The Parker

The Parker, a Gateway to Yonkers, accommodates a busy intersection and blends within the adjacent Van Cortlandt Park.

Mitigating the height, the building volume is articulated with two setbacks responding to surrounding context in conjunction with a separately articulated elevator/stair corner volume.

The building's lower levels utilize various architectural elements and features serving as a dynamic building base. Streetscape transparency lends to activating the Caryl and Broadway intersection.

Sustainability goals are achieved through the utilization of a high-performance thermal envelope, all LED lighting with daylight controls, and high-performance, right-sized, smart mechanical systems.

The Parker includes 160 units of affordable rental housing over 16 stories for low/ moderate income families and individuals. Additional building features include:

• ADA Accessible Units

• Mailroom with Amazon Hub

• Monitor with Bus Schedule Postings | At Lobby

• Rooftop Terrace
