The Miller/Fox

The Smithsonian Institution’s Cooper-Hewitt National Design Museum (CHNDM) is renovating its “Miller/Fox” building completely. The Miller/Fox building is part of the CHNDM located at 2 E. 91st St, New York City, New York. Originally a two 5-story townhome facing E. 90th St, constructed in the late 1800 & early 1900’s, they were purchased by the Smithsonian Institution (SI) and connected to each other and to the Carnegie Mansion building in the 1990’s. The 37,000 SF building was used to store the museum’s extensive collection of design objects.

JMKON team has strategically incorporated measures to ensure the coordination of trades, especially when operating within an occupied structure. This involves meticulous planning to safeguard existing building elements that are to remain, both of historic and non-historic significance.
