Prospect Place
Townhouse with a twist
PROSPECT PLACE
Set in landmarked Prospect Heights, this compact townhouse makes the most of a small, empty lot. Without cloying the motifs of the historic district, form and material work together to create a site-specific response to the owner's needs that also fits into its surroundings.
The elegantly corbeled facade uses brick in a unique manner, crediting the long tradition of skilled masons. At its interior, the floor plan is organized around a glass-enclosed lightwell that pierces from roof terrace to basement, terminating in a pocket-sized rock garden.
