CoPa Breaths New Life into a Dilapidated Brooklyn Townhouse
The nearly two-century old building in the rapidly changing Gowanus neighborhood required myriad structural interventions and features a design that maximizes space.
Renovating a fixer-upper is always a gamble, especially when it's a nearly two-century-old, structurally compromised and gutted townhouse in Brooklyn.
A couple hired Brooklyn- and Los Angeles–based Cordero Pardee (CoPa) to reenvision the structure, which now incorporates a rental property on the ground floor and well-conceived living spaces above.
The three-story project was completed in January 2025 and features precisely detailed finishes, creating a compact home that suits the couple's pared-down aesthetic preferences.
The townhouse is sited on a narrow lot in Gowanus, Brooklyn.
