Angles, Setbacks and Windows on Adelphi Street

house house
There’s a new 5-story building going up at 184 Adelphi Street between Willougby and Myrtle. It’s too early too tell whether its angular modernism will be successful or not but we’re curious to know how residents are feeling about it. We’re just happy to see some decent-sized windows for a change! The building was designed by Michael Marshall Architecture. Ever heard of ‘em? Just for kicks, we include a photo of a beautiful woodframe house–of mid-19th century origin, we assume–across the street at Number 183.
