- Location: New York City
- Size: 126,500 sq ft
- Type: Multifamily
- Developer: Madison Realty Capital
- Executive Architect: Crown Architecture
One of Crown’s most intricate and ambitious undertakings, this development spans eight contiguous buildings along the entire western blockfront of Frederick Douglass Boulevard between West 111th and West 112th Streets—with the potential to double in size. The site presented three primary challenges:
- Designing a new structure atop existing buildings while seamlessly integrating structural and infrastructure systems.
- Strategically phasing construction to allow for uninterrupted operation and occupancy of the existing buildings.
- Creating an architectural identity that stands on its own while harmonizing with the character of the lower structures.
Through innovative engineering solutions and thoughtful architectural design, Crown successfully navigated these complexities—delivering a transformative project that redefines urban integration while enhancing the fabric of the surrounding streetscape.
