GF55 Architects

Governor Kathy Hochul and local officials gathered at the Re*****on Boys & Girls Club of New Rochelle to announce state funding for the Project. This reconfiguration will reconnect the historically African-American Lincoln Park Neighborhood that was split apart due to the construction of Memorial Highway. This was a victory for New Rochelle Mayor Yadira Ramos-Herbert who has long championed this change.

GF55 Architects is honored that our design for the Boys & Girls Club has become a civic hub for the life of New Rochelle.
