Buffalo, NY Carmina Wood Morris, DPC (CWM) have completed numerous historic preservation projects, propelling the firm to be known as preservation specialists. One of their latest projects, the circa 1917 White Building at 298 Main St., is another example of how the firm earned their title. Partnering with the Kissling Interests LLC, CWM worked to receive approvals from NYS Historic Preservation Office and National Parks Service to list the building on the National Register and secure Historic Preservation Tax Credits for the owner. The interior design staff at CWM presented 3-D design renderings, materials, and fixture selections for the lobby and common areas to the Kissling’s team for approval, resulting in a blend of natural white marble, porcelain, and limestone that seamlessly create an open and inviting entrance. The apartments were designed for a live and work atmosphere, with flex space created by Raydoors (a clear sliding interior dividing wall), that will suit the needs of incoming downtown residents. Once complete, the 11-story brick and concrete building will be transformed into 26 apartments, with retail space on the first floor.

Carmina Wood Morris has developed a distinct reputation for their design and technical skills.

The principals of CWM: Steven Carmina, AIA;  Christopher Wood, PE; Jonathan Morris, AIA; Pamela Timby-Straitiff, CID IIDA; and Michael Bray, AIA; credit the success of their firm to the attention to detail, aesthetics, and service given to each project and client. They are a dynamic team collaborating to achieve innovative solutions, grounded in core values, respected in their profession and community.
