The Sterling Mason
Façade installation continues at Morris Adjmi's The Sterling Mason, a 32-unit, six-story condo in Tribeca. Developed by Taconic Investment Partners, the project consists of an existing coffee and tea warehouse structure, built in 1905, with a new structure fronting on Greenwich Street. The existing red brick and terracotta structure will be fully restored and converted into its new residential use, while the new building is conceived as a mirror image, both in size and proportion, of the existing warehouse structure. To further this idea, the new structure is clad in an aluminum prefab panel skin with a plasma finish that emulates a brick façade while adding a shimmering effect.
