Bishop Boardman Residences

Bishop Boardman is a senior housing facility operated by Catholic Charities of Brooklyn and Queens, a nonprofit organization which Gallin has been privileged to work with on several occasions. For this renovation, designed by Tobin Parnes Architects, Gallin upgraded the entire front entryway including canopy with all new finishes of glass, stone and lighting along with sliding doors. Inside, the ground floor common areas received a major refresh with geometric acoustic ceiling tiles, enhanced lighting, stylish room dividers, glass walls, and an updated HVAC system. White marble flooring and dark wood accents give the spaces a polished elegance. Gallin also upgraded the elevator cabs as well as the hallways on all six floors. For the comfort and safety of their senior population, work was phased to minimize disruption, and HEPA filters were used to curtail dust.
