People's Emergency Center, Rowan House

Rowan House is a transitional facility for homeless women and children.  The project required a program incorporating 20 residential rooms, classrooms, counseling and administrative spaces.  The scope of work included renovation of an existing 24,000 SF, four-story historic building and a new 12,000 SF addition including new mechanical and electrical systems, interior finishes and site design. Restoration had to meet the requirements of the Philadelphia Historic Commission and the community.
