Note: I think there is an error in this article. How can 19 floors = 120 ft...?
Looks like they are going for very short ceiling heights of 6 feet or so. One way this can be 19 floors. Still, such ceiling heights are kinda not the norm lately hence my prudent nature on this article.
If anybody can confirm that this is accurate, please share the confirmation. For now the title remains, but I will change it if the numbers are indeed different.

Project: 321 Wythe Avenue
Quote:
Last month, DNAinfo reported that the struggling Saints Peter and Paul Catholic Church in Williamsburg had leased its large property to Watermark Capital, and the agreement had some unusual stipulations, banning “activities associated with abortion, birth control, euthanasia, stem-cell research or pornography.” Now plans have been filed to erect a 19-story apartment building at 321 Wythe Avenue, on the western half of the through-block church property.
The mixed-use development will reach 120 feet into the air between South 2nd and South 3rd Streets, two and a half blocks north of the Williamsburg Bridge. It will hold 130 apartments stacked on top of 4,868 square feet of community facility space on the ground floor. The apartments will be divided across 99,130 square feet of residential space, for average units of roughly 760 square feet.
The community space, lobby, and parking garage will fill the first floor, followed by two floors of amenities and outdoor terraces. Residential will begin on the fourth floor, with seven to nine units per story through the 17th floor, four units on the 18th and three units on the 19th floor.
The first floor parking garage will have 92 parking spots—just enough to satisfy zoning requirements.
