Salem Harbor Station / COOKFOX

The Salem Harbor Station, built between 1948 and 1951, is a coal fired power station which occupies a 65-acre site in Salem, Massachusetts. One of the region’s dirtiest coal- and oil-burning power generators, the 748 megawatt station sits within the historical maritime hub of Salem’s waterfront. The facility is topped by three towering smokestacks that pierce the skyline, and can be seen from many parts of Salem as well as the neighboring communities of Beverly and Marblehead.

Historic Front Street / COOKFOX

The South Street Seaport in lower Manhattan has a long history that has left a great impression on the economic development of New York City. Once a hub for the thriving shipping, dry goods and grocery industry, it has since turned into a space for public gathering with entertainment, retail, restaurants, water taxi stands and a venue for summer concerts. In between the demise of the exporting industry for the port and its reemergence as a cultural landmark, the historic brick warehouse buildings of the area were suffering from decades of decay and neglect. Cook + Fox Architects were among the firms that contributed to the massive effort required to revive the neighborhood. Eleven historic buildings along Front Street were transformed as part of this effort in 2006.

This interior design project from 2006 by Cook + Fox Architects is the first LEED Platinum certified project in New York. It is an office space in one of New York City's early 20th Century skyscrapers, one that still has much of its architectural details intact, along with some new features that make it a sustainable factor within the city's urban terrain.
