AP154.S1.1965.PR01
Description:
Project series AP154.S1.1965.PR01, Intensive Therapy Center for Infants, Willowbrook State School, Staten Island, New York (1965), documents an executed project for a 30,000-square-foot addition to the Willowbrook State School, an institution built in the 1930s as a residential facility for individuals with developmental disabilities. According to a 1969 report to the Governor, the Intensive Therapy Center for Infants represented an effort to increase therapeutic options at facilities like Willowbrook in light of new concepts for the care of its clientele. The Center introduced spaces for training, recreation and other program activities that were absent from the four ward buildings to which it was connected. The project series contains a complete set of working drawings dated May 5, 1967.
