Situated at the northern part of Brooklyn where Newton Creek and the East River intersect, OMA New York / Jason Long s Greenpoint Landing residential towers have reached their latest phase of development; The North Tower is currently at 300 ft. and the South Tower is at 400 ft. The buildings are expected to provide 745 units of mixed-income housing, and will expand an acre beyond the existing esplanade, creating a new section of public waterfront that overlooks the Manhattan skyline.
The project consists of 745 residential rental apartments divided across 3 buildings, 30% of which will be affordable to various income families. 8,600 sq. ft. of retail space are dispersed along the ground floor, implemented to help activate the new gateways to the Greenpoint waterfront. A bridge linking the two towers together will house the pool and fitness programs, and provide a panoramic view of Manhattan and the waterfront.
