Sustainability, urban infill, and assimilation to the site are among the driving forces behind the design of 1040 New York Street. The footprint of this spec house was designed to allow it to be easily integrated into the fabric of the neighborhood of East Lawrence. The design of the home offers a similar scale as the rest of the neighborhood while external material embraces the opportunity to differentiate and explore innovative designs, while also maintaining a focus on ease of maintenance and longevity. The house is certified LEED Platinum. Off alley, to the house is an accessory dwelling.
