Architecture 101: Amity Street Delight [Brownstoner]GMAP P*Shark
The Place des Vosges is exactly what the facade reminds me of. Except with the arcades.
I want to like this building but it’s really blocky and awkward in the way a lot of these institutional buildings are that are aping some historical style. They’d never build something like this at the Place des Vosges. I also can’t imagine the finishes are that nice–dour is a very likely prognosis.
Brownstoner is way late on this property…it’s in contract
I’m not sure about the finishes, they might be a bit institutional/dour. But it is old fireproof construction, solid as a rock.
If the finishes are nice that building could pull $1000 sq foot
Forget about adding a couple of stories to this building, it is in the Cobble Hill Historic District and I doubt anything other than a very modest rooftop addition will ever be permitted.
