Glassy EMS Station Coming to Metropolitan Ave

Workers have started digging into a site on Metropolitan between Roebling and Havemeyer, preparing the property for a new building that will be called the Greenpoint Emergency Medical Service Station. The EMS station, which is designed by Michielli + Wyetzner Architects, is slated to be done next August. The architects have the following to say about the project: “The 90-foot-long, second-story translucent glass wall, with a honey comb pattern set into the glass, appears to float above the ground floor and is part of the building’s strong identity. Aglow in the evening, the new Greenpoint EMS Station will be a distinct presence in the Williamsburg community.”
