Berlin Township Municipal Shared Services Center
West Berlin, New Jersey
In early 2007, Garrison Architects was commissioned by Berlin Township to do a Feasibility Study in order for the Township to replace their recently condemned and demolished municipal building. The analysis included criteria such as the evaluation of alternate schemes which included site accessibility, site circulation, site ownership, environmental impacts, parcel size and configuration, availability of utilities, proximity to the town center, site visibility/civic image, land use compatibility and ease of approvals. In addition, Garrison Architects was asked to create a design concept embracing shared services center and consider surrounding community service needs within the new planned facility.

Township of Medford New Municipal Building and Library
Medford, New Jersey
Garrison Architects was selected from a number of NJ firms to develop a building program and design a new library to replace the Pinelands branch of the Burlington County System.
The new 2-story, 23,000 SF building was constructed by Arthur J. Ogren, Inc. which included preservation of a historic house also located on the site. The Township bonded most of the funds and will also be applying for a grant from the State Library Fund to offset some costs. The new building will feature a technology room, reading room, theater area, children’s library, study spaces and a small café. The municipal offices will be located on the Second Floor and provide much needed space from their current downtown location. Construction will be complete March 21, 2021.

Sea Isle City Hall
Sea Isle City, New Jersey
Garrison Architects was commissioned in February of 2012 to provide the city with an overall facilities study that included evaluations of city and municipal public safety and public works facilities.
In October of 2012 Hurricane Sandy flooded City Hall and the Public Safety Building causing City operations to move to the Sea Isle City Public School building.
Following several planning sessions in the fall and winter, City Council authorized the design of a new City Hall to be constructed on the footprint of the existing Public Safety Building. This new building would have all functions previously operated out of the original City Hall along with the Municipal Court, Construction Office, Police Department and volunteer Fire Department operations.
A new 35,000 SF 4-Story building over a covered garage was successfully bid and awarded to Hessert Construction of Marlton, New Jersey for $11.7M, under the $12 M estimated construction budget.
Garrison Architects and its consulting engineers began administration of the construction contract in June 2014 and continued to provide these services until May 2015 when the building opened for public use.
