winner winner chicken dinner, this building, both this and Brooklyn Pointe have great facades
I like that its not flat on any sides, unlike 8 Spruce.
This Architectural design does everything right in terms of function: and still manages to pull off a beautiful form. Function: ‘punch windows’ instead of full glass curtain walls - interior spaces feel enclosed, rather than ‘exposed’. Function: large windows to maximize natural light coming in, and views looking out. Function: thick masonry exterior walls - the ‘enclosure’ and or ‘cocoon’ factor for the interior spaces. Form: a beauty of a building - the curves, the facets, the light colored and solid stone facade. The design overall has style and class; the gang knows what they are doing - good design.
It looks like a non-anally expulsive Gehry, that is to say something with some restraint and elegance.
Teaser site is updated.
Also, floor plans available along with overview of this development.
Underwhelming floorplans. All of them have entrances that go straight to bedrooms, which isn’t ideal.
I looked at lots of the plans. Most of the ones I saw are not drawn with BR entrances close to and directly ahead of front doors. The dimensions are small but the layouts seem ok.
You’re right, it’s the 2BR floorplans that don’t.
Nice pictures.
Personally I think this is turning out better than 8 Spruce Street across the river.
