The objective of this project was to create a bathhouse in New York City that would<br />

appeal to residents in the surrounding neighborhood as well attract non-residents. The<br />

site is located on the East River, in the Turtle Bay neighborhood of Manhattan; a<br />

neighborhood which, from my observations on site, could be characterized by the narrow<br />

streets consisting of long stretches of continuous brick facade.<br />

Taking this into consideration, I wanted to symbolically open up this facade to expose a<br />

more natural space, one that I hoped would provide a striking contrast to the<br />

surrounding buildings.
