Another Brooklyn Highrise on the way?
The Brooklyn Paper: Take a number: Demolition of Downtown DMV building could mean more luxury apartments BY JAIME LUTZ Quote:
Green Marker is the building being demo'd... http://farm3.staticflickr.com/2813/1...19fb080a_o.jpg Google Maps |
Notice there are three low-rise 60's office buildings in that pic at the corner of Flatbush and Fulton, and all were included in the upzoning a few years ago.
This is the first of three to go, but I think eventually all three office building sites will be home to highrise residentials. I know one of the two remaining is only offering short-term leases and has a demolition clause, so you know what that means. |

I've said it before but... This area, right along Flatbush is probably the one of the best places for development in the entire city. The best transit options anywhere at Atlantic av, right next to the beautiful brownstone-y parts of Ft Greene, lots and lots of great pubs and restaurants, and Ft Greene park is pretty good.
I just hope they don't waste the opportunity by building something ugly. |
I'd like to see more development along the sides of Prospect Park. That area is very nice. Almost like NY's Hyde Park IMO. Flat bush is beautiful. I'm usually in Manhattan, but I did take a trip one day and walked the length of Flat bush from Prospect Park, and was pleasantly surprised. I hope it becomes a canyon one day of high rises.

Here's some zoning information I found. I'm not sure what it all means, so maybe somebody more familiar with zoning rights could fill me in!
Forest City, Avoiding Default on 10 MetroTech, Will Demo for Residential BY NORMAN ODER 6/05/2013 2:24PM Quote:

It would seem at least on paper something rather tall could go here, although like that article said 80 DeKalb could have used some of its rights.
There are tons of 300-550ft towers going up all over that general area, it would need to be 600 + to be impressive. |

this area (basically Grand Army Plaza to Barclays to BAM to Fulton market to DT Brooklyn) has the potential to evolve into the most interesting neighborhood in NYC, let alone Brooklyn.

When I noticed that 600,000 marker, given the area, it will be huge for the borough. Hopefully something goes down on this site because this is a great opportunity. 500 FT + possibly. Its a small site. I think something within the 45-55 floor range could be a possibility.

Very interested to see what gets developed there. It's a great location (they're all great in that area). |
I wouldn't say this "parcel" is canceled just yet. Something may spring up again down the line, but for now, this is crappy news.

That base is amazing. Nice to see Brooklyn get more and more big, new office buildings.
