We noticed that the condo development on 220 St. Nicholas at 121st Street finally got its glass on this weekend. The building has been under construction for the past year but looked pretty amorphous until now. From the images posted at the side of the building, the glass will be mixed with some striking yellow panels. The couple of blocks between West 121st and 124th Streets on FDB and the junction of St. Nicholas will start to look completely different in the next three months since the Aloft Hotel and another major condo building will be finished by then. To get to this area, take the A,B,C,D to 125th Street. Photo by Ulysses

This building was designed by Jeffrey Cole Architects, who are also designing a building on 122nd Street.

The exterior slate panels are a design element derived by the architect Jeffrey Cole. The color will not be as yellow, however, it will surely make the building stand out as another work of art in the heart of Harlem
