Carter's Review
It's a shame this is not a free-standing building for the rear façade is perhaps even more interesting and dramatic than the front façade.
The project, which is known as V33, was designed by Winka Dubbeldam, who set the city's architecture buffs astir with her first project, 497 Greenwich Street in which she cascaded an 11-story undulating green glass façade over the top of an old 6-story building.
The December 2004 issue of Esquire magazine featured her among its "best and brightest" stars in architecture, highlighting her next venture, then known as the "Vestry Street Project," at 31-33 Vestry Street in TriBeCa.
Her building has a façade of soft gray colored glass, translucent stone and stone-glass laminate with a "notch" setback at the fourth floor and a strong horizontal motif. The rear façade of the building is slightly angled.
The rear façade of the building, however, is very different.
The building, which is on the former site of a parking lot on the cobblestone street just to the west of Hudson Street, has 7 condominium units, each of which has a 5-foot-wide gas-burning fireplace with Pompei stone hearth. Kitchens have Miele, Gaggenau and Subzero appliances.
The building has a 24-hour doorman.
