Bottomline Studio

Architectural designers shape the spaces we inhabit, but only a handful leave a mark on the cityscape. Bottomline Studio operates in that space, translating briefs into built form along a stretch of First Avenue where older structures meet newer demands. You’ll find them at 2170 1st Ave, New York, NY 10022, a no-frills corner where precision drafting meets real-world constraints. A call to (917) 905-6004 puts you in touch with the numbers and outlines. Their portfolio runs the gamut from reconfigurations to new construction, each project wrapped in the unglamorous work of zoning checks and feasibility studies. Interior fit-outs sit beside façade upgrades, while feasibility studies precede full designs, and space-planning sketches often precede permit applications. No two commissions arrive with the same blueprint—what stays constant is the studio’s willingness to dig into the mundane details most firms skip. The fastest way to plot your route is with the directions here: studio’s map. East Harlem’s grid keeps things simple—take the 6 train to 96th, walk south, and the address sits just past the bodega with the blue awning. That’s all you need to know.
