Construction is complete on 208 Delancey Street, a 12-story residential building on Manhattan’s Lower East Side. Designed by ODA New York and developed by New Empire Corporation, the 85,000-square-foot structure yields 85 condominium units in studio to three-bedroom layouts with sales and marketing led by Compass. The property is located by the corner of Delancey Street and Pitt Street.
At the time of YIMBY’s last update in February, the structure stood completely covered in black netting and scaffolding as exterior work progressed. This has since been disassembled, revealing the finished look of the flowing light brick and bronze-colored trim work and paneling. The design features numerous cantilevered balconies with curved corners that protrude out toward the sidewalk from the ribbon windows. The multi-story mechanical bulkhead is enclosed in a white corrugated metal screen that matches the rounded geometry of the building below.
