About the
Overbuild Process
The Carey Building, located at 314-320 E. State Street was a complex project involving constructing five floors of new construction on top of a historic 2 story concrete reinforced 2 story building. Extensive foundation and structural work were performed. The project contains ground-level retail, second and third-floor space for Cornell University’s REV Startup Ithaca and 18 micro-apartments and 4 2 bedroom units on the upper floor. The third floor has a terrace level opening from the third-floor office space.
