Toll Brothers City Living Takes Outdoor Spaces to the Next Level

Last updated on December 17th, 2024

Toll Brothers City Living is taking outdoor spaces to a whole new level… a rooftop level!

 

Pierhouse – Private Terraces

Located in the 85-acre Brooklyn Bridge Park and offering unrivaled views of the Manhattan skyline, Pierhouse consists of 106 townhome-style residences spread across two separate waterfront buildings. Many of the remaining one-to-five bedroom homes offer double-height living rooms and private outdoor space. A lush environment, conceived by landscape architect Michael Van Valkenburgh, includes private rooftops and landscaped terraces designed to complement the surrounding park.

Designed with an overarching approach intended to blend seamlessly with the world-class waterfront park that it occupies, Pierhouse is expected to achieve LEED Silver certification. What’s very interesting here, is that all of the kitchens are outfitted with under counter, odorless NatureMill composting units. As nearly all of the residences have landscaped outdoor space – homeowners can compost right in their apartments and use the rich, organic soil for their outdoor plantings and gardens. There is a huge interplay of the indoor and outdoor lifestyle – with the terraces a real extension of the home.

 

Sustainability – Green Living – Outdoor Space

Each residence features unique finishes through the use of repurposed building materials such as 600-year old reclaimed heartwood pine floors, and recycled Lithoverde Carrara marble on the powder room floors and walls.

Pierhouse also features rainwater irrigation systems, high-efficiency interior and exterior LED lighting, and an energy-efficient solar shade system.

Residents of Pierhouse will have access to a meditation studio with live greenery, bike storage, and all the amenities of the adjoining eco-luxe 1 Hotel – a super eco-conscious and nature oriented brand – which was built with natural elements as a nod to the nature that surrounds it. The hotel will include a “farm-to-table” restaurant that uses locally-sourced organic ingredients.
