But at their first meeting with New York–based Lichten Architectstalk quickly shifted to “gut renovation.”

“The façade was the only thing that stayed,” Kenner says now, three years later. “For a while, we didn’t have a roof. We didn’t have a floor. We dug out the basement, we added a top floor, we added terraces. If I showed you the before and after, you’d be like, ‘What?’”
