7. MARGO JONES ARCHITECTS DECEMBER 2008- AUGUST 2010
PROJECT LOCATION:
MAIN STREET HISTORIC DISTRICT
GREENFIELD, MASSACHUSETTS
In an unprecedented effort of downtown
revitalization, six business owners of nine
historic buildings, all within the National
Register listed Greenfield Main Street
Historic District, banded together to obtain
funding, including New Market, state and
federal historic rehabilitation tax credits.
Margo Jones Architects, consulting with
Epsilon Associates, wrote all MHC and
NPS tax credit applications and follow-up
correspondence with both agencies. MJA
was also architect for two projects.
These nine buildings have suffered from
decades of neglect. The influx of state and
federal tax credits will provide the oppor-
tunity for new residential and commercial
uses, an economic boost which is long
overdue.

N/S Section I
PROJECT LOCATION:
83 WISDON WAY
GREENFIELD, MASSACHUSETTS
The Roundhouse, a Shaker style round
barn built in 1899, sits at the entrance of
the Franklin County Fairgrounds. It is
a wood framed building with a conical,
wood-shingled roof that rises to a round
cupola. Over time, significant deteriora-
tion had taken its toll on the building,
resulting in a historic resource in great
need of rehabilitation.
Under the direction of the Franklin
County Agricultural Society, Margo Jones
Architects was hired to document current
building conditions and oversee the reha-
bilitation. With the help of multiple Mas-
sachusetts state grants, the structure was
reinforced, and a new wood shingle roof,
various portions of siding, new windows,
and a new flagpole were installed.

19. ADVANCED STUDIO FALL 2007
PROJECT LOCATION:
West 38th Ave. and Tennyson St.
Denver, CO
PROJECT OVERVIEW:
In this Advanced Studio, we used an actual,
ongoing project in Denver to explore the
nature of historic preservation, adaptive
re-use and interventions of an important
historic building.
The client, the Center for American The-
ater, asked the class to design alterations to
the historic Elitch Theater so that it would
meet the requirements of a modern facility
while maintaining its integrity as an historic
structure that played a significant role in the
development of theater not only in Denver,
but the entire country. We were also asked
to add a school to the existing theater.

23. STUDIO IV SPRING 2007
PROJECT LOCATION:
14th and Larimer Sts.
Denver, CO
PROJECT OVERVIEW:
In Studio IV, we were asked to design a
cinema/archive. The cinema was to be the
point of departure as well as the vehicle for
the exploration of the link between build-
ing types and the cultural institutions they
serve, i.e. the link between form, function,
and ideology.
How cultural values, beliefs, ideas and ide-
als are formed and given architectonic form
and what specific role buildings do or can
play within the wider cultural context were
some of the many issues explored in this
studio class.

PROJECT LOCATION:
13th and Bannock Sts.
Denver, CO
PROJECT OVERVIEW:
In Studio III, we were asked to design a
single-artist museum to house the entire
works of the Abstract Expressionist painter
Clyfford Still.
Sited just west of Daniel Libeskind’s Ham-
ilton Wing of the Denver Art Museum,
part of the challenge was to design a build-
ing which would sit directly adjacent to an
iconic building. This project also had a very
specific program specified by the estate of
Clyfford Still, including an educational cen-
ter, a library, archives, storage, a conserva-
tion laboratory and a variety of public areas.

31. B & W PHOTOGRAPHY
Photography has been a hobby of mine
since I took a few classes during high
school. Learning on a 35 mm film camera,
as well as spending time in the darkroom
developing film and printing photographs,
really gave me an appreciation for the art of
photography. I have since moved into the
world of digital photography, but the basic
principles remain the same.
Photography is all about capturing light and
space while framing a subject in a pleasing
composition. Movement, scale, foreground/
background and depth are also important
aspects of any photographer’s work. In my
opinion, photography and architecture
share many of the same overarching ideas,
and the study of one can certainly pertain
to the other, both directly and indirectly.
Obtaining an understanding of light and
shadow, for example, will help both the
photographer and the architect excel in
their medium.
