McAuliffe + Carroll Architects

Congratulations, SJH – LIFE!

Our project in Vineland NJ, South Jersey Healthcare – LIFE, had a grand opening last week complete with ribbon speakers, speaches and a ribbon cutting. The heat was overwhelming outside, but the event was joyful inside. SJH is expecting the first participants on August 1st.

The former showroom space, now Activities Room 3, was converted into a cozy auditorium:

Guided tours took guests throughout the building.

The former service bay, now Activities Room 2, was the banquet room.

Snip!

The new paradigm for signs?

April, 1981. I was in my 3rd year of architecture school in Brooklyn, NY, and was a bit of a space junkie. Had been since watching the Apollo missions while growing up. The shuttle was all over the news then- before internet, before cable news. My roomates & I watched the first lift off on a tiny b&W tv (we were one of the few who had tv's in the dorm then!). I recall how thrilling it was...

Cut to 30 years later and while waiting to leave for a week's vacation I turn on the tv (flat screen, HD, cable, FiOS) just in time for the last shuttle launch.

 

Only this time I get to share it with my son Ethan. I had the volume up loud. 0 to 600MPH in less then  a minute- awesome. He was excited, and so was I...
