SKE+CHED with Leong Leong
In this episode, Chris Leong and Dominic Leong, partners at Leong Leong Architects, will discuss their work on The Ray, located at 1525 North American Street in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

The sentiment of protecting neighborhood still pervades despite differences. Learn more
