Congratulations to the Woda Cooper Companies, Inc. team on the closing and groundbreaking of Smithfield Lofts!

It was exciting to celebrate alongside community partners as this catalytic Downtown Pittsburgh project officially moves forward. Overlooking the Smithfield Street Bridge and the Monongahela River, this stately, historic building is being reimagined into 46 new homes, along with two renovated floors of office space, bringing new life, energy, and opportunity Downtown.

Reusing historic buildings is vital to preserving the fabric of a city, and it's also much more sustainable than demolishing them. But it's also tough! One of the recurring challenges for building reuse Downtown is bringing them up to modern building codes. At Smithfield Lofts, this meant hiding an 11-story stair in the lightwell, while both preserving the historic structure and maintaining the natural light and views that make the building so remarkable.

Proud to be part of the team helping write the next chapter for this incredible Pittsburgh landmark!

Last week, Ryan Lipscomb and Mike Gwin of Rothschild Doyno Collaborative attended the Living Future 2026 Conference in Seattle: "Designing the Next 100 Years", and shared progress on our project in Lahaina.

More than a green building, it's a model for designing with local communities in the wake of a disaster while honoring long-term cultural and ecological stewardship rather than short-term solutions.

The conference reinforced a few important concepts. Real progress, as Mr. Rogers described, comes from looking for the helpers—ordinary people doing quiet, unglamorous work. It also comes from making architecture not just sustainable, but regenerative.

Thanks to the community at , sustainable practices are becoming more accessible to all. It's our duty as designers to make regenerative thinking the new normal, not the exception.
