Converting this former commercial building for residential use involved a complex sequence of shoring, demolition, and structural work. The rear third of the building was removed to comply with residential zoning codes, and that floor area was re-built as a four story addition on top of the existing six story structure. The existing brick envelope of the building was insulated for energy efficiency, and clad in a sleek new porcelain facade system. The new apartment interiors mirror the clean lines and thoughtful details of the facade.
