I don’t see the dome.
If you bisect a dome and its supporting structure you get an arch. There are many arch motifs to be found in the Dome, as well as numerous curving and curvilinear touches throughout. To my eye these distinctive features are more pleasing and perhaps even a more elegant in appearance than the harshness of the usual sharp edges found so often in modern architecture. However if one is desperate to find a true dome in Greenpoint one might see the dome of the former Greenpoint Savings bank from the roof of the Dome. It’s a few blocks to the southwest and was shown from above as part of a mosque in the move “The Siege”. Nowadays, with it’s stately landmarked interior under that dome, it’s being proposed as a cannabis lounge and dispensary
Maybe they should have named it Archy Bunker.
I don’t think the large aggregate terrazzo tile look is going to age well. The facade looks pleasant enough.
It feels like they just knocked a few 100 bucks of the market rent to get some tax breaks. Not that much cheaper than what I reckon market rate is there…
