Project Description
Terrain was hired to design and oversee construction for the conversion of the former Watch Tower printing press to a large urban coworking campus located next to the East river and the Brooklyn Bridge.
The first phase of the campus conversion focuses on 3 at grade public gardens and a series of retail terraces and overlooks which rise above Brooklyn Bridge Park below. Two entry gardens will transform the daily experience of visitors and tenants at the new campus, while a large courtyard along Furman street redeems a forgotten piece of New York’s waterfront history and will function as a public pocket park.
