The last time we checked up on 37 Bridge Street, the 48-unit soap factory conversion from developer Bobby Jacobs of Karnusa Equities, scaffolding obfuscated most of the building, and progress seemed quite slow. Now, according to Dumbo NYC progress has been “moving quickly,” and, so far, it seems that the renovation has remained honorable to the spirit of the original building. In fact, as the Social Cinema video above details, the architect (who goes by the single name Dedi) has gone to particular pains to preserve the massive cylindrical tanks (20 feet in diameter) into the design of the building. Way cool. GMAP
