NEW YORK | 27 East 79th Street | 232 FT | 15 FLOORS
Project: 27 East 79th Street
Quote:
The prime blocks of the Upper East Side seldom see new developments, but renderings have now been revealed for the H.T.O. Architect-designed 27 East 79th Street. The project is the first new building to rise on its block in nearly forty years. The architect teamed up with the Parisian firm, Cabinet Albero Pinto, to create a structure fit for the neighborhood.
The classical style takes influence from the Beaux-Arts tradition that permeates the neighborhood. It’s most notable neighbor just around the corner, is one of the most widely recognized examples of the revivalist style, the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
The design for the project is sure to please many, with traditional motifs expertly applied. The lobby’s entrance includes a decorative glass marque and an art-nouveau door. Iron railing and thick metal beams painted black are consistent themes for the building’s façade, a modern twist to contrast with the stone bricks and ornamental details.
The 232-foot tall structure will create eight enormous condominiums, averaging 2,849 square feet apiece. There will be three single-story apartments, four duplex units, and a triplex occupying the top floors. A maisonette with a garden will be included on site.
