Timberburg - 179 North 10th St.

Currently the tallest modern mass timber building in New York City, 179 North 10th (also known as Timberburg), stands at the forefront of advanced building technology. 

This 42,500-square-foot, 23-unit boutique condo was designed to show off the beauty of the mass timber construction from the outside to in, with large exposed mass timber balconies continuing inside to open spaces and exposed timber columns. 

The project combines the carbon-sequestering benefits of Cross-Laminated Timber (CLT) and Glulam with rigorous Passive House standards, targeting one of the most energy-efficient residential buildings in the five boroughs. 

With a highly insulated, airtight envelope and high-performance mechanical systems, the team is currently pursuing Passive House certification to further elevate building performance.
