Description of project:
Freeman Street is a new 4 story, 5 unit apartment building in Greenpoint. It is modeled after the idea of a European style building group, when friends get together as their own developers. The street facade mirrors this idea as each member chose the shape and location of their windows. Another design feature is the stairway with natural light as well the exterior wall being exposed concrete on the inside. Shared common spaces are the future green roof and parts of the cellar.
