looks like another clunker
More cinder block bullsh*t. The added density is nice tho
The “efficiency units” are almost inhumane. A single 36″ wide window facing a 3’x4′ interior lightwell? Yikes.
Designed by a structural engineer. Enough said.
That looks really nice and much more in keeping with some historical precedents. I’m really glad to see balconies that aren’t in dark caves. I don’t know how anyone deals with those even darker interiors. I wish the bedroom windows was bigger but not unusual for a lightwell And a good number of people prefer dark bedrooms. I’m just not one of those people.
