NEW YORK | LOW-RISE / GENERAL Development News + Construction

Now I wouldn’t get too excited yet because we all know the NIMBY’S (Clowns) will be complaining about how it doesn’t have enough affordable housing or the building is too tall. They’ll might even put a lawsuit and say it will block there view even though they probably live in Queens, NJ or Brooklyn…

This had a lot of interesting stuff in it

And what’s so interesting about that?

Clear that you didn’t even read it or the title since it’s about Hochul’s stance on real estate… :unamused:

545 Broadway, Brooklyn, 27 stories

Embellished with a warm wood-looking exterior and asymmetrical windows, this will sure stand out in the Broadway Triangle area of Williamsburg. Designed by Garrison Architects. Status: excavation

What we could’ve had at 1508 Avenue Z, Brooklyn:


What we now have, because of disgusting, lackluster, NIMBY idiots who threw the project away due to its “proximity” to an elevated subway line and lack of parking spots:

Where can I find, or is there, or do any of you have, a list/compilation of architects that are involved in NYC based projects? I would love to go through their “visions” or “proposed” developments that haven’t made public eye yet. They usually have them on their website.

Thanks.

I dont believe such a list exists. Architects and firms based in NY still design stuff outside the city (on a large scale) and depending on the size of the firm, their projects wont be visible but only for a hand full of work theyve done, I’ve never seen a firm’s website list every single project theyve ever done, it’s mostly just always notable projects that are already built, U/C, or proposed and released by the developer. You won’t find out of the public eye stuff.

Best thing you can do is search firms in NY (like @mcart
has listed) and look that way but firms also normally can’t post projects that haven’t been released to the public by the developer due to NDA’s. There’s no way to specifically looks for projects in NYC by certain firms unless they only do local work.

Some of the more “local” based firms that do more projects in the city than out of it are

Fogarty Finger
FXCollaborative
Morris Adjmi
CetraRuddy
COOKFOX Architects
FX Fowle Architects

there’s lots of others but those are the ones off the top of my head that have done a lot of NYC based projects.

On “local based” I would include ODA as well.
