Built in 2019, Corte is an 8-story, 85-unit residential and two-unit commercial mixed-use condominium designed by Argentinian architects Dieguez Friedman and New York-based Beyer Blinder Belle. CORTE is a bold building with clean lines and rich architectural details, featuring a contemporary façade composed of full-height Wicona-Italian glass windows wrapping a cascade of “jewel box”-style units, creating a visually stunning experience.
