Fall News from Studio Delson

With autumn in full swing, we’re writing with recent news about our studio. Read ahead about some of our latest architectural projects, and to learn about art and community events we are hosting this fall.

A spotlight on two of our recent projects:

Upper West Side Brownstone

In this Upper West Side Brownstone, we restored a classic rowhouse and added modern rear and rooftop extensions that create dramatic, double-height spaces, increase outdoor access, and flood the interiors with natural light. Features include suspended terraces, a rooftop retreat with a hot tub, custom kitchen, cellar gym, and an elevator serving all seven levels—balancing historic elegance with contemporary family living. Associate Firas Maatouk was project lead.

Turtle Bay Apartment

For this Turtle Bay Apartment, located in an iconic 1960s Harrison and Abramovitz tower, we stripped away a clumsy 1980s remodel to reveal dramatic views of the UN and East River, restoring the apartment’s historic geometry while introducing a sleek, art-forward design. With a modern open layout, custom lighting, and tailored palettes that honor mid-century roots, the renovation balances architectural legacy with contemporary comfort, perfect for art display, entertaining, and everyday urban living.

Our Boerum Hill House is featured in Magnolia Network’s Where We Call Home, now streaming on HBO.

Check out the 14-minute episode, featuring Perla Delson, which expands on architectural details not included on our website and delves into the space’s rich and multifaceted history. Find behind the scenes details on our Instagram, too!

Our current artist exhibition continues!

We are pleased to invite you to the artist talk and book signing by exhibiting artist Victoria Sambunaris on 10 December at 6:00PM. RSVP required for building entry. Space is limited.

Through her large-format photography, Sambunaris presents a nuanced portrait of the industrial cargo trade that passes through our ports and waterways alluding to the current political climate and global precariousness.
