The façade is comprised of tan brick, black-metal framed windows, and glass railings that enclose the residential balconies and amenity spaces. The massing incorporates a number of setbacks and cantilevers that will support the balconies. For added flare, the underside of each cantilevered section is sheathed in reflective gold cladding.
