General presentation & introduction

1118 LORIMER
Itir Aloba-Curi and Rick Curi purchased the 1118 Lorimer Street building along with some family members and friends with the dream of restoring the building and bringing it up to the 21st Century. The property will remain as 3 rental apartments (floors 2-4) and a commercial space (ground floor). It has been our intention to open a charming fine dining/hospitality establishment on the ground floor that would offer chef driven small plates in an intimate setting. Based on widespread feedback from residents in the area, we are confident the neighborhood would welcome such a business.
With the emergence of COVID-19 and the resulting restrictions on businesses, it is impossible to be certain about the feasibility of our dream establishment. However, the commercial space is a large component of the value (and purchase price) of the building, so we intend to create a functional and attractive storefront that could be used for our original concept or one of many other commercial endeavors that would be appropriate for the space and neighborhood. Also, after performing large scale renovations to the building’s façade (and interior), we feel the derelict condition of the existing storefront impairs the value of the residential component.
The interior renovation is expected to be completed by the end of February or early March, and has taken more time (and cost more) than expected due to unknown/undisclosed fire damage which had required significant structural work, including an entirely new roof structure. The existing mechanical, electrical and plumbing infrastructure was also determined to be inadequate for the property, and has had to be completely replaced.
The current façade is not historically significant, allows for very little light, and is not structurally sound. As it exists, the façade gives a feeling of a derelict property and is a magnet for vandalism. Our goal is to bring a bright and clean store front to the prominent cornerstone of the neighborhood, adding beauty and life to our block.
