GLASS BOX IN HISTORIC DISTRICT
Tribecan Bill Bialosky designed a glass addition to the roof of 13 Harrison (south side) that was presented to the CB1 Landmarks Committee this week, and received some pushback from neighbors. The extension is 26 feet tall and will rise up the shared wall between that building and 11 Harrison. The neighbor who lives at 15 Harrison called it “grossly out of character with the neighborhood” and suggested it would block the backyards of neighboring buildings, where, he said there is “as active an environment there as on the front of the building.” The committee will make a final decision after it examines the sightlines from Greenwich.
