"The proposal features connected concrete and glass towers rising along 3rd Street between the canal and 3rd Avenue. Gridded facades with chamfered corners and exposed structural elements give the development a distinctive look."
"A key part of the project is a 28,000-square-foot public esplanade along the Gowanus Canal, designed by Field Operations in collaboration with the city's Parks Department, and required by the terms of the rezoning."
"The revised plan almost triples the number of apartments while increasing the building's height and density. Charney Companies principal Sam Charney said the development team selected BIG after a competitive process."
Developers Charney Companies and Tavros Capital revealed updated renderings for a project designed by Bjarke Ingels Group and dencityworks|architecture. The development includes connected concrete and glass towers along 3rd Street, rising 16 stories with a total of 27 stories. The complex will encompass 1.08 million square feet, featuring retail, artist workspaces, and amenities. A public esplanade along the Gowanus Canal will provide recreational spaces and stormwater management. The revised plan significantly increases the number of apartments and building density compared to earlier concepts.
