Modern Fort Greene townhouse designed by David Adjaye for artist Lorna Simpson asks $6.5M

By Michelle Cohen

For the two decades since it rose at 208 Vanderbilt Avenue in Brooklyn's Fort Greene neighborhood, this modern townhouse has been recognized as an important architectural addition to the streetscape. Asking $6,500,000, the four-story single-family residence is also home to a working artist's studio, making it a perfect model for creative Brooklyn living. As reported recently in the New York Times, Lorna Simpson, a renowned American photographer and multimedia artist with a current exhibition at the Met, and her husband, artist James Casebere, were looking for a place to live and create; after searching for a suitable space among the borough's historic brownstones, the pair hired British architect David Adjaye to design, from the ground up, a building that transcended the traditional amount of light free wall space.

By Michelle Cohen

Bounded by 86th and 96th streets, Third Avenue, and Central Park's east side, the enclave of Carnegie Hill, well within the refined embrace of Manhattan’s Upper East Side, is a neighborhood that transcends trends. A significant portion comprises the Carnegie Hill Historic District with its 19th-century townhouses of brick and brownstone and ornate mansions, converted hotels, and large apartment buildings from the early 20th century. Culturally rich on par with any neighborhood in the world, with a convenience that's hard to beat anywhere in the city, this elegant residential New York City neighborhood appears untouched by time. But within its borders are some of the Upper East Side's most exciting recent residential conversions and new developments.
