Project located in Red Hook's X Zone. No flood insurance required. Red hook. You do not come here by accident. People come with strong intentions. They see open space. A close knit intertwined community that supports free thought and art. Whether food, fashion, painting, sculpture, photography, architecture or coffee, the spirit of Red Hook shapes the medium. Bold with roots to old New York, the streets stretch to New York Harbor where the views of the Statue of Liberty and Downtown are a reminder that Red Hook is part of the city but set just far enough apart to create its own culture and attitude. The buildings are low. Some industrial and pragmatic. Converted to enclaves for artisans to create and live. Designed in a style of living that suits their sensibilities.. Others are Row houses on cobblestone streets that date back to the turn of the century. Most have been repurposed and some have been re-built. Elevating the community while Keeping the heights and dimensions of the old. Utilizing modern finishes and materials to create new interior spaces while embracing the light and air of Red Hook by creating compelling roof decks and gardens. The allure of Red Hook is the sense of wonder and possibility. At every corner you can meet someone who can change your life. A conversation that leads to a new thought or direction. Where the art and concepts are complex but feel approachable and easy. There is a reason the creatives flock here. The energy moves and guides them. All artists have vision. A sense of what will be. It's the only way a blank canvas becomes a painting or a block of stone becomes a sculpture. They are here because of what Red Hook is and what it is to become.
