20 Fulton E, Mixed Use Development

Recommended Posts


I think I would have preferred a less contrasting color for the solid panels, but I see what they are trying to do, and it is certainly very trendy in facade design across the world.

The one thing I am wondering about right now are the partial height anodized panels. It appears that beneath these are the HVAC unit intake/exhaust louvers. In the elevations they are shown the same color as the silver/anodized facade panels, but right now they are black. I'm curious if there is an additional cladding panel going over these or if they will remain dark.

A bit taller, but similar concept on the windows.

Suffice to say I am not sophisticated enough to understand why people think this is attractive.  They both make Gallery on Fulton look good.  Suffice to say I think 20 Fulton will probably have the same effect.

I like it in moderation. It reinforces individuality (it'd be hard to find two units on the building that look the same from the outside). But since it's challenging monotonous construction, you can really only have one or two in a city. Otherwise everyone's a rebel which means no one's a rebel.

I guess it depends on if the get multiple tenants.  Maybe they are hoping for a CVS to take up the entire 10k SF.   It seems like a logical spot for a full service CVS or Walgreen's.

Been saying for years there needs to be a 24hour/drug store type place downtown....not up in the hill!

Anyone notice they put up new signage with renderings of the building? This is the best photo I could get. Would love to see a digital version. :)

If you go on the website they've got a lot of details about it and I have to say I'd like to sell my house and move in. You can pay extra for housekeeping! Done and done.
