One Willoughby Square Begins Vertical Ascent Above Downtown Brooklyn



Quote:
Located in Downtown Brooklyn, One Willoughby Square, aka 420 Albee Square, is going to be a new 500,000-square foot Class-A office tower. The 18,000-square foot site is situated across the street from City Point and Brooklyn Point. As of now, work on the 34-story, 495-foot tall development is climbing above the fifth floor. It is being designed by FXCollaborative and developed by JEMB Realty. Gilbane is in charge of construction.

Recent photos from above the location show progress. The future site of Willoughby Square Park has not started work yet. Underneath the northern section of the entire property will be a sub-level parking garage. Excavation and foundation work would have to be finished before the park can begin. Not only will local inhabitants, tourists, and workers get to enjoy the new greenery in the middle of the downtown area, but this green space would give enough breathing room between One Willoughby Square and Extell’s 720-foot tall Brooklyn Point residential tower.
