The design of 205 Water Street was conceived to complement and preserve the unique character of the DUMBO Historic Landmark District in which it is located\u2014 a neighborhood of 19th and early 20th century industrial architecture of greatly varied and often monumental scale. The principal exterior building material is cast in place architectural concrete, the very same material used in the district\u2019s larger turn of the century loft buildings. This concrete, rendered in a more contemporary smooth, cool gray, is contrasted by warm Cor-Ten steel accents that are inspired by the weathered industrial metalwork found throughout the neighborhood.<\/p>\n

Dock 72 is a 16-story, 675,000 sf mixed-use office building designed in response to the way people work today, and sited in the heart of the Brooklyn Navy Yard, a 300-acre former shipyard and industrial park, reimagined as an anchor of Brooklyn\u2019s Tech Triangle. A locus of creativity, entrepreneurship, and modern industry in New York, the Brooklyn Navy Yard is home to over 300 local businesses generating more than $2B of revenue annually. More than a vanguard office building, Dock 72 is an inspiring workplace environment and incubator at the center of the emerging industries that are defining New York\u2019s future.<\/p>\n

160 East 22nd Street is a 21-story, 84-unit condominium apartment building, located in the Gramercy Park neighborhood of Manhattan. In addition to luxury residences, the building includes ground foor retail space. The design is based on a modern interpretation of the elegant and timeless classic pre-war apartment buildings in the neighborhood. The limestone clad building\u2019s massing is sculpted to incorporate a 24\u2019 cantilever, and punctuated with alternating deep set fenestration pattern. The building\u2019s dramatic signature cantilever was conceived to successfully incorporate additional development rights purchased by the property; while the required setbacks were incorporated into the composition, allowing the top level apartment units to enjoy access to terraces.<\/p>\n
