10-story residential building completed in 2014. Designed by Morris Adjmi, the overall concept of the building is a grid, defined in pale cast concrete, with regular rectangular windows. The building rises up like a solid block to the 6th floor, where a 4-story setback rises. The first two stories are defined as a base by a darker trim that distinguishes those levels from the rest of the building. The central eight bays are further defined by a paler shade of brown and rise to the 8th floor level, into the domain of the setback. At the very top is a small glass structure that quietly challenges, in its apparent fragility, the forceful solidity of the rest of the façade, even as it picks up a similar motif in the base of the building. It contains18 condominium units.
