The façade’s expansive transparency frames sweeping views, fostering a sense of openness that connects the building to its environment. Bold and sculptural, the design plays with broad planes and asymmetric angles to create a striking presence. The athletic center honors Poly Prep’s storied 100-year history, while embodying the school’s commitment to innovation and forward-thinking excellence. With facilities that reflect the caliber of Poly Prep’s athletic programs, the center stands as a testament to both tradition and progress. The comprehensive program includes a reconfigurable full-court gym, an 11,000 sq. ft. wrestling area, a 12,500 sq. ft. squash center featuring six international courts, including two all-glass competition courts, along with concessions, locker rooms, staff offices, and a spectator mezzanine. The Novogratz Center’s design maximizes transparency through strategically placed glass, creating a dynamic focal point at the heart of campus life. This contemporary architectural statement not only invites participation and engagement with its athletics but also harmoniously connects the building to the existing gymnasium and the broader campus context, marking a bold, new chapter in Poly Prep’s legacy.

The program required that the existing, outdated, irregularly shaped structure be salvaged and transformed into an integrated, sustainable, and welcoming presence at the field—incorporating concession stands, public toilets, and park storage. This new structure readily identifies this recreational green space to the Roosevelt Island community. A separate structure (sitting above the existing structure) supports a green roof, a focal point of an array of sustainable design strategies implemented. The 1,600 SF roof, designed to support plant loads, tips upward like a bird’s wing, creating a strong aesthetic and a counterpoint to the synthetic turf field. The sloped roof hosts an extensive vegetation system featuring a sedum plant mix that sustains all-seasons growth and helps manage stormwater, mitigate air pollution, provide wildlife habitat, foster biodiversity, and reduce urban heat island effects. Our design strategy leveraged the structure’s atypical footprint to express an artful, unique form for this public building that features an asymmetrical green roof Recycled weathered cladding defines the exterior of the building. New energy-efficient light fixtures brighten the site and new plumbing fixtures reduce water use and waste. The brightly colored underside of the canopy structure is a beacon, leading people to the park. JLGA collaborated with landscape design firm Abel Bainnson & Butz, who designed the new Jack McManus Field and Park. The design added over 1,300 shrubs, new trees, ornamental grasses, and perennials, which together shape a lush urban oasis.

The center includes dedicated areas for cardio and weight training, along with fitness studios for yoga, dance, and spinning. Additional renovations feature a conference room, locker facilities, and a reconfiguration of the security, reception, and entry areas, alongside upgraded mechanical systems. To address the space’s tight dimensions and low ceiling heights, JLGA employed strategic mirrors and a light color palette, visually expanding the interior and enhancing its openness. The redesign also revitalizes the building’s exterior with expansive glass elements that punctuate the previously solid brick façade. This not only floods the interior with natural light but also highlights the center’s activity, attracting attention from passersby.

Located on the site of the former Steeplechase Amusement Park and next to the iconic Parachute Jump tower, this stadium serves as the home for a Minor League Single-A baseball team affiliated with the New York Mets. Completed in time for the 2001 season, the stadium includes seating for 6,500, luxury suites, food services, retail concessions, and more, transforming the site into a state-of-the-art sports and entertainment venue. JLGA’s design bridges Surf Avenue and the Riegelmann Boardwalk, offering a contemporary facility that honors Coney Island’s cultural heritage while opening doors to future commercial development. The stadium is equipped for baseball games, concerts, and various events, with features such as 12 luxury suites, locker rooms, press boxes, and ample parking for 1,240 vehicles. Maimonides Park excels in balancing modern amenities with respect for its surroundings. It preserves neighborhood harmony by maintaining public access to the beach, boardwalk, and Steeplechase Pier, and strengthens the connection to the historic Parachute Jump. This thoughtfully designed venue not only elevates the community but also attracts private investment, reinvigorating the waterfront just minutes from millions of people. Jack L. Gordon Architects is proud to announce that KeySpan Park Stadium has been selected as a finalist in the prestigious 2002 BusinessWeek/Architectural Record "Good Design is Good Business" Awards. This coveted award recognizes outstanding designs that have successfully reinforced a client's business objectives.

Rose Hill Gym Renovation

At the heart of the transformation was the replacement of the original hardwood basketball court which had experienced deterioration of the existing structural slab beneath. This led to the design and installation of a new concrete foundation, engineered not only for stability but also to discreetly house a complex network of electrical, fire alarm, and advanced AV systems. Every element was coordinated with remnants of legacy infrastructure, ensuring a seamless transition to modern performance standards. Above this intricate substructure, a new NCAA-rated court flooring was laid, carefully selected through extensive research into manufacturer options. The court’s striking striping pattern—featuring Fordham branding, logos, and broadcast-optimized text—was developed in collaboration with university leadership, designed to enhance visibility and impact during televised games. The AV overhaul included recessed floor boxes, a newly expanded control room, and future-ready conduit systems embedded within the slab to allow for long-term technological growth. Enhancements continued beyond the court with upgraded lighting in entryways and stairwells, along with custom millwork that elevates transitional spaces. Executed under a tight summer deadline, the project is a testament to thoughtful design, technical precision, and Fordham’s ongoing commitment to excellence in collegiate athletics.

JLGA led the conceptual design of the stadium and its 55-acre site, including the innovative, operable domed roof and a roll-out natural turf field, allowing the venue to adapt to various functions like concerts. JLGA’s work included designing the moving components of the stadium, such as the roof and playing field, and determining optimal seating configurations and sightlines for arena events. Additionally, JLGA conducted a feasibility study for the development of the Shea Stadium site, focusing on parking, road improvements, and necessary approvals. Sustainability was a core aspect, with advanced wastewater management, extensive plantings (including 700 new trees), and environmentally conscious construction practices like recycling demolition materials and using low-sulfur diesel fuel. JLGA also collaborated with the Metropolitan Transit Authority to enhance subway access and designed a subtle security perimeter, balancing safety with the fan experience. Approval from multiple city agencies, including the NYC Department of Parks and Recreation, NYCEDC, and the NYPD, was integral to the project’s success.

This 8.4-acre, multi-use complex repurposes four historic airplane hangars into a 150,000 sq. ft. indoor sports facility, featuring two regulation-size hockey rinks, a versatile gymnasium, gymnastics center, fitness area, and indoor climbing wall. Outside, 200,000 sq. ft. of synthetic turf fields accommodate soccer, football, and lacrosse, designed to NCAA standards. The site also includes landscaping, parking, and stadium seating. The fields were built atop the existing tarmac, preserving the site’s historical integrity and minimizing demolition. The design seamlessly blends the hangars’ historic forms with modern amenities, creating a unique sports venue that celebrates Floyd Bennett Field’s history while meeting the needs of today’s athletes. Sustainability is a cornerstone of the project, with natural lighting, reduced light pollution, and a high-efficiency cogeneration plant that delivers heat and energy at an impressive 89% efficiency.

This synthetic turf men’s baseball field is designed to seat 500 spectators. Player and fan amenities include covered dugouts, public restrooms and a press box. JLGA designed the baseball field on a fast-track schedule and provided features including a video platform, public announcement system and scoreboard. More recently, JLGA was selected by Fordham University to perform a comprehensive renovation of the 158,000 sq. ft. Bahoshy Softball Complex and Murphy Field. At the Bahoshy Softball Complex, JLGA introduced a new synthetic turf surface with a regulation clay infield, enhanced practice amenities including a dedicated pitching warm-up area and batting cages, and improved site infrastructure such as perimeter fencing, field branding, and sport-specific markings. Murphy Field underwent a significant transformation with the installation of a new synthetic turf system, updated perimeter fencing, and integrated branding and field markings tailored for football and soccer. To meet regulation size requirements for collegiate soccer, JLGA widened the field and designed a new retaining wall and drainage system to support the expanded footprint. These renovations not only elevated the performance and usability of Fordham’s athletic fields but also reflected JLGA’s commitment to creating high-quality, durable, and regulation-compliant collegiate sports environments.

Originally built in the 1980s, the stadium now boasts modern amenities, including shaded picnic terraces, bermed seating with concessions, and expanded locker rooms. A new suite level with private suites and open-air party terraces elevates the fan experience. Among the standout features is a cutting-edge wet training suite, equipped with Hydroworx aquatic therapy and fitness pools, designed to enhance athlete rehabilitation and training. The renovation was completed within a fast-tracked six-month timeline. The overhaul also includes a reimagined exterior, new entrance plaza, and a sustainable stormwater management system that integrates the surrounding wetlands. These improvements, along with a full rehabilitation area, reinforce the stadium as a premier training and recovery hub for the Mets.
