Directly east of Columbia University’s, where the street grid drunkenly turns askew for only two blocks, is the Malt House; a former brewery at 461 West 126th Street that went through an ambitious renovation to become a mixed-use commercial and retail hub. 700T of structural steel were used in order to preserve and rehabilitate the two conjoined century-old buildings (1917) and build a shimmering 8-story, 90-foot addition above.
