STOREFRONT SOUVENIRS
Proposal for an Apartment Building in Queens, Exhibited at Storefront for Art Architecture, Souvenirs: New New York Icons, New York, New York, 2017
Team: Andrew Kovacs, Erin Wright
Project Description:
This proposal calls for a large podium filled with apartments of various types that support a collection of 10 miniaturized Empire State Buildings. The 10 miniaturized Empire State Buildings are arranged along the permit of the podium, thus creating a communal court on the roof of the podium. The 10 miniaturized Empire State Buildings create a new skyline - a point of reference and identification for the apartment building. The interior of each of the towers is dedicated for a particular use for the residents of the complex. The uses of 10 miniaturized Empire State Buildings are as follows:
- Storage Tower
- Observation Tower
- Gym Tower
- Playground Tower
- Garden Tower
- Patio Tower
- Pet Tower
- Game Tower
- Music Tower
- Art Tower
