Cooper, Robertson & Partners was founded in 1979 on the ambitious premise that the pursuit of excellence in both architecture and urban design could best serve its clients' needs while meeting its own professional goals. The New York-based firm provides design, programming, and development advisory services for private clients, cultural and academic institutions, public agencies, entertainment companies and developers of new communities. Recent projects include the plan for Hudson Yards in Manhattan, the new Battlefield Museum and Visitor's Center at Gettysburg National Military Park, master plans for the medical centers at John Hopkins and Columbia Presbyterian, and waterfront master plans for Detroit, Chula Vista, Miami, and Memphis. This monograph examines the firm's architectural and urban design projects, clearly demonstrating why it is the first firm ever to receive the National American Institute of Architects Award in both architecture and urban design in the same year.
