One of Crown’s most complex projects, the site consists of 8 contiguous building along the entire western blockfront of Frederick Douglass Blvd between West 111th and West 112th Streets, with the capacity to double in size. This presented three distinct challenges; how to build a new building on top of existing buildings to remain and integrate the structural and infrastructure systems, how to phase the work while keeping the existing portions of the building operation and occupied, and how to come up with a design that had an independent look but still complimented the lower buildings.
