Vidro Named Among “Most Innovative Architecture Projects of 2020” by Fast Company Magazine

October 1, 2020

We are thrilled to announce that The Vidro was named one of the top 10 “Most Innovative Architecture Projects of 2020” by Fast Company Magazine after becoming a finalist in their 2020 “Innovation by Design Awards”.  A highly sought-after design awards in the industry, “Innovation by Design” is the only competition to honor creative work at the intersection of design, business, and innovation. 

Located in Harlem, NYC, The Vidro is a new six-unit residential building highlighting the potential of new buildings on small urban infill sites to help address NYC’s housing crisis.  Our research reveals that 59% of all remaining vacant NYC residential land is small – less than 2,600sf and 26ft wide. If these 12,500 small lots were all developed, they could yield over 75,000 new housing units – many of which could be affordable. The Vidro presents a unique design-based solution to the technical and economic challenges of building on small lots, showing how these challenging places can become viable for sustainable, community-oriented development.
