Irena Savakova and Anya Grant Share Insights About the Design of the University of Maryland’s Thurgood Marshall Hall

The July issue of American School and University features an article from LEO A DALY’s Irena Savakova and Anya Grant, sharing the design successes for the University of Maryland’s Thurgood Marshall Hall.

Home to the university’s School of Public Policy, Thurgood Marshall Hall was designed to create connectivity between students, staff and visitors to campus. The design incorporated ancient Greek architecture with today’s technology to support that goal, and the results have been validated by a post-occupancy evaluation. In the article, Savakova and Grant share how LEO A DALY was able to overcome a limited budget to create this inspirational facility.

“The democratic ideals of equality, visibility and transparency served as organizing principles that guided the design of every element — from the interior program to the exterior expression,” they wrote.

20 Mass Earns Rethinking the Future Award, an International Honor

The Adaptive Reuse Project Won in the Mixed Use (Built) Category

20 Mass

An international jury has honored the LEO A DALY-designed 20 Mass project with a Rethinking the Future Award, which recognizes excellence in global architecture.

The former federal office building at 20 Massachusetts Ave. in Washington D.C. was reimagined and rebuilt, becoming a 427,000-SF mixed-use development with office space, a luxury hotel — the Royal Sonesta Capitol Hill at 20 Mass — amenities and retail. The adaptive reuse re-stitched the existing building into an evolving urban context and created a vital new social and cultural hub for the neighborhood. LEO A DALY designed the mixed-use structure for developer The RMR Group.

“The completion of the revitalization project at 20 Massachusetts Ave NW represents more than just a successful fusion of history and modernity; it symbolizes the collective effort and vision of stakeholders committed to creating a vibrant mixed-use destination that enriches the surrounding community and enhances the city’s urban fabric for generations to come,” says the award’s website.

20 Mass

Christopher Bilotto, executive vice president of The RMR Group, has said: “This successful conversion of a former government office building into a Class A mixed-use destination is the culmination of significant efforts by RMR, its client Office Properties Income Trust, and the redevelopment project team.”

20 Mass

20 Mass has previously been honored with several other awards, including ULI Washington, NAIOP’s DC/Maryland chapter and the Washington Business Journal. Royal Sonesta at 20 Mass is on the shortlist for the 2024 International Hotel & Property Awards. In addition to these accolades, the vibrancy of the public spaces, the mix of guests and local community at the street level restaurant, the completely booked conference spaces and Grand Ballroom for the next 3 years are a testament to a successfully implemented design vision.

Two LEO A DALY Projects Earn BD+C 2024 Innovation Spotlight

Carson Group and 20 Mass Make the Top 40 Great Solutions Report

Each year Building Design + Construction editors analyze hundreds of submissions to select 40 Great Solutions to publish nationally. 

The Great Solutions featured in this year’s BD+C roundup have exceptional characteristics that benefit clients/owners, building occupants and the broad market of development, design and construction. LEO A DALY earned two spots on the 2024 list.

“Both projects demonstrate the innovative results of collaborative partnerships combined with our comprehensive service capabilities,” shares LEO A DALY President, Steve Lichtenberger. “We aim to leave a sustainable signature by delivering visionary architecture with world-class occupant experience through highly refined engineering.”

The Carson Group Headquarters post-occupancy evaluation validates the buildings’ innovative shell and building system design. The smart glass responds to changing concentrations of daylight to control heat gain and glare, and all building systems were designed in concert with the SageGlass envelope to maximize occupant comfort.

20 Massachusetts Avenue models a responsible placemaking design solution that restitches the urban fabric and now serves as a prominent anchor in Capitol Hill and Washington, D.C. The design implemented creative modular construction with curated components prefabricated off-site which reduced waste by 50% and saved considerable cost and time.

Yakowicz, PE, MHA. “After three months in operation, it is also so rewarding to hear firsthand from staff how the planning and design of the facility makes it easier for them to do their important work.”
