Architecture and interiors firm, CetraRuddy, has announced plan to convert a historic New York City landmark, Mount Sinai St. Luke’s Hospital, into market-rate apartments. Originally used as a hospital services wing, the residential conversion has been commissioned by the developer Delshah Capital. Located at 30 Morningside Drive, the property consists of five Beaux-Arts structures of which four are French Renaissance Revival pavilions and a carriage house located at the center. The redevelopment will include 205 units of housing throughout the four buildings and the carriage house will be converted into an amenities space for residents. Initial work on the site has begun with a completion date set for mid-2019.
“This project represents a great opportunity to preserve an architecturally significant piece of New York’s history and urban fabric, and to repurpose it for the future. 30 Morningside will also be a great example of how the challenges of historic adaptive reuse projects can lead to unique and interesting solutions,” Eugene Flotteron, director of architecture at CetraRuddy.
