“Marygate” York...

#ODA are engaged to produce the structural and civil engineering design and detailing for a bespoke residential housing project in the centre of historic York, which our appointment was with Fining Associates - https://www.architectsyork.com/

The site on Marygate is adjacent to the medieval walls and is located in the grounds of the old Post Office social club property which is subject to a separate development.

The project comprises of the design of a block of four, individual houses of three stories, along with a single, smaller house.

An existing storage barn type building on the site originally to be two further houses, is now to be the subject of conversion into one large dwelling for a single client.

ODAS have been involved in the project from day one advising on all aspects of civil and structural engineering from foundations to superstructure to drainage.

It is a very constrained site and close co-operation with the adjoining property owners has been fundamental in the design process.
