ABOUT THE PROJECT: 

Three adjacent lots in Prospect Le# erts Gardens are the project site for a new eighteen unit multi-family mixed use building. The massing is largely driven by the desire to create a building that ! ts bridges between the existing neighboring three story brick walk-ups and taller multi-family buildings of the future. This is realized by the creation of two masses—one smooth and the other ‘chunky’. The smooth mass is understated, more closely relating to the scale of existing urban fabric, while the chunky mass sits atop and in contrast, articulated and expressive. The articulations of the chunky mass form unique outdoor spaces for each two or three bedroom unit, a necessary and desirable program in the age of social distancing. The ground $ oor has ample space for commercial or community facility tenants.
