Facts
The tower complex forms a large arc facing south-east, with the 44-storey eastern portion of the entity -- on the Manhattan Bridge side -- towering over the lower, 19-storey mass facing the Bowery and Chatham Square (near which the previously tallest apartment development in Chinatown, the The Chatham Towers, is located).
Confucius Plaza was constructed as a multi-use apartment tower at the end of the Manhattan Bridge, where the constantly expanding Chinatown and the Lower East Side meet.
The facade is of uniform brown brick cladding, and the massing is enhanced by protruding portions and set-backs.
On the plaza in front of the building is a statue of the Chinese philosopher Confucius by Liu Shih.
In addition to the 762 apartments, the development also includes a school (the Public School 124), shops and community space as well as a day-care center. There is also an underground parking facility.
Tallest building in Chinatown.
