Bernardon Architecture worked with Longwood Gardens on its international horticultural programming following the acquisition of the Gallagher Winery estate. Neither the winery nor the residence had complete existing drawings.

Longwood needed a record of both buildings to plan improvements to the winery and adapt the residence as temporary accommodation for visiting participants — while considering historical features, accessibility, and potential mechanical, electrical, and plumbing upgrades.

Coreskan scanned both structures using Leica BLK laser scanning and Matterport imaging, capturing visible historic timber and structural detail with particular care. A drone survey supported façade review for early cracking or spalling, roof assessment, a 3D exterior model, and an orthomosaic for site and parking planning. Coreskan also documented MEP assets and coordinated access around an occupant in the residence, including off-hours work.

The approximately two- to two-and-a-half-day capture produced a registered point cloud, an LOD 300 Revit model, and 2D drawings — including site plans and reflected ceiling plans — in approximately sixteen to seventeen business days of processing. The model also supported detailed interior layouts and design visualization.

Services

Services Delivered

Seven coordinated services across the winery and residence, produced from a single captured baseline.

3D Virtual Tours

Remote documentation of the residence and winery.

02

3D Laser Scanning

Measured architecture and historic structural features.

03

Aerial Mapping & Inspection

Façades, roofing, a site orthomosaic, and a 3D exterior model.

04

Scan-to-BIM

An LOD 300 Revit model supporting architectural and interior design.

05

CAD Deliverables

Site and architectural drawings.

06

As-Built Documentation

A baseline record of both existing buildings.

07

Custom Scope Solutions

MEP asset reporting and façade-condition support.

Outcome

A Verified Starting Point

Bernardon and Longwood gained a coordinated basis for renovation, accessibility, and interior planning without relying on missing or outdated drawings.

Informed Design Discussions

The survey supported design discussions involving building systems, circulation, and site grades.

A Record with a Longer Life

The completed existing-conditions package was retained by Longwood and submitted to the township for historical reference.
