Look Ahead: 215 Chrystie St.

Concreteworks East is excited to begin production for 215 Chrystie Street’s interior in the upcoming months. The new 28 story building developed by Ian Schrager Company and designed by Herzog & de Meuron will feature 11 luxurious condo residences and a 370 room hotel branded under the Public name.

The interiors of the 11 one-of-a-kind condos are designed by John Pawson, whom also was the interior designer for the Edition Miami Beach Residences. Concreteworks East will be prominently featured in the master bathrooms of these condo units as shown in the rendering above, inspired by the poster child project of 40 Bond St.

Located in the Bowery neighborhood, the birthplace of counterculture and the crossroads of the city’s most vibrant and exciting neighborhoods, 215 Chrystie stays true to the history, context, culture and spirit of its location. In a symbiotic relationship, 215 Chrystie is the ultimate expression of Uptown meets Downtown. The building is both completely original, refined and sophisticated, while at the same time subversive, edgy, exuberant and fun. The architects employed honest, modest and authentic materials in a refined, poetic and lyrical way. Both inside and outside, everyday raw concrete was used in an entirely new way with various novel techniques, adding additional elements and special wood framing that reinvents and recreates this everyday material. Floor-to-ceiling special imported windows with mullionless corners maximize rare unobstructed 270 degree views of New York City and create a light, airy, and transparent quality to the interior spaces as well as the overall building.
