PROJECT SPOTLIGHT
F.J. Rawding, AIA, is partnering with Mayo Performing Arts Center (MPAC) on a transformative expansion of this 87-year-old cultural landmark in downtown Morristown. The 31,000-square-foot, five-story addition introduces an intimate performance theater, gallery, front lobby and essential back-of-house spaces including new loading docks, green rooms and rehearsal areas. It also features upgraded patron amenities like an expanded Starlight Lounge and a dedicated arts and education level for youth programming.
The design includes a bilevel parking garage to improve accessibility while preserving the historic South Street façade. This expansion strengthens MPAC’s role in Morristown’s arts community and supports continued growth for the surrounding downtown.
OUR ADVANTAGE
At F. J. Rawding, AIA, our strength lies in tailoring each design to the unique needs of our clients — especially in club and hospitality projects, where precision and attention to detail are essential. This same focus on detail and responsiveness defines all our work, from commercial interiors to residential developments.
With a deep understanding of how design impacts construction, we bring thoughtful solutions, clear communication and technical excellence to every project. It’s this client-focused, detail-driven approach that has earned us a loyal base of repeat clients who trust our work.
ON THE HORIZON
Looking ahead, our firm continues to build on longstanding partnerships with premier private clubs across the Northeast, delivering master planning and architectural design for clubhouses, amenity spaces and maintenance facilities.
Our hospitality work is also growing, with several restaurant renovations and expansions underway. In the commercial sector, we are designing financial and wealth management offices, bringing function and refinement to client-facing spaces.
We’re also advancing several mixed-use residential developments, including a project in a designated redevelopment zone with direct NJ Transit access. Designed for modern, connected living, the development features under-building parking, elevator, a business center, fitness facilities and rooftop amenities.
