211 Elizabeth is a residential building located at 211 Elizabeth Street, in the Nolita neighborhood of Manhattan.[1] It was designed by architecture and interior design firm Roman and Williams and was the organization's first building design. The building is primarily residential, but also includes space for three separate commercial developments on the first floor.
Development
The building sold out in 2010, after failing to sell out when first placed on the market in 2008 due to the recession, a fact that resulted in a brief hiatus in listings.[2]
Construction and accolades
The bricks of the building were placed by hand, which is atypical for contemporary construction, as most buildings use pre-fabricated brick facades. Construction was led by Irish masons, and individual bricks cost up to $300 apiece.
The building won a Palladio Award in 2010 for its use of traditional design and construction materials.[3]
Usage and residents
The building is mixed use, with fifteen units spread across seven stories, and room for three separate commercial developments in the structure's basement. Billy Joel and Gabriel Byrne are both residents of the building.[4][5]
Tenants received a custom bike upon purchasing a residence.[6]
