A contemporary interpretation of the classic New York loft building,
this 27,000 sf stables and warehouse building was converted into
fourteen generous apartments for gallerist Max Protetch.
The recurring theme is the thoughtful marriage of new and old -
the insertion of elegant, structurally glazed windows into the massive
brick façade; the sleek Valcucine kitchens juxtaposed with exposed
timber and brick; the glass penthouse floating on top of the solid
masonry structure; the use of sustainable materials, products and
systems in a recycled structure.
Installing a new heavy timber structure inside the original
brick shell allowed the beauty of the wood beams to remain exposed –
heavy timber is inherently fireproof. This was the first time this
traditional construction technique has been used in New York City in
fifty years. The renewably harvested timber structure is remarkable
for having qualities of new and old at the same time.
The addition of a glass rooftop pavilion created two duplex
penthouses with expansive terraces and sweeping views of lower
Manhattan. All new stairs, elevator, services and infrastructure
brought the building into the present and extensive restoration gave
fresh life to the classic masonry structure.
Designed in collaboration with Rawlings Architects.
