Once the face of a livestock building that played a central role in the city’s meat-packing
history, 832 was one of the first buildings to undergo a significant redevelopment after the
neighborhood adopted the historic Fulton-Randolph Market District Design guidelines.
Given the structural complexities of the building, the design team took several approaches
to the facade, including (1) carefully preserving the southwest facade with elaborate
scaffolding, (2) completely rebuilding the southeast facade, and (3) the careful cataloguing
and re-building of the northeast facade to match its original character.
This resulting mixed-use complex occupies a full block. Thanks to a excellent collaboration
between owner, contractor, architect and the City’s Landmarks Department, the resulting
development rebuilt an existing historic facade, demolished 1960s era additions, and
created a new, modern entertainment retail space wrapped in a contemporary expression of
the adjacent historic facade.
