At the November LAIGW meeting,  LAIGW had its largest attendance since the start of the pandemic.  Attendees heard an excellent presentation on the timely topic of converting office space to residential use.   David Haresign FAIA, partner at Bonstra | Haresign ARCHITECTS discussed the potential for such conversions, and Brant Snider, Managing Director at Urban Atlantic highlighted acquisition and business challenges. Lizza Medina, AIA shared two office to residential conversion case studies, one completed in Alexandria and one being designed for Urban Atlantic in Washington, DC.
