"Behind the Design" is a webisode series that features CSArch team members telling stories about how we plan, design and construct buildings for our clients.

In this video we dive deeper into our historic renovation project at the University at Albany's downtown campus. The transformation of the original 1912 Albany High School into a state-of-the-art College of Nanotechnology, Science and Engineering provides educational and research spaces that will advance workforce development. Watch how our architects and engineers worked together to solve complex design problems while maintaining the historic signifigance of the building.
