Mixed Use Building

Condominium & Retail
Williamsburg, Brooklyn

Located at a prominent intersection in Brooklyn’s Williamsburg neighborhood, the mixed-use building was designed for a Brooklyn based developer and is a contemporary interpretation of a well established New York City building type. The minimalist façade of light brick stands out with its rhythmic arrangement of tall, black-framed windows. On the ground floor, fully glazed commercial spaces with transparent storefronts open onto the street, activating the public space and reinforcing the urban character of the site.

Constructed on an unusual and difficult triangular plot of land, the building takes full advantage of the disproportionately large street frontage and shallow plot depth allowing for interiors, which are illuminated from two directions. The natural light flooding through the large floor-to-ceiling windows combined with 10 foot tall interiors make the apartments feel much more specious than their footprints would suggest. This is particularly true of the duplexes with their generous, open stairs and landscaped terraces opening to spectacular views of Manhattan.
