Project Description
FROM THE ARCHITECTS:
Rising 68 stories to 720 feet, Extell Development Company's first tower in the borough marks is the final phase of Downtown Brooklyn's City Point.
Brooklyn Point which is designed by KPF, will complement the character and quality of the previous City Point buildings - made possible by the rezoning of this special mixed use district. KPF is celebrated for its supertall architecture, such as the recently completed 555-meter-Lotte World Tower, South Korea's tallest building, One Bayfront Plaza, set to be Miami's joint-tallest building, and closer to home in New York, One Vanderbilt will overtake 432 Park as the second tallest building in the city.
The tower's façade features stacked frames that create sculptural relief accented by an interplay of light and shadow. The custom curtain wall’s double-height frames accentuate the verticality of the building and the facetted planes add depth and texture to the exterior. Designed as two folded sheets, the façade features reveals at the northeast and southwest corners and the crown angles up to a point thereby bestowing the building with an iconic profile.
The mixed-use tower will features 458 studio to 3-bedroom luxury residences with custom interiors and retail at its base. Over 40,000 square feet of services and lifestyle amenities at Brooklyn Point include abundant entertainment areas and unrivaled outdoor amenities. Located at 1 City Point (aka 138 Willoughby Street), residents will have internal access to City Point Tower, the home of DeKalb Market, Target and Alamo DraftHouse Cinema.
