"I'm really excited to get back to the East Village. It was the first place I lived on my own in New York City when I moved there," he said. In particular, he always liked this picturesque stretch of East 10th Street — near the St. Mark's Church-in-the-Bowery and the circa 1860s row houses designed by James Renwick Jr.
427 East 12th Street is a brand new luxury boutique condominium outfitted with a beautifully balanced combination of brick, glass, and aluminum façade. The building offers 10 units with distinctive lifestyle experiences with a variety of layouts consisting of 1 (plus home office), 2, and 3 bedroom units.
Residences feature sleek concrete floors with epoxy finishes and floor to ceiling double pane windows. Several residences are complimented with a private outdoor space that range in size. The custom designed chefs kitchen is finished with walnut veneer and satin lacquer cabinetry, Caesar stone countertops, back painted glass, and is fully equipped with stainless steel appliances by Fischer & Paykel. Bathrooms are appointed with oversized bathtubs, custom built vanities, glass enclosed frameless showers, and Duravit & Kohler fixtures throughout.
With its retail diversity, restaurant density, proximity to NYU, Cooper Union and all that downtown has to offer, the East Village is a mecca for artists, musicians, students, and writers. The centerpiece of the neighborhood is the popular Tompkin’s Square Park, which hosts music events and the year round Greenmarket that supports local farmers every Sunday
Joyce combs through flyers of old-school punk, hardcore, and indie rock shows, retains the vital info, and uses that text to create Swiss Modernist-style posters that often incorporate geometric patterns. His work favors minimalism, and his only font is Berthold Akzidenz-Grotesk Medium (lowercase, natch).
"From the smallest birthday party to the largest concert, special events take place every day in New York City parks. If you want to have any activity in a City park with more than 20 people, or where you would like to reserve a specific area within a park, you need to apply for a special event permit."
