Residences
When both phases are completed, the 8-story project will offer 911 residential units, ranging in size from studios to two-bedrooms. The project's interiors are designed in three styles: steel, wood, and concrete. These styles impact all facets of the design in a particular zone, from elevator enclosures, corridors, and apartment furnishings. For instance, the wood zone features an elevator enclosure designed to look like a large wood shipping crate and kitchens that feature a complementary wood finish.

Rooftop
Residents have access to a number of outdoor amenities at the rooftop, including lounge space, outdoor games, green market, rooftop mini golf, and rooftop pet run.

Murals
The building's single loaded corridors opening onto large glass corridor walls offered a unique opportunity for featuring artwork. Local artists from the Bushwick Collective were selected to paint a number of murals throughout the building that span the full height of the residential floors.
