PROJECT DESCRIPTION
In the 1920s the Freiden family lived above their grocery business and rented out the spare rooms to workers. Since then, the upper floors of the historic building had remained empty until a new development took on the challenge of restoring them to a dozen residential “micro” units varying in size from 317 to 572 square feet. Additionally, the street-level once again serves as retail space, as well as a restaurant, in the developing Flatiron District.
