31-Story Tower to Join Greenpoint Landing Waterfront Development
The newest addition to the 22-acre Greenpoint Landing waterfront development located at the northwestern corner of Greenpoint, named One Bell Slip, will be a 31-story residential tower according to pre-filings by Brookfield Property Partners with the Dept. of Buildings, The Real Deal reports.
The One Blue Slip tower opened last summer for leasing and at $3,023 per month currently offers the most expensive studio apartments for rent in Greenpoint, according to StreetEasy.
The new residential building will have 380,000 square feet and 408 apartments, part of the total 5,500 total apartments planned at Greenpoint Landing which is adjacent to the soon-to-be cleaned Nuhart Plastics Superfund site.
Last summer, Brookfield announced a deal with Park Tower Group to buy into 1,240 units at Eagle and Commercial streets in two new towers financed with an $89 million loan from the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China.
Toronto-based Brookfield, who has for years been one of Governor ‘Amazon’ Cuomo’s largest donors, is also behind one of the current largest private residential developments in the Bronx and is one of the largest real estate developers in the world.
