#TBT In May 1970, RECORD gave its assessment of a new industrial building in Midtown Manhattan, which had been completed a year before. “A warehouse too handsome to remain one,” the headline proclaims. Known then as the Westward Building, the “confident giant” was designed by Davis, Brody & Associates (now @davisbrodybond) and was celebrated in the pages of RECORD for the “special engineering feats” embedded within the design to solve a a series of challenges—among them train tracks which ran underneath the building and a program that ranged from offices to light manufacturing. That said, about 65 percent of the building was intended to be used for industrial tenants, but the Brutalist building attracted far greater interest from non-industry tenants. More than four decades later, the building’s new owners, Brookfield, hired @rexarchitecture to reimagine the building, which is now known as Five Manhattan West and houses tenants such as Amazon.

The Contemplative Court, one of the key attractions at the National Museum of African American History and Culture, features a one-of-a-kind, copper-bronze @bendheimglass architectural glass. Developed and produced exclusively for the museum, the metallic glass creates a sense of luminosity and warmth, contributing to the serenity and elegance of the space. A recent addition to the National Mall, the museum pays homage to African American art, tradition, history, and culture. Architects: @adjayeassociates , @davisbrodybond , @smithgroup .

My final post from @eater list is one of the breweries responsible with ushering in the craft beer and brewing renaissance in NYC - @brooklynbrewery. I couldn’t be more proud of this project. To have the opportunity to transform and renovate the public spaces at such and iconic brewery producing some of the best beer in the world is something not to take for granted. Every member of the team met or exceeded expectations - thank you to all our collaborators! Thank you so much to @laurenflashford and @danrafalin and the team who were essential to our success! • #builtinbrooklyn #brooklynbrewery #brewedinbrooklyn #webuiltthis #beersofinstagram #eaterny #precisioninnovations #4thstatemetals #nycprojectmanager #thefox @brooklynbrewery @danrafalin @laurenflashford @draftchoicenyc @draftpolicenyc @precision_innovations @4thstatellc @gypsy_hammer @travisyutzy @gt.rentals @mazzone_ace @davisbrodybond (at Brooklyn Brewery) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bob2AgwABmg/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=kkyqhi3a33xj

new direction for 9/11 Museum

In September, art will join artifacts at the National September 11 Memorial Museum. This is a departure for the museum which displays carefully chosen artifacts of the attack on NYC. “There was always the idea that the museum would have a series of temporary exhibits,” Alice M. Greenwald, the museum’s director, said.

In 2011, Brookfield hired Brooklyn-based @rexarchitecture to reimagine the 1969 building by Davis Brody & Associates (now @davisbrodybond) known today as Five Manhattan West. In addition to reskinning the building, the architects' interior renovation included a dramatically improved and expanded lobby.

Definitely one of the most quiet, somber and reflective museums I’ve ever been in. But very well done, with the one exception of a revisionist movie about”Dubya’s” heroism. Truly a space everyone should visit. • • • #igersnyc #nyc #newyorkcity #lowermanhattan #downtownNYC #worldtradecenter #911memorial #911museum #museum #memorial #September11 #burohappold #snohetta #davisbrodybond #minoruyamasaki (at 9/11 Memorial Museum) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1cJvpJA6kY/?igshid=5dkrj1miznzz
