Mr. Ponisi was a dream to work with. He fought a David and Goliath battle with the Parks Department, but unfortunately it was a battle we all just couldn't win. (A legal issue prevented us from moving forward with the project in mind.) He was gracious and upbeat throughout, keeping us informed every step of the way. Thank you! Mr. Ponisi did not just go the extra mile, he went the extra TEN miles. We would absolutely hire him in the future, and recommend him whole-heartedly!
Description of Work: Mr. Ponisi waged a David and Goliath battle with the Parks Department for us. Unfortunately, Parks won, and we were unable to go ahead with the work.

Chris made the process unbelievable. We did not have to get involved in any of the particulars regarding permits and exchanging paperwork with the department of buildings. He was always on top of our job and knew exactly what status it was in at all times. Our job is done in less than a year from meeting with him for the first time in March 2012. The job was started in June of 2012 and we received our Certificate of Occupancy in February 2013.
Description of Work: Chris is an outstanding, trustworthy and honest Architect. He was highly recommended to us. He came over to give us an estimate on how much taking us on would be. He took us through every step, explaining to us what was next and what was to come and how much each step would cost. At first my husband and I thought that a dormer to our house was all we needed in order to add a third bedroom to our second floor, but Chris explained that doing that would not be the best option for us in the long run. We would have been left with a fairly flat house, which Chris explained would not be the best use of our money. He explained to us that doing it correctly, which was a full roof raise on our cape would be more beneficial. This left us with three bedrooms, a bathroom, ample closets and a stand up attic which has made our living conditions exactly what we wanted and helps with the future resale value of the house. With that he also recommended contractors who he personally called and asked them to look at our job and give free estimates. Chris listened to everything we wanted and needed for the addition. He made our cape into a colonial. He came by and looked at the job a few times, which is not what a typical architect would do. We could not have asked for a better architect. We recommend him to everyone. He knows his stuff:)
