What a grim exterior!
The finished building doesn’t.have the two brick colors. It’s fine. A bit dull like most of Marin-designed affordable buildings.
Is there a rule that the photos from NYC Housing Connect have to be taken at night and/or with the worst possible lighting and staging?
Yes.
Looks like a prison, one that charges $2,155 for a single cell. The pollution parking floor walls are just begging for graffiti.
This should have been passive built…
Yes yes i like it. Thank you
I was hoping this was a cut-and-paste “idea”, not the real building. One of the worst I’ve ever seen.
Please let me know am a responsible tenant need a one bedroom
