Construction is complete on the adaptive reuse of an early-20th-century manufacturing building in the Landmark District of New York City's Tribeca neighborhood. New York firm Oaklander, Coogan, & Vitto Architects, P.C. (OCV Architects) transformed the building to house four residential units. The lofts retain the building's original 12-foot (3.7-meter) ceilings, exposed brick, and deep spaces, with glass doors and other elements added to maximize interior light. Features include radiant-heated stone floors and recessed marble baseboard and windowsills. Stylander DesignGroup of New York designed the interiors.
