Ellenzweig

Ellenzweig is a sustainability minded architecture and planning firm focused on science, engineering and medical health education located in Boston, MA.

Ellenzweig is a 50-person architecture firm in Boston that provides full architectural design and lab planning services. Harry Ellenzweig founded the firm in 1965; his initial commissions with Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Harvard University launched a focus on science research and teaching facilities. Ellenzweig has completed projects for clients that include health and life sciences

institutions and more than 100 colleges and universities. The firm has earned a national reputation for innovative, technically sophisticated designs—buildings that are highly sustainable and functional, yet also humane and uplifting for their users.

When Yale University decided to relocate its neuroscience and psychology disciplines into new facilities at 100 College Street, the University enlisted Ellenzweig to unify various departments that had been scattered across its campus into a single, cohesive environment conducive to interdisciplinary collaboration. Our mission was to enhance both physical and intellectual connections. The result was the renovation of over 140,000 square feet of existing office space into cutting-edge research labs, offices, and collaboration spaces. In partnership with Vanderweil Engineers, we designed interconnected labs that are efficient, flexible, and adhere to the highest sustainability standards. The building now accommodates departments from the School of Medicine along with the Wu Tsai Institute, a University initiative established in 2021 to further research into human cognition. With the recent dedication of 100 College Street, Yale has further strengthened its position as a leader in the bioscience sector.

Ellenzweig is proud to support this year’s New England Women’s Leadership Awards given by the Boys & Girls Clubs of Dorchester. Congratulations to members of NEWLA event committee, who included Ellenzweig’s Kara Dunne and Gesse Faber, and the BGCD members and staff for an inspiring evening that supports the work of the Clubs. This year’s awards celebrated three incredible women--Cara Belvin, Founder and CEO of Empower; Allison Feaster, VP of Team Operations of the Boston Celtics; and Huong Vu, Family Engagement Specialist of BGCD--each recognized for their significant contributions as role models for the next generation of women leaders.

At last weekend’s Girl Scouts of Eastern Massachusetts STEM Fest, Ellenzweig hosted a table where over 60 from Daisies through Cadettes eagerly tackled building their own houses which then became part of an ever-expanding and collaborative neighborhood of their own design. It was truly inspiring and a load of fun to see the skill and intense focus of these budding architects as they assembled their houses from cut-out patterns and creatively decorated them before carefully picking the perfect spot for their house in the neighborhood.

Thank you to Ellenzweigers Jeanne Roberts, Eric Mitchell, Wendy Morita, Tina Binazir, and Gesse Faber for organizing and leading our activity. And a big thank you to GSEMA staff and volunteers who made the event possible.

To mark Day this year, we invited six vendors to the office to showcase their new and innovative earth-friendly architectural products. During this mini in-house trade show, we all had the opportunity to speak with reps from each of these companies to learn about their products, which ranged from interior wood surfaces made from recycled chopsticks and lighting fixtures using all natural materials to eco-friendly flooring, ceiling panels, paints, stains, and exterior glass.

Thank you to Kathleen Barron from Building & Design Resources for organizing the event and the six vendors who participated:

Armstrong Ceiling Solutions
ChopValue Boston
Duracryl Global Flooring
Illuminate New England
KEIM Mineral Paints

We are excited to be participating in the Girl Scouts of Eastern Massachusetts's STEM Fest this Saturday, April 27! We will be introducing the field of architecture to the participants through a hands-on, collaborative activity of designing and building their own dream neighborhood, town, or city. Come join us!

Ellenzweig’s Peter Herman and Jacob Werner join with Valerie Fletcher from the Institute for Human Centered Design to lead an interactive session at the upcoming SCUP 2024 North Atlantic Conference in Boston that explores how thoughtful, inclusive design can transform teaching and research environments for the betterment of all.

Labs are the original active learning spaces but they lag behind other academic environments in providing inclusivity and accessibility. This session will explore practical ideas for enabling inclusion and anticipating a broader reality of disability, which will allow colleges and universities to further student success and career access in STEM fields.

Ellenzweig's Jacob Werner is an invited speaker at the upcoming 18th CDC International Symposium on Biosafety in Atlanta, March 10-14, focused on modernizing biosafety operations and practices in laboratories. As part of the day’s theme of “The Modern Workplace,” on Tuesday, March 12, Jacob will give a presentation and lead a workshop that discusses reducing energy and implementing sustainability measures in the design of labs without compromising safety.

We came together last week to share in some holiday cheer, celebrate our 2023 successes, and toast our new president Neil Cahalane, who is succeeding outgoing president Michael Lauber (who is really looking forward to focusing on his project work.)

And during a lively Yankee swap, it became clear that the laser measuring tool was a must-have for many of our staff as it quickly became the most swapped-for item!

We are delighted to announce that Neil Cahalane, AIA, FRIAI, has been appointed President of Ellenzweig. With more than 30 years of service to the firm as a principal and design and management leader, Neil has completed some of our largest and most complex science and engineering projects for colleges and universities. He will assume this new role beginning January 1, 2024.

“I am excited to take on this new leadership role in the firm as we collectively continue on our course for the future, one that builds on our success as design innovators, thoughtful and committed collaborators, and passionate stewards of the planet,” said Neil Cahalane. “It is a future I look forward to sharing with our clients, my colleagues, and our industry partners.”

Neil succeeds Michael Lauber, FAIA, who served as President for 15 years and will remain a principal with the firm, continuing his project work. During Michael’s tenure, the firm built on its long history of design excellence and innovation in academic science and engineering facilities while significantly expanding its expertise in the areas of engineering, marine science, and health sciences for colleges and universities, as well as commercial life sciences facilities.

“Known for developing and managing relationships, Neil is an astute consensus builder,” said Michael Lauber. “Neil’s design acumen and strengths as an effective, diplomatic communicator promise a strong future for the firm.”

Congratulations Neil!

Nearing completion, our conversion of an office building into lab facilities for 300 biomedical researchers is connected to a new addition for a cGMP manufacturing facility by a daylit atrium. The variegated copper-colored fins animate the façade of the addition as well as serve to visually unify the two components.
