An unusually shaped building designed by architect Nataliya Donskoy is going up at 173 Green Street in Greenpoint. The front of the building is not straight across but angles in four directions.

The Alt-1 permit calls for four stories and seven units. Donskoy, a former employee of Robert Scarano, is becoming known for sometimes mold-breaking designs in North Brooklyn. What do you think of the design?

  1. Seems to be this architect’s signature. She designed the facade alteration at 140 Degraw St, which has a similarly angled structure. The Degraw facade is grafted onto a conventional row house.

  2. I want to be like, “Yay, woman architect! Innovative ideas! Woo!” But it looks kind of scary in this stage of development. What’s the stop work order about?
