St. George homes

Built for St. George’s hillside streets

St. George climbs the hill above the ferry terminal, so a project here can be a 19th-century frame house with a steep stoop, an elevator building from the 1920s or a new apartment facing the harbor.

Victorian & frame houses

Queen Anne, Italianate and shingle houses in the St. George historic district, with high ceilings, bay windows and original trim that built-ins and bookcases are scribed to.

Prewar apartment buildings

Brick and masonry elevator buildings near Richmond Terrace and the civic center, where kitchens and closets are planned around small elevators and board rules.

New waterfront buildings

Recent rental and condo buildings near the ferry and the harbor, where standard fit-outs give way to custom closets, media walls and kitchen upgrades.

Hillside lots & stoops

Steep streets, terraced lots and long front stairs mean pieces are sized for the climb from the curb and the turns inside the house.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

Do you deliver to St. George from Brooklyn?

Yes. Our shop is in Industry City, Brooklyn, and pieces come over the Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge by truck on a scheduled day. Parking and the route up to the house are planned ahead.

Can built-ins be fitted to an older St. George house?

Yes. Pieces are built to final site measurements and drawings, so they can be scribed to walls, floors and ceilings that are no longer square.

What works best in a newer waterfront apartment?

Aluminum & glass closets, cabinet doors and shelving are popular for newer apartments, along with custom kitchens and media walls. Planika fireplaces are an option where the model’s room-size and clearance requirements are met.
