East HArlem HOUSING

NEW YORK, NY
This five unit building is on a 18'-3" wide lot. The client desired two bedroom units per floor necessitating a unique jogged bedroom arrangement at the rear of the building. Each unit also has two full baths, one being integral with the master bedroom. A keyed elevator system provides direct access within each unit. The street elevation, designed in conjunction with architect Leehong Kim, features deep window recesses with angled apertures allowing maximum interior illumination. Unique plan arrangements on the first and second floors provide a variation in the overall façade. Three custom iron spot brick types allow continuous solids across angled corners and a continuous running bond pattern. Window systems on the street elevation are floor to ceiling, with a fixed panel below a typical double hung type above.
