  construc- 
tion equipment,  record  setting  production 
rates  and  accelerated  completions  are  the 
trademarks  of  Perini  transportation  projects 

Activities  now  include  urban  mass  transit 
stations  and  lines,  airport  terminals,  runways 
and  support  facilities  as  well  as  highway 
grading,  paving  and  structures. 


As  energy  costs  continue  to  hamper  our 
freedom  to  move  materials  and  people  on 
our  urban  highway  systems,  the  need  for 
efficient,  safe,  rapid  mass  transit  facilities 
will  be  high  priority  in  all  major  metropolitan 
areas  during  the  coming  years 

In  1976  Perini  was  awarded  the  Federal 
Highway  Administration,  Department  of 
Transportation's  "Eighth  Annual  Award — 
The  Highway  and  Its  Environment"  for  an 
elevated  portion  of  Interstate  93  which 
incorporates  a  rapid  transit  line  and  station 
at  grade  level  The  award  stated  that  the 
project  was  "An  outstanding  example  of 
mass  transportation  within  or  adjacent  to 
the  highway  right-of-way."

Highways 

From  Penni's  beginning,  road,  street  and 
highway  work  have  been  a  basic  elennent  of 
the  company's  overall  operations— growing 
over  the  years 

Excavation,  grading,  aggregate  production, 
paving  and  structures  are  all  part  of  Penni's 
highway  services  for  municipal,  state  and 
federal  governments, 

Perini  crews  blast  rock,  move  dirt,  crush 
stone  and  lay  concrete  with  a  fleet  of  the 
latest  and  most  efficient  equipment  available 
to  the  construction  industry  These  same  tal- 
ents are  now  being  applied  to  the  substantial 
earthmoving  and  site  development  require- 
ments of  the  power  and  oil  shale  industries.

Perini  Power 


Hydroelectric 

Power  projects  require  the  iriteraction  of  many 
construction  disciplines— earth  moving, 
aggregate  production,  sophisticated  forming, 
mass  concrete  pours,  tunneling  and  rigging 
for  equipment  placement,  Perini  divisions  and 
subsidiaries  often  combine  forces  to  perform 
these  tasks  on  an  integrated  total  project 
basis. 

Perini  power  experience  ranges  from  an  earth 
fill  hydroelectric  dam  in  Colombia,  a  concrete 
arch  dam  in  California,  a  pumped  storage 
facility  in  New  York,  a  twin  1150  MW  nuclear

mentation work  which  are  significant  portions 
of  treatment  plant  projects.  Estimators,  engi- 
neers and  managers  place  strong  emphasis 
on  costing,  scheduling,  procuring  and  install- 
ing these  systems. 

Cleaning  up  the  Merrimack  "one  of 
America's  10  most  polluted  rivers"  was 
Perim's  goal  in  constructing  the  52  million 
gallons  per  day  waste  water  treatment  plant 
for  the  Greater  Lawrence  Sanitary  Authority 
The  60  acre  site  contains  2600  lineal  feet 
of  72  inch  force  mam,  two  175  foot 
diameter  16  feet  deep  primary  settling  tanks, 
12  aeration  basins  contained  in  a  concrete 
structure  257  feet  by  210  feet  16  feet  deep,  3 
secondary  settling  tanks  165  foot 
diameter  15  feet  deep,  a  chlorine  chamber 
237  feet  by  85  feet,  1643  lineal  feet  of  10  feet 
to  21  foot  diameter  tunnel,  and  a  5  story

Perini  Environmental 


Dams 

Although  cleaning  the  environment  is  a 
ma|or  concern,  controlling  the  environment 
IS  equally  important  Perini  has  constructed 
earth  fill  flood  control  dams,  locks  and  irriga- 
tion projects  to  harness,  divert  and  better  uti- 
lize nature's  gifts  for  man's  well  being. 

Perini  ingenuity  was  put  to  the  test  at  the 
Bloomington  Lake  Dam  site  in  the  upper 
Potomac  River  Valley  along  the  Maryland- 
West  Virginia  border  The  problem— hauling 
10  million  cubic  yards  of  embankment  from  a 
mountain  top  quarry  to  the  dam  site  450 
vertical  feet  below  The  solution  —  a  2400 


foot  long  conveyor  employing  a  54  inch 
wide  rubber  belt  dropping  to  a  1000  ton 
storage  bin  50  and  70  ton  trucks  then  carried 
the  material  to  the  dam  site.  The  conveyor 
eliminated  one  and  a  half  miles  of  steeply 
graded  high  maintenance  haul  road  as  well 
as  additional  trucks  The  completed  dam  is 
296  feet  high  with  a  2310  foot  crest  length 
impounding  43  billion  gallons  of  water.

Per'mi  Pipeline 


Petroleum/Gas 

Pipeline  proiects  are  equipment  intense  and 
production  oriented.  Ttie  work  flow  is  lineal, 
with  relatively  few  items  but  significant  quan- 
tities Work  units  require  precise  quanti- 
fication and  cost  analysis  to  maintain  target 
estimates  and  schedules. 

While  pipeline  work  is  installed  in  an  orderly 
run,  once  right  of  way  preparation  has  been 
completed,  the  mobilization  and  logistics  of 
remote  sites  often  require  a  labor  force  with 
a  pioneering  spirit  and  a  management  team 
experienced  in  campsite  conditions 

Perims  73%  owned  subsidian/,  Majestic  Wiley 
Contractors  Limited,  has  constructed  oil  and 
gas  projects  in  the  Arctic  north  of  Alaska  and 
the  Northwest  Territones  under  the  severest 
weather  and  soil  conditions,  in  the  mountains 
and  valleys  of  untracked  forests  in  British 
Columbia,  Alberta,  Saskatchewan,  Manitoba 
and  Ontario  and  in  the  tea  plantations  of  India, 

Majestic  Wiley's  U  S  Pipeline  Division,  head- 
quartered in  Lubbock,  Texas,  is  active 
throughout  the  mountain  and  plains  states 
where  petroleum  reserves  along  with  oil  and 
gas  product  lines  are  bringing  Alaskan  and 
Western  fuels  to  satisfy  the  energy  demands  of 
urban  and  industrial  complexes  from  Minne- 
apolis to  Houston 

One  of  Perini  Arctic  Associates  proudest 
moments  was  the  receipt  of  the  following 

telegram: 

V.N.  Osadchuk 

Perini  Arctic  Associates 

"By  fully  completing  the  installation  of  VSM's 
within  your  section,  on  July  8,  1976,  you  are 
to  be  congratulated  on  being  the  first  sec- 
tion to  do  so  You  and  your  people  have 
done  an  exceptional  )ob  in  finishing  first 
on  the  project  and  remaining  within  your 
budget. 

Please  extend  my  appreciation  to  all  in- 
volved for  a  fine  effort."

Perini  Marine 


From  shallow  water  dredging  to  deep  water 
foundations  and  piers,  Perini  marine  ac- 
tivities cover  a  diversity  of  projects — 
dams,  bridges,  sunken  tubes,  pipe  cross- 
ings, graving  docks,  mooring  dolphiins, 
breakwaters,  dikes,  sfiore  protection, 
outfalls  and  terminals 

Perini  was  the  sponsor  and  manager  of 
Perini  North  River  Associates,  a  joint 
venture  formed  to  construct  the 
$228,962,380  Contract  5  of  the  North 
River  Water  Pollution  Control  Project  for  the 
Department  of  Water  Resources,  City  of 
New  York. 

The  project  was  a  32-acre  concrete 
platform  built  over  the  Hudson  River  as  a 
foundation  for  the  North  River  Pollution 
Control  Plant.  Work  quantities  consisted 


of  350,000  lineal  feet  of  42  inch  concrete 
filled  caissons  drilled  through  silt  and 
glacial  till  to  bedrock  depths  of  80  to  240 
feet,  12,500  tons  of  H-piles,  1,000  tons  of 
reinforcing  steel,  115,000  cubic  yards  of 
caisson  concrete.  71,000  cubic  yards  of 
beam  and  girder  concrete,  2100  precast 
concrete  slabs  and  a  32-acre  poured-in- 
place  concrete  deck  varying  from  8  to  16 
inches  in  depth 

"Perini's  Navy"  included  five  60  foot  x  160 
foot  drill  barges  each  carrying  a  rail

Perini  Tunnel 


Recent  impressive  strides  in  engineering 
technology  have  dramatically  changed  tun- 
nel and  shaft  construction  procedures  The 
introduction  of  new  machinery  has  resulted 
in  production  rates  and  advances  thought 
impossible  just  a  few  years  ago.  Tunnel 
boring  machines  (moles),  slurry  shields  and 
ground  freezing  methods  now  provide  alter- 
natives to  the  engineer  and  contractor  where 
adverse  geological  conditions  previously 
prohibited  conventional  driving  and  sinking 
technigues 

While  new  machines  and  methods  can 
greatly  accelerate  the  pace  of  construction, 
save  time  and,  in  some  cases,  provide  the 
rationale  for  considenng  a  tunnel  or  shaft 
project,  underground  work  will  always  con- 
tain an  element  of  risk  Even  with  the  most 
detailed  geological  investigations,  careful 
evaluations  and  design  considerations,  in 
situ  conditions  often  vary  widely  from  those 
predicted  before  start  of  construction 

With  four  decades  of  growth  and  a  history  of 
successful  tunnel  and  shaft  projects.  Perini 
has  developed  a  top-flight  team  of  engineers, 
estimators,  technicians  and  managers  experi- 
enced in  all  aspects  of  tunnel  and  shaft  proj- 
ects Today  Penni  tunnelers  stand  ready  to 
engineer  and  construct  underground  water, 
waste  conduits  and  transit  systems  for  public 
agencies  as  well  as  undertake  the  planning 
and  construction  of  vitally  needed  projects  to 
recover,  move  and  store  natural  resources  for 
the  utility,  mining,  oil  and  gas  industries.

Perini  Mining 


Mining  activities  date  back  to  1944  when 
the  company  first  entered  the  coal  fields  of 
Ohio,  Kentucky,  Pennsylvania  and  West  Vir- 
ginia. The  war  years  found  Perini  working  on 
highways  and  army  camps  in  several  of  the 
coal  states.  With  manpower  and  equipment 
already  in  place,  surface  mining  was  a 
natural  progression.  For  several  years,  until 
the  pressing  wartime  need  for  coal  eased, 
Perim's  mining  operations  produced  in  ex- 
cess of  one  million  tons  of  coal  per  year 

Mining  activities  were  dormant  dunng  the 
late  1950s  and  60s,  In  1970  Perini 
reorganized  Majestic  Mining,  Inc,  and  re- 
entered the  coal  fields  by  opening  up 
surface  mines  at  Wise.  Virginia  and 
Widen,  West  Virginia,  Expansion 
continued  at  the  Widen  property  with  the 
construction  of  a  preparation  plant  and 
the  start-up  of  deep  mine  activities  in  1976. 
Widen  activities  continue  to  develop  with 
increased  separation  capability  at  the  prepa- 
ration plant  and  productions  now  approach 
one  million  tons  per  year  once  again. 

The  mining  operations  group  seeks  property 
acquisitions  and  leases  and  offers  mine 
development,  mine  operation  and  contract 
mining  services  to  property  owners,  mining 
firms  and  utility  companies  on  a  single  or 
composite  task  basis.

ASSOCIATES,  INC. 

Geotechnical  Engineers 


STATEMENT  OF  INTRODUCTION 

The  engineering  firm  of  McPhail  Associates,  Inc.  was  established  in  1976  to  pro- 
vide cost-effective  geotechnical  engineering  and  construction  consultation  serv- 
ices to  Architects,  Engineers,  Owners  and  Contractors  engaged  primarily  in  the 
building,  heavy  construction  and  environmental  industries. 

The  corporate  office  is  located  in  Cambridge,  Massachusetts,  and  contains  both 
engineering  offices  and  laboratory  testing  facilities.   The  professional  staff 
includes  individuals  with  backgrounds  in  Civil  Engineering,  Geotechnical  Engineer- 
ing, and  Geology,  all  of  whom  have  advanced  degrees  in  the  geotechnical  engineer- 
ing discipline. 

Our  key  engineers  have  had  extensive  experience  in  subsurface  investigations,  geo- 
technical analysis  and  design,  design  assistance  to  Structural  Engineers  and  Archi- 
tects, and  construction  control  for  more  than  500  building,  environmental,  water- 
front, and  heavy  construction  projects.   Two  aspects  of  our  background  and  experi- 
ence have  been  invaluable  in  developing  our  perspective  as  it  relates  to  practical 
and  economical  geotechnical  design  and  construction. 

First,  having  participated  with  a  considerable  number  of  highly  qualified  design 
teams  representing  a  broad  spectrum  of  disciplines,  we  appreciate  the  service  role 
of  the  Geotechnical  Engineer  to  the  other  members  of  the  design  team.   We  are 
oriented  towards  providing  timely  design  assistance  which  ensures  proper  implementa- 
tion of  the  geotechnical  design  recommendations  into  the  Contract  Documents.   Design 
assistance  includes  consultation,  preparation  of  earthwork,  pile  and  caisson  speci- 
fications, review  of  foundation  plans,  details  and  notes,  and  coordination  with 
other  technical  sections  and  the  bid  form. 

Second,  we  have  provided  extensive  geotechnical  construction  consultation,  design 
and  inspection  services  to  Contractors  and  Owners  for  many  difficult  deep  excavations 
requiring  cofferdams,  tied-back  and  braced  earth  support  systems,  underpinning, 
rock  slope  stabilization,  and  groundwater  control  or  pressure  relief  systems.   This 
experience  has  emphasized  the  necessity  of  anticipating  foundation  construction 
techniques  and  recognizing  their  impact  upon  the  overall  economics  of  the  founda- 
tion design. 

Since  its  inception,  McPhail  Associates,  Inc.  has  provided  geotechnical  engineer- 
ing services  for  projects  valued  at  more  than  5.7  billion  dollars  worldwide.   Our 
key  engineers  have  worked  on  projects  throughout  the  United  States,  in  Canada,  and  in 
the  Middle  East,  but  the  majority  of  our  projects  has  been  in  New  England.   Many 
have  been  in  greater  Boston  with  its  difficult  subsurface  conditions.
