Pyatok Architects, Inc. was selected by the University to take part in the initial Feasibility Study and the subsequent Design/Build Competition to redevelop its existing family housing and student services center at University Village in Albany. Over $100 million in construction value, 920 townhomes and flats were organized into 8 neighborhoods, clustering families into small courts with no more than 25 families in each. The solution included phasing plans which allowed continuous use of The Village providing a minimum of 750 functioning units. A network of auto free green spaces connect the neighborhoods to the Village Center while all of the Village's streets are lined with trellised front porches and bay windows.
