Townhouse scale of the neighborhood as it transitions to the Gowanus Canal area
This 44-unit multifamily residential project in Carroll Gardens, Brooklyn appropriates the townhouse scale of the neighborhood as it transitions to the Gowanus Canal area. The design concept reinforces the multiple connections between the person and the place in these buildings. At the community scale, this street wall and corner condition becomes a threshold from this complex of apartments to the neighborhood. At the family scale, each floor is a home, and each floor is distinguishable on the façade. At the individual scale, the units are comfortably ranged from studio apartments to four bedroom units. This array of options is disguised behind a seemingly repetitive overall intent.
The building settles naturally into its Brooklyn streetscape, balancing contemporary material choices with the familiar scale and rhythm of the surrounding neighborhood.
Across the eight sections there is a rhythmic alternation of façade materials with projecting roof elements punctuating the roofline, making each floor clearly legible as an individual home within the larger composition.
Although entries are shared, each section is framed marking a distinct threshold with lush sidewalk landscaping, reinforcing the townhouse character of Carroll Gardens at the pedestrian scale.
The interiors are crafted to feel as though they were specifically built for each family.
All the cabinets, the custom radiator covers, and the stone countertops, are locally made by Brooklyn based fabricators, helping it to become the first mid-rise luxury residential building in Brooklyn to reach LEED Platinum certification.
Prefabricated interior walls were easily erected by crane to help lower the costs and speed up the construction schedule.
Natural light is achieved by opening up the exterior wall with large windows and skylights.
Special features include private outdoor spaces for 80% of the units, locally sourced facade materials, and energy recovery ventilators for tempering and filtering fresh air continuously.
