NEW YORK—Harlem just got shinier. The formidable team of Jeff Bennett and Refik Radoncic have just completed construction on their first of two WindowsOn123 apartment buildings in central Harlem.

“It’s like creating a piece of art,” said Bennett. “To take a piece of land or a dilapidated building and make it beautiful.”

Bennett and Radoncic joined forces to form R & B Development in 2003. And with Radoncic’s existing T & R Construction company put into the mix, the ability to build quality without all the middlemen costs. Many of the 180 construction workers are craftsmen from Eastern Europe.

The larger of the two WindowsOn123 buildings has 26 units, with a common gym, a 3,000 sq. ft. rooftop terrace, and 15 parking spaces—seven of which come with their own Smart Car. There are 6 one-bedroom units, 16 two-bedroom units and 4 three-bedroom penthouse apartments. There is a large bottom duplex with more than 1,000 sq. ft. of outdoor space.
