Fifty-two Park Avenue
Although architectural references to its neighboring building environment are abstract, 52 Park Avenue, between 37th and 38th Streets, fits comfortably into the urban fabric of Park Avenue.
The richness of detail common to many of the older Park Avenue buildings is re-interpreted by creating a matrix which produces complex shadow patterns on the building’s rich brick and concrete facade.
The building consists of ten duplex apartments and lower floor professional spaces.
Spatially organized around three octagonal towers, this 6,000 square foot home sits on an 8 acre site within a gated community overlooking Candlewood Lake in Connecticut.
