ARCHITECTURE: 767 ST. NICHOLAS AVENUE



Harlem Bespoke:  Renovations  has started on one of the unique townhouses at 767 St. Nicholas Avenue on Sugar Hill and something notable has been planned.  As can be seen in the second photo, the original stoop had been removed in past decades but the new architectural rendering reveals that this design detail will be restored.  Since this section of Sugar Hill by 148th Street is a landmark district, any future facade updates will probably have to be pretty accurate to the original look of the building.  

With that said, St. Nick's Pub was demolished a couple of months ago because of a tragic fire but this recent development might portend a rebirth of that historic address based on the Landmark Commissions specifications.  More on the the story in our past post: LINK
