Good. Let's get going already with Tower 2.

Sucks that the NIMBYs chopped the height somewhat, but this will still be a major, landmark tower.

Brooklyn Rental Tower to Set New Record in Sustainability Push
-Downtown building will be the world’s tallest ‘passive house’
-Project follows NYC’s first all-electric residential property



By Jennifer Epstein
February 18, 2025


Quote:
A New York developer is unveiling plans for an apartment tower in downtown Brooklyn that will far exceed city and state energy-efficiency standards and be the tallest building of its kind in the world.

Alloy Development’s 63-story skyscraper is designed to meet “passive house” standards, including use of airtight insulation and heat recovery. Construction is expected to start this summer and once it tops out at 725 feet (221 meters), it would be the world’s tallest passive house, surpassing a 586-foot condo project that’s underway in Vancouver.
Quote:
The $500 million tower is the final piece of a development just north of the Barclays Center arena, where Alloy has already completed New York’s first all-electric residential property. The new building, dubbed One Third Avenue, goes beyond its predecessor in emphasizing sustainability, according to Jared Della Valle, an architect who is Alloy’s chief executive officer and co-founder.

The developer is moving ahead with the project just as owners of existing buildings are planning costly retrofits to meet new energy-efficiency standards. Alloy has found it’s “not materially more expensive” to build to meet high levels of sustainability, “it’s just process-wise more difficult,” Della Valle said.

The new tower will have 583 rental apartments – about a quarter of them affordable under city guidelines — as well as six floors of offices. The adaptive reuse of two 19th-century low-rises on the site will provide retail space.

The design threw me off, it’s VERY different from the earlier version.

Not to be crass, but this is a real boner killer.

Honestly this looks like nimby propaganda trying to stop the soulless glass box threatening their slice of paradise.

Yeah, this design sucks. It will just be tall filler. It's cool that it will be world's tallest passive house tho.

I have a colleague with a new construction passive house in Clinton Hill, Brooklyn. It's pretty amazing.

Let's face it. This design sucks.

The original design was fantastic. The second design looked bizarre, like something in North Korea or Uzbekistan. The "final"? design is just a boring blah box.

I like the size of the thing and the renderings of the base look very nice. But yeah, massive downgrade from the original design.

It will add some bulk to that area, but looks more like an office tower. Some classic setbacks would have helped here.

At least the facade looks good.

That design is unbridled atrociousness and skyline killing. The worst thing to come up from the burgeoning Brooklyn skyline is a modernist crap like this. It would be the worst skyline blunting since 1 Chase Plaza and the deleterious effects it had on the graceful Manhattan Downtown skyline.

This, as presented above in renderings, looks embarrassingly CHEAP and AWFUL.

Agreed, I dig the big windows and color at least, even if the shape is boring.

700+ feet in Brooklyn is alright too.

Not great, Bob!

The materials look nice and I'm sure it'll look great up close, but cuts a pretty grim figure against the rest of the Brooklyn skyline. Bummer!

How come Brooklyn's tallest building is left out of all the renders? This will have a lot different of an overall impact as a distant #2 compared to being the tallest building in all the renders on this page.

Hidden behind this tower.

I think i like the way this meets the ground more than the last design iteration. Also this façade shares a design language with its shorter sibling in a way so i guess that's good. I don't mind the revised massing as much as others here but i think it would be more pleasing if the top section tapered to more of a rectangular floorplate reminiscent of the initial massing that we all first saw when this project was proposed. Given this is Alloy's largest/tallest project to date i'm sure they want to play it a bit safe. Perhaps they could snag the site 5 project and continue to evolve into a bigger RE player.
