Main St
Balanced on the East River between the Brooklyn and Manhattan Bridges, this cardboard box factory was the tallest reinforced concrete structure in the world when it opened in 1914 and now houses 124 loft apartments. The primary components for this renovation were manufactured in Brooklyn. One end of the living space is adorned by cabinetry produced by Dado Woodworking in Red Hook (south) and hand painted on site. At the opposite end, the space is modified by double action folding steel doors fabricated by Argosy Designs in Greenpoint (north).
