The Lorien Hotel & Spa
Alexandria, VA
The existing historic structure was completely re-pointed, new architectural windows were installed, along with a new standing seam copper roof. The interior 2nd floor was removed to create a vaulted ceiling for a Wine Bar Bistro, with a brick oven pizza oven known as Brabo Tasting Room. The project also included a new 6-story hotel and 2-level underground garage. The new building skin incorporates an existing historic facade that was saved and restored via a facadectomy.

Testimonial
We have had the opportunity to work together on a variety of projects. Our experience has been overwhelmingly positive, and I attribute that to several reasons: hands-on leadership of ownership, corporate culture of collaboration and teamwork; and creativity in problem solving.
