Demo plans, floor plans, roofing plans, elevations, sections and details, site plan Roc's Comments: There was a famous old Bar harbor mansion along the shore path that became a white elephant in the 60's and was cut in half. Each half was sold as a separate building. The Scotts, a wonderful older couple from Philadelphia (?) asked us to renovate their half into a more livable summer home. Jeffry Wright and I took on the task with enthusiasm. The carpentry contractors Bond Builders had previously added a colonial addition to the Frenchman Bay side of the half structure that was perfectly functional and paid for. We did not want to intrude on some of the fabulous Queen Ann/ shingle style remaining structure so we created a very complicated addition that appeared consistent with the Queen Ann appearance of the Western or entrance side of the building and consistent with the "colonial" appearance of the Frenchman's Bay Eastern facade. I think it worked and the Scotts were delighted.

Sketch, floor plans Roc's Comments: Tom Walsh was a self made man who grew up in Bangor and eventually became an extremely successful Hotel developer with projects all over the country. He was disliked by the local Bar Harbor establishment because he bought the defunct Bar Harbor club, renovated it and built a new motel (not the most attractive thing but better than its predecessor). He hired me to help him gain planning board permission, design additions that were not built on the Thorndike Residence (a good thing) and prepare an accessibility report for the state describing every ADA function available in his new motel. I do not understand why local citizens dislike his efforts. He was a nice man and asked only for work done to the highest standards and I liked him.

site plan, floor plans, elevations, sections, construction details, electrical, mechanical. plumbing, heating, landscape photographs are of a 3-D model Roc's comments: Gates was the first project we did for COA when I was still in Philly working with Lyman Perry. We went to an interview and were chosen to design one single small dormitory/ home for something like 8-12 students. It was never built. But a few years later the college asked for the larger dorm that resulted in B/T.

Foundation plan, floor plans, elevations, sketches Roc's Comments: Rick and Linda Savage asked me to design a new home for them on land near the Brown Mountain Gatehouse. They had a traditional "colonial cape " style "big house/little house/back house/barn" form and we made it work with their 20th century program. Very nice people and it was an honor to work with them.

Site plan, demolition plan, foundation plans and details, floor plans, roofing plans and details, elevations, sections and details, plumbing, heating, lighting, sketches Roc's Comments: Jan Russell and her husband had a nice old early 20th century white clapboard farmhouse. They were introduced to me by Jan's brother, David Milliken. David worked for me briefly years earlier and we got along well. The Russells wanted an expanded home and we wanted to create a project that both accommodated their need to expand and ultimately looked like it had always been there. I think we accomplished that quite well as most people did not notice the change. Bob Bond was the builder. As an interesting side note. The Russells hired Dennis Bracale to do some landscaping and he volunteered to do a further expansion on their home. The work was done by Steve Demers a former COA design student who later worked in our office on the Gilley Museum project. So the Russell house has become a two generation project. I think Steve did a fine job.
