Herzog & de Meuron<\/a>, in collaboration with Curtis + Ginsberg Architects<\/a>, took cues from the surrounding “historic architecture of the West Village” for the building’s design, which features a “trapizodial” brick tower made up of cubic window units.<\/p>\n

It will be 35 storeys tall.<\/p>\n

The project is a partnership between public entities, the New York City Department of Housing Preservation & Development<\/a> (HPD), Department of Parks & Recreation<\/a> (NYC Parks) and the DEP; and will be developed by Camber Property Group<\/a>, Services for the UnderServed<\/a> (S:US), and Essence Development<\/a>.<\/p>\n

According to NYC deputy mayor for Housing, Economic Development, and Workforce Adolfo Carri\u00f3n Jr, it is the “first-ever” combination of affordable housing and recreation in the city.<\/p>\n

“This first-ever combination of affordable housing with a recreation center offers a model of what innovative housing solutions with community input should look like,” said Carri\u00f3n Jr.<\/p>\n

The tower sits upon a multi-storey base, with renders depicting the recreation spaces on the lower floors and an open-air plaza on the sixth storey.<\/p>\n

It will contain “nearly 280” units of affordable housing, according to the team, with at least 15 per cent dedicated towards transitional housing for New Yorkers.<\/p>\n
