This major reuse project transforms three historic buildings constructed over 140-plus years into an office and educational environment located in Downtown Brooklyn. The redesign combines 680,000 square feet through façade restoration, partial demolition, and new construction. It includes the addition of 11 floors, plus a penthouse level, with terraces and rooftop spaces. The design features historical character while

incorporating high-performance glass curtain walls and ribbon windows that provide natural light to deep floor plates suited for educational programming. The mixed-use facility incorporates the historic fabric of the Brooklyn neighborhood and serves as a creative and academic community. At the center of the design, a signature glass stair adds light and educational aspiration to the city skyline, demonstrating how adaptive reuse strategically repurposes historic structures for contemporary learning needs while honoring preservation goals.
