Since the Ascent at Roebling's Bridge is pretty much wrapped up, I thought I'd explore the building from ground level.
The building is extremely cold at ground level and doesn't relate to its surroundings in any way.
And despite being connected to a bridge spanning two states (and a future neighborhood), it completely lacks pedestrian connectivity.
In short, it has been designed to be easily entered and exited by automobile.
Designed by architect Daniel Libeskind, Corporex built the $55 million, 22-story condo tower at the foot of the Suspension Bridge in Covington.
