| 摘要： | Greenpoint Landing's Block D, now leasing as "Eagle + West," is the latest development to be built along the Brooklyn, N.Y., waterfront. Two towers house 745 residential units with 42,000 ft~2 of amenities that form a loop at the podium base. Architectural precast concrete panels with 8- × 8-ft windows clad the towers and feature angled planes that change orientation with each block of setbacks and cantilevers. The cantilevers offer an element of drama to the buildings. By adding a series of stepped cantilevers to the 40-story tower and cutting the 30-story tower back in the opposite direction, the project takes advantage of both the new waterfront esplanade and views across the East River to Manhattan. "The result is almost like a single block that's split into two," says Jason Long, a partner at OMA Architects. "By extending the bottom of the lower tower, we accentuate the park frontage and then for the taller tower, you get the city views." The skyline created by the residential towers is striking because the towers simultaneously lean into and away from one another. Long describes the towers as "a ziggurat and its inverse-carefully calibrated to one another and defined by the space between them." |
