Greystone Development, a New York-based real estate development company, announced its property at 227 Fourth Avenue has been recognized by the Park Slope Civic Council with an Evelyn and Everett Ortner Preservation Award for excellence in exterior restoration.
Greystone Development worked alongside Daniel Goldner Architects, Higgins Quasebarth & Partners, and Walter B. Melvin Architects to restore the 1910 neo-Classical structure on Fourth Avenue, which was originally utilized as a public bathhouse. The preservation process, which began in 2014, included retaining and preserving as much of the original glazed brick, limestone, and terra cotta façade as possible—close to 80 percent—while painstakingly restoring intricate and colorful ornamental details such as nautical-themed carvings and an elaborate cornice.
