On Tuesday I attended a press tour of the Via Verde development in the Bronx, designed by Grimshaw and Dattner Architects. The project is getting plenty of coverage, and I will feature the building on my weekly page soon, but in the meantime I wanted to post some of my photos showing the building in its physical context, since most of the professional photography on the project (such as this
Domus review) isolates the building from its surroundings. I'll be adding more photos to
my flickr set from the visit soon.
For reference the building is located at 700 Brook Avenue, just north of the baseball diamond visible in
this aerial.
