Brooklyn, NY
Leeser Architecture’s design for the Pier 1 development includes 183 residential apartments, 170 hotel rooms, 300 underground parking spaces. The building amenities include a 60-wide atrium, an olympic-length, glass bottomed swimming pool, spa, restaurants, a full service conference center, a rooftop garden with running track and pool.
Leeser Architecture’s design synthesizes dynamic architecture with the playful and sustainable qualities of New York City Parks, as exemplified in Brooklyn Bridge Park. The building functions as an extension of Brooklyn Bridge Park, seamlessly integrating the site to create a unified experience of nature and built environment. A ribbon of park space extends from the ground floor to an exterior garden terrace at the third floor of the larger building, continuing across the courtyard at the second building to form roof terraces and gardens. A sixty foot wide atrium space that extends up the entire height and length of the building. Above, the 170 hotel rooms and suites float in air, lightly framing the view of the sky.
