In one of New York City’s most unique apartment residences, a 47-foot bridge hovers nine stories above the ground, connecting the clients medical practice with an entrance on 78th st. to his modern duplex residence on 77th.
“I want people to feel exposed to an “anti-urban ” environment. To have a surreal. out-of-body experience: to walk out on that bridge and for that brief moment when they’re nine stories above the ground between two sections of the same residence and between two blocks, I want them to pause and think about their place in the world.”
