The project consists of a modernization and 1-story rooftop addition to a 1870s 4-story building, a designated NYC Landmark located within the NYC SoHo Cast Iron District Extension.

Restoration included new wood & glass storefront, new sidewalk & stoops, designed to historic standards and approved via public hearings by NYC Landmarks. The brownstone facade, a rarity in the Cast Iron district, required extensive repairs.

The rooftop addition was detailed in lead coated copper in the spirit of vintage bulkheads and approved by Landmarks at the first Public Hearing. The setback of the rooftop addition allowed for the creation of a new 5th fl terrace.
