The Apthorp

2211 Broadway, New York, NY 10024

History

2211 Broadway, better known as The Apthorp, is one of New York City’s architectural marvels. This Italian Renaissance Revival structure, constructed in 1908, occupies an entire city block and has stood the test of time for over a century. Designated as a historical landmark, The Apthorp highlights its significant role in the city’s heritage. Today, it serves as an apartment building, famously home to numerous well-known celebrities. 

Our restoration efforts concentrated on the sidewalk vault, meticulously planning and executing work to preserve both its structural integrity and historical authenticity.

Concrete & Coating

Concrete is one of the most frequently used building materials. It is used extensively for a wide range of construction work, such as footpaths, driveways and roads, residential and commercial construction – floors and walls, foundations and footings, for posts, fences and walls, and even boat hulls.
Precast concrete is typically stronger than natural cut limestone, but it doesn’t have the look of natural cut stone. Cast Stone, on the other hand, solves both problems. Cast Stone can be stronger than precast concrete and is easily cast to produce identical pieces.

Architectural metalwork is a unique factor in the building process that involves using metalwork practices to create structures that are not only functional but also have a strong aesthetic role to play too. It is the bringing together of metalwork and architecture.
Architectural steel fabrication often involves the use of decorative elements, such as ornamental railings, staircases, and facades. On the other hand, structural steel fabrication is concerned with the strength and stability of the building.
