The first floor could potentially be retail, or it could be setup as live work space. My rendering has no windows in the back, but depending on the site chosen for this building, windows could easily be added. Also, the building could be made as long, as deep, or as L-shaped as necessary.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Fantasy Building Number 1 View 3 [PHOTO: Author]\" rel=\"lightbox-fillinginfantasybuilding1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rochestersubway.com\/images\/photos\/denker\/FB1\/Fantasy_Building_One_View_3.jpg\"><img style=\"margin-bottom:6px\" src=https:\/\/www.rochestersubway.com\/images\/photos\/denker\/FB1\/Fantasy_Building_One_View_3.jpg\" border=\"1\" alt=\"Fantasy Building Number 1 View 3 [PHOTO: Author]\" width=\"100%\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The building was inspired by a building I saw in Stillwater, OK while I was there a few weeks ago. That building is only two stories, but otherwise is very similar. <\/p>\n<p><a title=\"District Bicycles Building in Stillwater, OK [PHOTO: Google Maps]\" rel=\"lightbox-fillinginfantasybuilding1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rochestersubway.com\/images\/photos\/denker\/FB1\/District_Bicycles_Stillwater_OK.jpg\"><img style=\"margin-bottom:6px\" src=https:\/\/www.rochestersubway.com\/images\/photos\/denker\/FB1\/District_Bicycles_Stillwater_OK.jpg\" border=\"1\" alt=\"District Bicycles Building in Stillwater, OK [PHOTO: Google Maps]\" width=\"100%\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I liked the idea of extending the internal form an additional floor in a combination of many new buildings in NYC as well as the reuse of historic facades in Washington DC. Here are a few examples of those.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Red Lion Row in Washington, DC [PHOTO: Google Maps]\" rel=\"lightbox-fillinginfantasybuilding1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rochestersubway.com\/images\/photos\/denker\/FB1\/Red_Lion_Row_Washington_DC.jpg\"><img style=\"margin-bottom:6px\" src=https:\/\/www.rochestersubway.com\/images\/photos\/denker\/FB1\/Red_Lion_Row_Washington_DC.jpg\" border=\"1\" alt=\"Red Lion Row in Washington, DC [PHOTO: Google Maps]\" width=\"100%\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"500w21 in New York City, NY [PHOTO: 520w21.com]\" rel=\"lightbox-fillinginfantasybuilding1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rochestersubway.com\/images\/photos\/denker\/FB1\/500w21_New_York_NY.jpg\"><img style=\"margin-bottom:6px\" src=https:\/\/www.rochestersubway.com\/images\/photos\/denker\/FB1\/500w21_New_York_NY.jpg\" border=\"1\" alt=\"500w21 in New York City, NY [PHOTO: 520w21.com]\" width=\"100%\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t really have a vision for where this, or a building like it could go, although I think it&#8217;d look great over in NOTA on one of the surface lots over there.
