Text description provided by the architects. 215 Chrystie is located in the Bowery, the rapidly evolving cultural and artistic district in the center of Lower Manhattan. The site sits at the core of the block framed by Houston Street, Stanton Street, and the Bowery, deeply recessed from Chrystie Street. A heterogenic mix of buildings that vary significantly in age, use, architectural quality, as well as scale and proportion surround it. Across the road lies Roosevelt Park, a long and narrow stretch of green that is gaining back its recreational use. When we became involved with the project, the framework for the site had already been established. The building's mass and volume had been negotiated with the city and our task was to design a hotel with a residential component within strictly defined criteria. Our idea was to stack these two very distinct typologies on top of each other, on one hand, to express their difference, while on the other hand, to unify them within the same building skeleton. It was also our aim to complement them with a diverse mix of uses so that the building becomes like a city within the city.
