PLAZA 46 | Palisades Park, New Jersey
This 9,000 sf building located on busy Broad Avenue invigorates an aging neighborhood with a modern infill retail building. The second floor stores face both the street and the parking lot to the rear. A rear loggia was implemented off the parking area to give these retail spaces a 'grade level' entry and easy handicapped access. The armature of the retail loggia wraps the corner of the building to signal the entry to pedestrians approaching from Broad Avenue. The play between the light glass curtain wall and the solid brick volume reinterpret the traditional elements of the retail stores of the area.
