Renderings Revealed for Condo Building At 233 Mott Street In Nolita, Manhattan

Renderings have been revealed for 233 Mott Street, a six-story residential building in Nolita, Manhattan. Designed by Michael Zenreich Architect PC and developed by King’s Capital, the 74-foot-tall structure will yield five condominium units above ground-floor retail space. The project will also include a rear garden, private balconies, and a cellar with bicycle storage, a package room, and retail storage. The property is located between Prince and Spring Streets.

The application went before the Landmarks Preservation Commission for a public hearing on August 18, where the applicant is seeking a Certificate of Appropriateness to construct the new building. The empty lot was subdivided from the remainder of the landmark site, according to the commission’s calendar, placing any new construction under Landmarks review. Drawings dated August 11 show a 64-foot street wall rising to a main roof parapet at 74 feet, 9 inches, within the 65-foot maximum base height and 75-foot maximum building height permitted under the site’s C6-2 zoning, with an elevator bulkhead topping out at 78 feet, 6 inches.

The Mott Street façade is composed in red brick, with Roman-length units on the street elevation and a four-bay grid of black aluminum tilt-and-turn windows. Brickwork near the sixth floor aligns with the rooflines of the adjacent tenements, and the parapet is finished with a brick cornice and cast stone coping. At grade, a sepia-brown aluminum storefront with black metal decorative framing is topped by a sign band with backlit building numerals. Stacked balconies serve the upper residences along the rear elevation, and the garden duplex opens onto a landscaped rear yard.

The parcel last held a mid-century extension of the adjacent school, demolished in 2015 and 2016.
