Carter's Review

This very handsome, 10-story, mid-block building at 165 Chrystie Street between Delancey and Rivington streets on the Lower East Side was built in 2019 by Nortco Development, which is headed by Haim and Rony Nortman. Nortco's other projects in the city include 253 East 7th Street and Eleven Hancock at 362 West 125th Street. 

The building has 8 condominium apartments. It was designed by ODA, which is headed by Eren Chen and whose other buildings in the city include 15 Union Square West and 303 East 44th Street. It fronts on Sara D. Roosevelt Park.

Bottom Line

A tall, boxy, mid-block design that bursts with the energy of imagined motion.

Description

The building has a bold, finished concrete façade with angled glass facets. Windows are triple-paned.

Amenities

The building has a part-time doorman, an intercom system, a roof deck, a recreation room and gym, a bicycle room, a package room and storage.  Pets are allowed.

The garden apartment is a duplex with 2,569 square feet of interior space and two private outdoor spaces with a total of 761 square feet.
