Haute Residence
It is hard to deny the beauty of successfully blending old and new. Taking the best of the past and marrying it with the benefits of the present almost always produces something close to, if not, perfect. In Europe, buildings often outlive generations and remind us of times gone by. In the United States, a building is considered old after a few years and often becomes deemed teardown-worthy within a few decades. But when buildings are built well, technologically and design-wise, it is hard to deny their value. Renovating old is the new trend that New Yorkers should celebrate.
