GLENRIDGE MEWS
Glenridge Mews is a 65 unit
condominium located in
Ridgewood, Queens, New York.
Developed on the
site of the former Dietz Coal Yard, approximately half of the existing
buildings have been retained and altered into duplex apartments with exciting
living spaces. The remainder are in two new buildings. A six story
building was designed to
replace the original coal silos which were demolished. A three story building
was integrated as contextual infill
along Fresh Pond Road. Portions of the
existing buildings were demolished in order to create the "mews".
The skeletal remains of old masonry walls define areas within the mews.
Many of the ground floor apartments have gardens. In 1990, ARCT received First
Prize For Excellence in Design from Borough of Queens Chamber of Commerce.
The project also received a Building Award from the Queens County
Builders and Contractors Association the same year.
