The ground and basement levels comprise a sizeable commercial office, in this long, deep lot, which can accommodate a generous addition at the back. Here, a double-height space with expansive windows draws light down into the basement, where the staff lounge is situated, looking out toward a sunken courtyard. Up a few steps, the courtyard adjoins an intimate backyard, graced with lush, mature trees to provide ample shading. The exterior of the back addition is a monolithic white volume with windows of varying sizes whimsically dancing about. The office’s interior features abundant exposed brick to add warmth and draw out the historical quality of the original building.
On the upper two floors, a range of residential units — studios, one-bedroom apartments and a signature loft — will be available for rental. Clean and minimalist in design, these apartments enjoy plentiful sunlight through their large windows.
