The gift of the class of 2011, the memorial will honor Penn State veterans. Ennead partners Richard Olcott and Timothy Hartung will lead the design team. In a pivotal location adjacent to both the University's Old Main and its quad and Pollack Road, the memorial occupies a culturally and spatially significant spot on campus, sited to become a central part of the campus experience. Preliminary plans for the Veterans Plaza feature a circular walkway and curved wall made of precast concrete, centered around an artistic representation of a warrior’s shield, symbolizing honor and sacrifice. The plaza’s curved wall will be named to honor Lt. Michael P. Murphy, a 1998 liberal arts graduate and the only Penn State alumnus to earn the Medal of Honor. Lt. Murphy, a Navy Seal, posthumously received the U.S. military's highest decoration for his actions in 2005 during the war in Afghanistan. The proposed shield form is a ten-foot-diameter disc carved in polished black “jet-mist” granite set to float above the grass, its surface carved to simulate “rippling water” and thus to evoke a feeling of contemplation. With this project, Ennead will now have designed three projects for Penn State, including the Dickinson School of Law’s Lewis Katz Building on the University Park campus and the Lewis Katz Hall on the Carlisle campus. Richard Olcott and Timothy Hartung, along with partner Kevin McClurkan, led the Ennead design team for these previous projects.

FDNY Rescue Company 3 New York : SARA Award of Excellence The Schermerhorn Brooklyn : SARA Award of Excellence Ennead Architects Finalist for Ace Awards June 22, 2011, New York, NY - Ennead Architects is a finalist for the ACE Award. Sponsored by the ACE Mentor Program of Greater New York, this award honors a NYC-based architectural firm that has shown excellence in the design and construction of buildings for K-12 and higher education in the greater New York area. The jury premiated Ennead after considering its Gateway Center at Westchester Community College and Academic Building 1 at Medgar Evers College. Westchester Community College ; Medgar Evers College: photographs © Jeff Goldberg/Esto for Ennead Architects Susan Rodriguez (design partner) and Timothy Hartung (management partner) led the design team for the Gateway Center, a building that symbolizes the College’s vision and commitment to a more accessible education for residents of Westchester County and to an American college experience for the many recent immigrants seeking to improve the quality of their lives. According to Rodriguez, “We sought to create a building that strengthens the meaning of the word Gateway for those who might already know its definition and forever define it for those who are learning it for the first time in English...as a physical embodiment of ‘something that serves as an entrance or a means of access’.” Located at the east entrance of the College’s Valhalla campus, the Gateway Center serves as both an initial expression of campus identity and a threshold to the College. Academic Building 1 at Medgar Evers College of the City University of New York houses the School of Science, Health and Technology and was recently awarded a SCUP Award for excellence in architecture. Todd Schliemann (design partner) and Joseph Fleischer (management partner) led the design team. The light-filled corridors, lobby and stairs adjacent to the glass curtain wall provide views out to the community and allow the community to witness the activity within, while facilitating student and faculty interaction and the interdisciplinary mingling that enriches the educational experience. “Architecture is a living testament to the communal effort. My hope is that the students, faculty, administrators, and visitors who walk through the doors of the new Science, Health and Technology Building will find others of like mind. This architecture was designed to bring everyone together,” says Schliemann. The winner will be announced at the ACE Ball, which will be held tomorrow evening, Thursday, June 23, 2011 at 6:30 PM – 9:00 PM at the Center for Architecture.
