Description:

This unique project involved the transformation of an abandoned landmark asset – Holy Rosary Catholic School and Rectory – into a four-story, 35-unit luxury condominium property. The redevelopment of this 57,720-square-foot Renaissance Revival building, originally built in 1922, was a perfect fit for the N.Y.’s Bedford-Stuyvesant neighborhood, a gentrifying and densely-populated area. Many of the details from the building’s storied past were preserved and brought back to life. Units feature state-of-the-art kitchens and modern,generously-sized bathrooms. The structure’s oversized windows were a key element in the overall design of the apartments contributing to the luxurious feeling throughout. The scope of work also involved a full complement of building amenities, which include a rooftop deck with city views, laundry facility with adjacent theater room, a library, a fitness center and yoga studio, a sauna, bike storage and a gaming lounge as well as on-site parking. Upon completion, the units set a record for neighborhood rental rates and were fully leased within three months.
