ICNEW SCHOOL OF MUSIC
GOSHEN COLLEGE
GOSHEN, INDIANA
Project Owner: Goshen College
Project Cost: $9,000,000
Project Area: 74,000 square feet

The Goshen Music School is a 74,000 square
foot facility which incorporates a 900 seat Con-
cert Hall, a 200 seat organ/recital hall, an Art Gal-
lery, and Faculty Studios into a building which
will serve as teaching facilities for the Music De-
partment of Goshen College.
The Concert Hall will accommodate primarily in-
strumental and choral performances and features
a wraparound balcony at the rear and sides of
the stage. This balcony also serves as a choral
loft adjacent to the stage area.
The Organ/Recital Hall is intended to be a multi-
functional space with movable seating which can
be rearranged to view recitals held upon a raised
platform at one end and organ/choral perfor-
mances from a raised position to enhance the
quality of the sound from the organ at the oppo-
site end of the room. This space also features a
raised side viewing balcony.
Connecting all of the primary spaces is a curvi-
linear lobby space surrounding an outdoor court-
yard. This central circular element is an impor-
tant and symbolic religious form for the Menno-
nite faith, members of whom founded and oper-
ate Goshen College.

Café du Monde, whose main restaurant is still
at its original location on Decatur Street in the
Vieux Carré, has stores in several shopping
centers in the New Orleans area. To have a
second independent outlet, they purchased an
existing two-story bank branch on Veterans
Highway in Jefferson Parish to convert it to a
coffee house. An existing two-story gabled front
porch will be removed and the roof restructured
into a Louisiana hipped roof. Two thirds of the
second floor will be removed to spatially enhance
the first floor seating, reminiscent of the French
Quarter location. The remaining Second Floor
area will become a mechanical mezzanine.
Large arched openings with fan lights and french
doors will be added to recall the original 1850’s
French Market building. On the two street sides,
a metal roofed awning will provide covered out-
door seating. The interior finishes will also re-
call those of the original stand but with contem-
porary elements, such as exposed structural
beams and the steel tie rod and turn buckle
cross-bracing.

The new entry development of the Audubon Zoo is
designed to expand the identity of this world class
facility. It consists of increased ticketing and queu-
ing into a large orientation plaza. Once inside, tour
and school groups may marshal as they proceed
to all of the exhibits offered. Visitors to the plaza will
enjoy indigenous Louisiana treats and American fa-
vorites at the food concession or purchase perma-
nent reminders of their visit in a themed giftshop.
On the opposite side of the plaza and watching over
all of the public activity will be Sales Administration
and Security Offices. The outdoor spaces are or-
ganized by a grid of live oaks, which add to the Zoo’s
inventory of these magnificent native trees. Total
cost of the project was $6,500,000.00, and it will be
complete in November, 2000

To quote the Audubon Institute, “Once a favorite
venue for get-togethers of every kind, the his-
toric Audubon Tea Room was built at the turn of
the century and destroyed by fire in 1976. Offer-
ing a unique setting for local families and friends
to join together to celebrate their special occa-
sions, theAudubon Tea Room was a place where
white gloves were worn and first kisses were sto-
len. Still a cherished reminiscence today, the
Audubon Tea Room is deeply woven into the rich
fabric of New Orleans heritage.”
The new Audubon Tea Room was designed by
Cashio, Cochran, Torre/Design Consortium, Ltd.,
in collaboration with The Mathes Group.
The new one-storied building will emulate, in form
and volume the original Audubon Tea Room. In
style and construction, however, it reflects the
architecture of existing new Zoo buildings with
its rich blend of brick, stucco, and copper.

The Moores School of Music at the University of
Houston is prominently sited at the main entrance
to the University of Houston. Facing this cam-
pus entrance is the raised, glazed lobby for the
Opera Hall. Visible are the monumental murals
of the world-renowned abstract artist, Frank
Stella, which adorn the ceiling, and rear wall of
the mezzanine level in the Lobby and the oval
shaped catwalk of the Opera Hall itself.
The building borrows art deco detailing from other
buildings on campus, though the detailing has
been simplified to modern brick construction. The
use of several colors of brick also relates the
building contextually to other buildings on cam-
pus.
The building consists of 64 faculty studios, 80
practice rooms, a band rehearsal hall, a choral
rehearsal hall and an ensemble hall as well as a
small recital hall, library, classrooms and admin-
istrative offices.

The Moores Opera Hall is an intimate 800 seat the-
ater, which was designed to evoke the spirit of an 18th
century theater. With two tiers of box seats designed
in a horseshoe shape, only 67 feet separate the stage
from the back row. Decorative lighting was custom
designed throughout the Opera Hall by famed San An-
tonio craftsman Isaac Maxwell. These include the
torches on the top of the columns in the Opera Hall
and the splendid chandelier located in the lobby.
The new state-of-the-art music facility is one of the new-
est and finest facilities on the campus, thanks to a gen-
erous $18.5 million gift from John and Rebecca Moores
who met at the University of Houston in the 1960’s.

Built on the site of a surplus wharf along the Missis-
sippi River in New Orleans’ historic Vieux CarrĂ©, the
Aquarium of the Americas opened to record atten-
dance in September, 1990. The surrounding fifteen-
acre Woldenberg Riverfront Park was opened in fall,
1989.
The Mathes Group is proud to have been one of the
firms selected to form the joint venture, The Bienville
Group, the team which conceived, designed, and
completed the facility in less than four years.
The design of the Aquarium was strongly influenced
by the need to accommodate entire habitats that give
visitors a view of the wild, both above and below the
water. Each of the four large exhibits represents a
major aquatic habitat of North or South America; a
500,000 gallon Gulf of Mexico exhibit, the Caribbean
Reef Environment with a 30-foot long acrylic tunnel,
the Amazon River Rain Forest Habitat, and the Mis-
sissippi River and Delta Habitat. The Aquarium has
thousands of examples of nearly 400 species of fish,
reptiles, and other animals.
The Aquarium also houses a seafood restaurant, a
gift shop, classrooms, research labs, offices, and
salinization equipment.

The Corporate Headquarters development for
Pelican Homestead and Savings Association was
planned as the initial structure of a phased three-
building complex sited on 6Âœ acres. The building’s
plan allows for a connection to a future symmetri-
cally opposed building at the rear entrance area.
Pelican Homestead’s objective for their corporate
headquarters was to house all of their operations
within a single building and to allow for maximum
flexibility within the office area. Designed through-
out each 23,000 square-foot office floor was a
demountable interior partition system, an
underfloor cellular deck distribution system for elec-
trical and communication systems, and a live floor
load of 150 lbs./sq. ft.
The office floors radiate as 90Âș wings from the
central core area and provide the enclosure for a
four-story atrium banking lobby. This lobby ech-
oes the historical image of the grand banking lobby
expressed in the atrium’s façade and the column-
supported entablature following the line of the
bank’s teller line within.

The News Orleans Center for Creative Arts was
established in 1973 as a "training center" for stu-
dents in theater, music, dance, communications
and the visual arts. It was seen as a part of a
comprehensive education package being pro-
posed to the State Department of Education and
the Louisiana Legislature. Since 1973, housed
in the LaSalle School in the 6000 block of Perrier
Street, it has produced world famous perform-
ers like Wynton Marsalis and Harry Connick, Jr.
With the old building badly deteriorating and
never providing suitable facilities, the School
Board and the Friends of NOCCA set out to pro-
vide an environment worthy of the center's repu-
tation.
Thirteen year's ago, The Mathes Group and an-
other firm were selected in a joint venture to be
the architects and to assist in programming and
site selection. Working in concert with the Acad-
emy of Educational Department and the NOCCA

SITE SELECTION-A CASE STUDY
NEW ORLEANS CENTER FOR CRE-
ATIVE ARTS
New Orleans Center for Creative Arts
(NOCCA) spent several years search-
ing for a site. Each site demanded a
site analysis be made to determine if
the architectural program could be ac-
commodated at that particular site. In
addition, Zoning and Building Codes
imposed constraints upon each piece
of property. At the same time, site
analysis presents additional opportu-
nities and/or constraints unique to each
site.
NOCCA considered numerous sites
over many years before
settling upon the chosen
location just downtown
fromthe French Quarter.
The availability of a
Western Electric manu-
facturing facility (now a
furniture store and ware-
house) in Mid City
prompted the original
charrette in 1986 (coor-
dinated by the late Ben
Graves of Educational Facilities
Laboratories).
The Warehouse District re-de-
velopment spurred by the 1984
World’s Fair produced a num-
ber of candidates for adaptive
re-use, as did the old U.S. Mint
building on Esplanade Avenue
at the north end of the French
Quarter.
New construction in City Park
not far from the New Orleans
Museum of Art proved to be an
idle dream. However, when new
construction on a empty lot ad-
joining a Standard Coffee warehouse
inspired a class project at Tulane Uni-
versity School of Architecture, their
imaginative view studies embraced vi-
sual access to the Mississippi River and
surrounding historic neighborhoods.
The lot, however, proved too small for
the instructional and architectural pro-
gram and it was not available.
This new interest of NOCCA in explor-
ing areas ripe for neighborhood revi-
talization and economic development

along this light industrial and rail-
way corridor bordering the river ul-
timately resulted in discovering
what has become its new address
on Chartres Street, straddling the
historic Faubourg Marigny and
Bywater areas at the River. It is on
the site of the old Cotton Steam
Press warehouses, which had also
served as passenger substations
years ago when Homer Pleasy pur-
chased his fateful trainticket amidst
the cotton bales.
Accessible to the Interstate (I-10)
via Elysian Fields Avenue, this lo-
cation allows NOCCA to continue
its development as a center for the
arts training for high school stu-
dents commuting from the eight
parish (county) metro-region of
New Orleans.
But, as much as this site was rea-
sonable in cost (being partly do-
nated by Southern Railways) and
presented opportunities for the
adaptive reuse of historically sig-
nificant structures in historic neigh-
borhoods, there were also problems
to be dealt with.
There are the obvious additional
cost s in rehabilitating historic
structures to accommodate present
uses. There is a railroad track bisect-
ing the property and there are high
voltage lines running along the edge
of the site.
By creatively dealing with each
of the “problems” and looking
upon themas opportunities rather
than “problems”, the unique so-
lution that is now NOCCA
evolved. Yes, it cost a bit more
to satisfy the preservation au-
thorities while adaptively reha-
bilitating the existing ware-
houses, but the students now get
anarchitecturalhistorylessonand
city history lesson by osmosis.
The track, serving the wharves
alongtheMississippi, teaches the eco-
nomic importance of the port to the
Cityand, theysay, trains will only
run early in the morning and early
in the evening; notenough to con-
flict with normal use times for the
facilities. The high voltage lines
proved, after studies, to be a non-
issue.
The important message is to ap-
proach available sites with posi-
tive, creative thoughts. Solutions
will generally appear.

Institute, an ideal program was developed to satisfy all of
the needs of all departments. In the Fall of 1990, the Man-
deville Street Wharf was offered to NOCCA as a possible
site by the Board of Commissioners of the Port of New Or-
leans. In December of 1990, the architects conducted a collo-
quium to review the merits of this site as a location for the Cen-
ter. However, in 1993, an alternate site was purchased by the
NOCCA Institute. This site is on the Mississippi River in Fau-
bourg Marigny, adjacent to the warf.
We have developed the unique design
in response to the site by incorporating
several existing, wonderful warehouse
buildings, in response to the program,
by weaving all classrooms, studios and
performance (Dance, Theater, an Ex-
perimental Theatre, Recital Hall, Jazz
Club and Art Gallery) spaces into a
building which evokes the spontaneity
and creativity of the students, and in
response to the budget by utilizing ap-
propriate materials and building sys-
tems.

site, includes design and construction of a mu-
seum and interpretive center, archival research
library, archaeological laboratory, and site im-
provements, including interpretive trails and RV
and tent camping park.
The buildings had to be distinctive, yet compat-
ible with the local architectural context, and should
be sited inconspicuously near the mission site,
yet have a distinct image as a public building as-
sociated with its function. Funding was through
The Texas Department of Transportation and the

Principal-in-Charge: Jay Boydston
Project Architect: Jay Boydston
Completion Date: May 1996
Completed in 1996, this project is adjacent to
Market Square Park in Houston’s Historic Dis-
trict. It provides a new 50-foot tall tower to house
the 1903 Houston City Hall clock. Landscaping
and streetscape for the base of the tower will be
provided as part of a future plan for the area.
This clock tower was developed as part of a mas-
ter plan to create a livable community in the
Warehouse District of downtown Houston. Sited
at a prominent intersection, the tower serves a
gate-marker for this newly rejuvenated area, that
continues to see the conversion of former ware-
house buildings into lofts spaces for urban living
and offices. It is hoped that the tower will help to
spur further redevelopment in the area and spark
activity in the park across the street.

The Metro RideStore is a retail store operated by the
Metropolitan Transit Authority to provide transit in-
formation and bus tickets and tokens to the public.
The Mathes Group used historic detailing to create
the atmosphere of a turn-of-the-century train station
on the first floor of the Scanlan Building , built in down-
town Houston in 1909. Although the public portion
evokes another era, the staff work areas incorpo-
rate all the technology found at the other RideStores,
including accessibility throughout

The Hisotric Sealy Mansion of Galveston, Texas,
was renovated by our Houston office to become
a Conference and meeting faciility for the Uni-
versity of Texas Medical Branch, located a few
blocks from this centrally located structure. The
facility resides at the corner of the two most
prominent streets in Galveston, a short walk from
the Strand and Downtown Galveston.
The house was designed by the renowned New
York firm of McKim, Mead and White, in 1891,
with an ajoining stable completed by N.J. Clay-
ton in 1892,as a home for the railroad magnate
George Sealy and his wife Magnolia Willis. The
home was donated by their children to the Uni-
versity in memory of their parents in 1979
The Mathes Group completed an extensive sur-
vey of the existing conditions and recommended
the possibilities for a teleconferencing center to
the University in a Master Plan. The renovation
included extensive restoration and repair to the
exterior of the building, and many interior modifi-

rent regulations. A new exiting stair was sensitive inserted
into one of the houses many turrets, and an addition was
added to the rear to meet ADA requirements. These
senstive modifications are barely noticable from the street
and have not significantly altered the historic and artistic
character of the house.

Mathes, AIA Project Architect: Peter F. Priola, AIA Ann Schmuelling, AIA The Goshen Music School is a 74,000 square foot facility which incorporates a 900 seat Con- cert Hall, a 200 seat organ/recital hall, an Art Gal- lery, and Faculty Studios into a building which will serve as teaching facilities for the Music De- partment of Goshen College. The Concert Hall will accommodate primarily in- strumental and choral performances and features a wraparound balcony at the rear and sides of the stage. This balcony also serves as a choral loft adjacent to the stage area. The Organ/Recital Hall is intended to be a multi- functional space with movable seating which can be rearranged to view recitals held upon a raised platform at one end and organ/choral perfor- mances from a raised position to enhance the quality of the sound from the organ at the oppo- site end of the room. This space also features a raised side viewing balcony. Connecting all of the primary spaces is a curvi- linear lobby space surrounding an outdoor court- yard. This central circular element is an impor- tant and symbolic religious form for the Menno- nite faith, members of whom founded and oper- ate Goshen College.

To have a second independent outlet, they purchased an existing two-story bank branch on Veterans Highway in Jefferson Parish to convert it to a coffee house. An existing two-story gabled front porch will be removed and the roof restructured into a Louisiana hipped roof. Two thirds of the second floor will be removed to spatially enhance the first floor seating, reminiscent of the French Quarter location. The remaining Second Floor area will become a mechanical mezzanine. Large arched openings with fan lights and french doors will be added to recall the original 1850’s French Market building. On the two street sides, a metal roofed awning will provide covered out- door seating. The interior finishes will also re- call those of the original stand but with contem- porary elements, such as exposed structural beams and the steel tie rod and turn buckle cross-bracing.

Box 4327 New Orleans, LA 70178 (504) 861-5115 To quote the Audubon Institute, “Once a favorite venue for get-togethers of every kind, the his- toric Audubon Tea Room was built at the turn of the century and destroyed by fire in 1976. Offer- ing a unique setting for local families and friends to join together to celebrate their special occa- sions, theAudubon Tea Room was a place where white gloves were worn and first kisses were sto- len. Still a cherished reminiscence today, the Audubon Tea Room is deeply woven into the rich fabric of New Orleans heritage.” The new Audubon Tea Room was designed by Cashio, Cochran, Torre/Design Consortium, Ltd., in collaboration with The Mathes Group. The new one-storied building will emulate, in form and volume the original Audubon Tea Room. In style and construction, however, it reflects the architecture of existing new Zoo buildings with its rich blend of brick, stucco, and copper.

Visible are the monumental murals of the world-renowned abstract artist, Frank Stella, which adorn the ceiling, and rear wall of the mezzanine level in the Lobby and the oval shaped catwalk of the Opera Hall itself. The building borrows art deco detailing from other buildings on campus, though the detailing has been simplified to modern brick construction. The use of several colors of brick also relates the building contextually to other buildings on cam- pus. The building consists of 64 faculty studios, 80 practice rooms, a band rehearsal hall, a choral rehearsal hall and an ensemble hall as well as a small recital hall, library, classrooms and admin- istrative offices.

Brierre, AIA Contact: Mr. Ronald Forman 504.861.5112 Built on the site of a surplus wharf along the Missis- sippi River in New Orleans’ historic Vieux CarrĂ©, the Aquarium of the Americas opened to record atten- dance in September, 1990. The surrounding fifteen- acre Woldenberg Riverfront Park was opened in fall, 1989. The Mathes Group is proud to have been one of the firms selected to form the joint venture, The Bienville Group, the team which conceived, designed, and completed the facility in less than four years. The design of the Aquarium was strongly influenced by the need to accommodate entire habitats that give visitors a view of the wild, both above and below the water. Each of the four large exhibits represents a major aquatic habitat of North or South America; a 500,000 gallon Gulf of Mexico exhibit, the Caribbean Reef Environment with a 30-foot long acrylic tunnel, the Amazon River Rain Forest Habitat, and the Mis- sissippi River and Delta Habitat. The Aquarium has thousands of examples of nearly 400 species of fish, reptiles, and other animals. The Aquarium also houses a seafood restaurant, a gift shop, classrooms, research labs, offices, and salinization equipment.

Mathes, AIA Project Architect: Peter F. Priola, AIA Ann Schmuelling, AIA General Brice Building Co., Inc. Contractor: The News Orleans Center for Creative Arts was established in 1973 as a "training center" for stu- dents in theater, music, dance, communications and the visual arts. It was seen as a part of a comprehensive education package being pro- posed to the State Department of Education and the Louisiana Legislature. Since 1973, housed in the LaSalle School in the 6000 block of Perrier Street, it has produced world famous perform- ers like Wynton Marsalis and Harry Connick, Jr. With the old building badly deteriorating and never providing suitable facilities, the School Board and the Friends of NOCCA set out to pro- vide an environment worthy of the center's repu- tation.

  • 17. N O C C A SITE SELECTION-A CASE STUDY NEW ORLEANS CENTER FOR CRE- ATIVE ARTS New Orleans Center for Creative Arts (NOCCA) spent several years search- ing for a site. Each site demanded a site analysis be made to determine if the architectural program could be ac- commodated at that particular site. In addition, Zoning and Building Codes imposed constraints upon each piece of property. At the same time, site analysis presents additional opportu- nities and/or constraints unique to each site. NOCCA considered numerous sites over many years before settling upon the chosen location just downtown fromthe French Quarter. The availability of a Western Electric manu- facturing facility (now a furniture store and ware- house) in Mid City prompted the original charrette in 1986 (coor- dinated by the late Ben Graves of Educational Facilities Laboratories). The Warehouse District re-de- velopment spurred by the 1984 World’s Fair produced a num- ber of candidates for adaptive re-use, as did the old U.S. Mint building on Esplanade Avenue at the north end of the French Quarter. New construction in City Park not far from the New Orleans Museum of Art proved to be an idle dream. However, when new construction on a empty lot ad- joining a Standard Coffee warehouse inspired a class project at Tulane Uni- versity School of Architecture, their imaginative view studies embraced vi- sual access to the Mississippi River and surrounding historic neighborhoods. The lot, however, proved too small for the instructional and architectural pro- gram and it was not available. This new interest of NOCCA in explor- ing areas ripe for neighborhood revi- talization and economic development
  • 18. nt ect- gh dge of the em b- now bit bili- ut ural sson he e of , g; not se s, to roach tive y along this light industrial and rail- way corridor bordering the river ul- timately resulted in discovering what has become its new address on Chartres Street, straddling the historic Faubourg Marigny and Bywater areas at the River. It is on the site of the old Cotton Steam Press warehouses, which had also served as passenger substations years ago when Homer Pleasy pur- chased his fateful trainticket amidst the cotton bales. Accessible to the Interstate (I-10) via Elysian Fields Avenue, this lo- cation allows NOCCA to continue its development as a center for the arts training for high school stu- dents commuting from the eight parish (county) metro-region of New Orleans. But, as much as this site was rea- sonable in cost (being partly do- nated by Southern Railways) and presented opportunities for the adaptive reuse of historically sig- nificant structures in historic neigh- borhoods, there were also problems to be dealt with. There are the obvious additional cost s in rehabilitating historic structures to accommodate present uses. There is a railroad track bisect- ing the property and there are high voltage lines running along the edge of the site. By creatively dealing with each of the “problems” and looking upon themas opportunities rather than “problems”, the unique so- lution that is now NOCCA evolved. Yes, it cost a bit more to satisfy the preservation au- thorities while adaptively reha- bilitating the existing ware- houses, but the students now get anarchitecturalhistorylessonand city history lesson by osmosis. The track, serving the wharves alongtheMississippi, teaches the eco- nomic importance of the port to the Cityand, theysay, trains will only run early in the morning and early in the evening; notenough to con- flict with normal use times for the facilities. The high voltage lines proved, after studies, to be a non- issue. The important message is to ap- proach available sites with posi- tive, creative thoughts. Solutions will generally appear. TMG

In the Fall of 1990, the Man- deville Street Wharf was offered to NOCCA as a possible site by the Board of Commissioners of the Port of New Or- leans. In December of 1990, the architects conducted a collo- quium to review the merits of this site as a location for the Cen- ter. However, in 1993, an alternate site was purchased by the NOCCA Institute. This site is on the Mississippi River in Fau- bourg Marigny, adjacent to the warf. We have developed the unique design in response to the site by incorporating several existing, wonderful warehouse buildings, in response to the program, by weaving all classrooms, studios and performance (Dance, Theater, an Ex- perimental Theatre, Recital Hall, Jazz Club and Art Gallery) spaces into a building which evokes the spontaneity and creativity of the students, and in response to the budget by utilizing ap- propriate materials and building sys- tems.
