Elements of the earlier church have been preserved, which is nice, but had the white parts been made red brick color, there would be more unity in the design.
Corten steel would have also looked great.
To each their own think there is merit to this approach which intentionally segregates the two so both old and new pop in their own way
i like that the apts look different from the church sections, because they are. i applaud the historic facade save elements not going to nitpick that effort — and for them its a nice selling point. all good here.
More of a curious oddity than historical preservation.
Imagine growing up in the neighborhood and seeing transplants getting these apartments instead of the community. These are not affordable for people who have lived there for decades. Landlords typically pay for heat and water. In this one, tenants pay that as well as gas and/or electric. So the owners get the usual tax breaks, but tenants pay for heat/water/gas and/or electric. Epiphany Roman Catholic Church used to be on that very location. Oh, some housing lotteries deny tenants pets, while the other market rate tenants are allowed to have them. It is almost as if they are being discriminatory towards the housing lottery tenants who do work.
It’s pretty but so expensive. Come to East Orange New Jersey, it’s not as pretty but it’s 20 minutes by New Jersey Transit from Penn Station NY and definitely not as expensive.
I really hate to say it, but this looks interesting.
This is my old neighborhood from my childhood inn1959s zz tp late 1980s. Big changes there and has become non-affordable.
