Toshiko Mori designs a modern building with a twisting glass-and-stone facade at 277 Mott Street
277 Mott Street, near Prince Street, is a modern building set between tenements in what used to be Little Italy and is now Nolita. Architect Toshiko Mori gave it a twisting street front made of torqued glass together with stone cut by CNC machine, as City Realty describes it. In 2019 the blog Ephemeral New York pointed to it as a contemporary break in an old tenement block.
