PROJECT NOTEBOOK
 Preliminary Notes
The project includes an English Tudor Revival building, the Groesbeck Lodge, which is listed on the National Register of
Historic Places. The Cincinnati Nature Center (CNC) owns the property and would like for the Groesbeck Lodge to become
home to their new Center for Conservation and Stewardship (CCS). It will be adaptive reuse project. The Lodge and it’s
surrounding property consists of additional outbuildings, the historic gardens, and landscape architecture on-site.

Bill Hopple, the CNC Executive Director, would like the design for the new CCS to embrace the historic style and preserve
any significant interior and exterior craftsmanship.
 SCOPE OF PROJECT
CCS will need office spaces, conference/meeting spaces, research labs, training rooms, a small retail gift shop, and ADA
accessible restrooms.

CNC would like the design to embrace the historic style and features of the existing building, preserving any significant
interior and exterior craftsmanship.

Any new products, materials, or workmanship included in the project should be as sustainable and environmentally
friendly as possible – focusing on improved indoor air quality, energy efficiency, and efficient material usage.

The spaces should also be accessible and designed with Universal Design Principles at the forefront.

The outbuildings highlighted on the attached site plan can also be used to accommodate some of the required spaces,
though usage of the outbuildings is not mandatory if all of the program requirements can be met within the lodge
footprint.

Every effort should be made, where feasible, to design all of the spaces of this project to be Universal and Accessible to
everyone. Certain accessibility exemptions due to the historic nature of this property are listed later in this document.

 SUSTAINABLE DESIGN
Lighting
Use natural light when possible. Artificial lighting should be LEDs, halogens, and compact fluorescent bulbs to save
energy and longer life span.

Paints/Finishes
Use non-toxic and non-pollutant products for paints and other finishes to will ensure good indoor air quality.

Furniture
Use local furniture manufacturers when possible. Ensure any source promotes safe manufacturing processes. Make
sure furniture is sustainable.

Daylight Control
To help reduce energy, a daylight control system will be used to control blinds and lighting.
 HISTORIC PRESERVATION
• The historic characteristics of the building will be restored and retained.
• Each property will be recognized as a reflection of its time, place, and use in history.
• Distinct materials that represent the era the building was constructed in will be preserved.
• When required to repair a material, a new one will have the same color, texture, and design to retain the
original look.
• Chemicals used to clean materials or surfaces will use the gentlest mean possible. Chemicals that could
• potentially damage these materials won’t be used.
• Alterations of interior features, spaces, or spatial relationships will be avoided
 ACOUSTICS
• Acoustics can be manipulated in the following ways:
• Using area rugs or carpeted flooring to absorb sound so the noise doesn’t bounce off of the surface and
cause a lot of reverberations.
• Using heavier curtains to absorb the reverberations that would otherwise reflect off of the walls.
• Plan noisier rooms to be closer together, while keeping quieter rooms away from them.
• Using buffer spaces, such as closets or hallways in between noisy spaces.
• Acoustical ceiling tiles can be used to absorb sound
• Acoustical wall panels can be used to absorb sound

CASE STUDY: ADAPTIVE REUSE

4240
Architecture, Inc
Denver,
Colorado
 Case study: adaptive reuse
The Weiglele Pipe Foundry building in downtown Denver was constructed in 1903. Today, it’s home to 4240
Architecture, Inc offices in Denver’s revitalized River North district. The adaptive reuse project preserved many
inherently efficient features of a historical building such as operable skylights and windows, brick construction and
ample natural lighting. 4240 Architecture, Inc wanted to maintain many of the architectural elements of the foundry
by incorporating beams, vents, skylights and cranes. The project used the Commercial Interiors (CI) certification
system instead of Existing Buildings: Operations and Management (EB:OM). The Weiglele Pipe Foundry building
project earned a total of 36 credits and only three of those credits directly or indirectly related to the reuse of the
historical building’s inherently efficient elements. the project’s reuse of at least 40% of
the interior elements of the foundry aside from the shell infrastructure of the building was the most obvious credit
earned. Another one point was earned for ‘Daylight and views: daylight 75% of spaces’, which indirectly
acknowledged the 28 operable skylights, which allow a natural flood of daylight into the building, reducing electric
lighting power usage. The operable skylights also allowed natural ventilation and reduce HVAC system use. The
project also received acknowledgement for its ‘Innovation in design, regional materials’ that applies to the general
design of the project as well as its dedication to utilizing regional materials. The project utilized vernacular elements
of the operable windows and brick construction, but did not incorporate its exterior window treatments, awnings or
overhanging roofs and covered porches.
