Reading School Building Committee
Architect Selection Subcommittee
Memorandum
To: Members of the School Building Committee
Fr: Richard Radville
Date: May 14, 2002
The subcommittee has completed its review of the Architect's submittals. In preparation for Tuesday's
meeting, we want to ask for your help in a final evaluation step.
We have strong agreement on the top three candidates. These are:
Design Partnership
Flansburgh Associates
HMFH
After those three, the evaluations of the subcommittee varied somewhat. The following three firs
were ranked highly by two members of the committee,but not by the third member.
Tappe Associates
Strekalovsky and Hoit
DRA
Further detailed group discussion on these three firs changed their rankings somewhat,but also
brought a fourth firm into contention—The Office of Michael Rosenfeld.
The result is that we have the top three firs and four others that we could consider for the fourth
interview slot. We request that all members of the committee take some time prior to Tuesday to
review the proposals from these four firs, and be prepared to discuss the merits of each:
Tappe Associates
Strekalovsky and Hoit
DRA
The Office of Michael Rosenfeld
The subcommittee is going to try to check references on all 7 firs this week.
