Ithaka Terraces
Ithaca, NY
A new multi-family pocket neighborhood comprised of four smaller buildings, two fronting West Spencer Street and two fronting West Cayuga Street. They are connected by a landscaped series of stairs and terraces going up the hill, effectively creating a new pedestrian connection between the two streets. Each of the four buildings are three stories tall and contain three dwelling units, for a total of 12 units. Pocket neighborhood developments are dense, small-scale residential projects that fit within the existing neighborhood context while offering an alternative and sustainable lifestyle choice for residents.
