Falmouth Marina
Falmouth, Massachusetts - Cape Cod
The Town of Falmouth on Cape Cod’s Buzzard Bay owns and operates
a public pleasure boat marina on the inner harbor. Through the public design
review process we were chosen to design a new multi-purpose building on
the Falmouth Harbor replacing a smaller harbormaster’s office.
The expanded building program was accommodated
within a compact plan to maintain the residential scale of the previous
building at the site. The harbormaster’s office has been placed
at the front of the building for visual control over the activities
on the harbor. Behind it are reception and administration spaces
for the marina, and shower and toilet facilities for marina patrons.
On the side facing the Town Common, toilets are accessible to
the public. This cost-efficient design was constructed during
the marina's off-season and placed in operation the following
spring.
