In an article published by New York YIMBY, scaffolding was removed to reveal the stunning TerraClad® Sunshade on the western elevation of 688 Broadway, 1 Great Jones Alley. Madison Reality Capital’s 688 Broadway is a 12-story, mixed-use structure designed by BKSK Architects, containing 16 residential units and retail spaces on ground level.

Boston Valley Terra Cotta manufactured the terra cotta fins that face outward on Broadway Street, in addition to a terra cotta feature wall located at the end of the private entranceway at 1 Great Jones Alley. The sunshade was created using the extrusion forming method and the wall tiles for the entranceway were fabricated using the RAM Press forming method.
