As we first reported, the cutting-edge architectural firm is designing the new apartment building for Charney Companies and Tavros at 175 Third St. in Gowanus.
DUMBO has emerged as the Brooklyn epicenter of design and architecture. Two Trees also lured Snohetta from Manhattan to 55 Washington St. earlier this year. The district is also home to Garrison Architects, Brooklyn Studio and to many furniture designers.
