Scope and Site Planing
The project is a mixed-use high-rise building located in Newport, NJ, right across from Manhattan, NY. Given current urban processes that take place here, this area is a site with great potential for ongoing and future projects. Arqutectonica was selected as one of designer team along other big, NYC based design offices.
Design Scope, Overall Design
The building massing consists of two towers, standing 400’ apart, an east tower with 42 floors and a west tower with 32, and a podium which houses townhouses, parking, roof park and amenity spaces. Each tower has a commercial area, mainly located in the lower 5 floors. The residential units are distributed between two towers with a penthouse located in the two top floors of both towers. The design employs highly sophisticated window panel systems that save energy and preserve skyline aesthetics, especially reflection and color.
Enlarged Floor Plan - East Tower
In east tower there is 1 three bedroom apartment, 4 two bedroom apartments, 5 one bedroom apartments and 1 studio. The building core is located in the center and has twp egress stairs, 4 regular elevators and 2 service elevators.
