Proposed 2nd-Tallest Residential Tower In Brooklyn Enters Public Review Phase
Briefly

A new high-rise apartment tower, potentially the second-tallest in Brooklyn, has entered the public review phase. Planned for 395 Flatbush, the residential project aims to create around 1,200 apartments, with approximately 300 to 360 being permanently affordable for low- to moderate-income residents. Developers aim to upzone the site, currently zoned for commercial use. The project includes public infrastructure improvements, expanded sidewalks, and green space, alongside 66,000 square feet of retail and 75,000 square feet of commercial space.
"All on top of one of the biggest transit hubs in the city. The new 395 Flatbush will be a major addition to the skyline, towering high as the second-tallest building in Brooklyn," Adams said at a Real Deal forum in May.
"395 Flatbush is the latest example how an underutilized commercial building can be reborn into something the City needs-vibrant, multi-functional space that delivers on the kind of planning this moment in time requires," Ahmed Tigani, the acting commissioner for the NYC Department of Housing Preservation and Development, told PIX11 News in a statement.
