An elegant, dark, contemporary residential tower rises on a prominent site within an historic district in Brooklyn.
On the site of a former four-story bank in the Borough Hall Skyscraper Historic District, BBB designed a 20-story, 121-unit residential tower that won approval and praise from the New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission. The building’s distinctive design pays subtle homage to the area’s historic architecture with its verticality and dark, rhythmic facade, which features a polished black granite base, profiled glass fiber reinforced concrete (GFRC) piers, bronze-tone metal detailing, and charcoal-grey colored window frames.
