도시정원을 위한 첫걸음, 브루클린 아파트먼트 옥상정원. 입주민의 편안한 휴식 및 여가활동 제공을 위한 옥상정원은 드라마틱하게 펼쳐지는 전망은 물론, 산책로와 휴게벤치 그리고 도시를 수복하는 자연을 제공합니다.

located at the center of brooklyn’s DUMBO neighborhood, 60 water is a 17-storey apartment building designed by leeser architecture and developed by two trees management. situated next to the famous brooklyn bridge, the scheme offers impressive views across the east river towards lower manhattan.

the building is topped with an accessible 6,000 square foot roof garden designed by james corner field operations. in developing the scheme the design team sought to incorporate many of the same elements and plant life found at the high line, (a project they also helped landscape), including angled walkways, open viewing areas, and oversized wooden lounge chairs. the building opened just under a year ago, and is currently 85% leased.
