Foley Square Courthouse Renovation
New York, NY

Urbahn in collaboration renowned restoration architect Giorgio Cavaglieri, provided design services to modernize this magnificent structure to meet current judicial needs and standards. Our work included restoration of the three historic courtrooms and upgrading for video and security, new elevator lobby lighting, creation of new courtrooms and judges' chambers, and mechanical ventilation of public rest rooms.
 
The general design of major public spaces is very typical Italianate or American Renaissance design. Great rooms with round arches, elegant wood paneling and marble wainscotting, recounts the great renaissance Florentine and Roman palaces of the 16th Century.
