Wow what an amazing design concept in the heart of the East Village; built by Battistella these urban industrial living spaces are glorious with their 18 foot ceilings.
The lobby is very spacious, with a nice huge ramp for the physically and not so physically challenged and a very colourful color scheme.
The building was built in 2002 and is the first of its kind in the city. The lofts are very skeletal in design, the kitchen has the basic appliances and industrial shelving but the most impressive thing for me are the floor to ceiling windows that drench the entire unit with light. All the interiors have polished cement floors and metal railing flanks that ascend to the second floor of each unit, the lofted bedroom. The sizes of the units range from 650 to 900 square feet.
It is built in the newly developing area of the East Village so one of the difficulties can be a somewhat sketchy neighbourhood and perhaps weaving in and out of the new construction that seems to pop up suddenly in random areas.
But for me, a really interesting modern and sleek way to do inner city living. Great job Battistella!
