Alex Shuey on Building and Being with the Existing
Thursday, 4 February, 2021

How do you decide what to renovate or rebuild. Should you tear it down? What makes a building worth preserving? We ask the architect Alex Shuey who is a project leader with a renovation and resotration firm in New York City. He is a graduate of the architecture program at University of North Carolina Charlotte and has worked in Nova Scotia, where we met. He is another friend on the show and very happy to be able to talk to him more about what he has been up to. This podcast was recorded in a quite echo-y room. So we will have to not do that again, hmmm? We also get into some more self-initiated projects like a renovation of a farm in Western Pennsylvania and a micro-gallery in Chelsea.
