New York’s First

Medical Marijuana Pharmacy

Commissioned by Columbia Care - New York, NY

New York's first medical marijuana pharmacy dispensary, COLUMBIA CARE, opened up in Manhattan on January 7, 2016. COLUMBIA CARE is reaching a new milestone in research and care for patients who can truly be helped with this therapy-- and also making a difference here on several levels through decriminalization and tax revenue for the state.

Evangeline Dennie was privileged to contribute to this new building prototype. She was an architectural interior design consultant on the first medical marijuana pharmacy in New York City by coordinating and co-creating all of the architectural interior design development drawing sets for Columbia Care's New York locations, as well as other states, including MA, IL, and CA. Her 15+ years of design expertise and leadership was utilized throughout the project by providing behind the scenes recommendations for lighting, furniture, finishes and other aspects of the interiors for the fixture and branding agency, beginning with spearheading the organization and implementation of professional standards for the architectural interior design development sets, for issuance to the architect of record, contractors and Columbia Care.  With large volumes of work, intense deadlines, and changing design standards from the Department of Health, Evan and her team were able to co-create a contemporary and organic space for the "historic" and intriguing new type of building space for public health in New York, the medical marijuana pharmacy.

She worked for BKSK on the design from schematics through development and coordinated the project's product specifications with AKF Engineers to make the Tribute Center as environmentally-friendly as possible.
