Permanent Mission of the Republic of Namibia to the United Nations

Located in the Murray Hill Historic District at the corner of 37th Street and Lexington Avenue, this project involved a full gut renovation of a historic brownstone, the construction of a rear addition, and the vertical expansion of the structure with an additional story. The design embodies a dialogue between past and present—merging the historic character of the original brownstone with a contemporary glass-and-steel tower that symbolizes a forward-looking, progressive vision.
