Brooklyn Bridge Park seeks developer for northern property
A new residential building is coming to the DUMBO waterfront. Brooklyn Bridge Park (BBP) today released a Request for Proposals (RFP) for the lease, development and operation of a vacant parcel at the northern end of the park.
The waterfront lot is located on the waterfront just north-east of the Manhattan Bridge in the future John Street section of the park in DUMBO. The site allows for up to 130 residential units with a maximum height of 130 feet, up to 110 parking spaces and ground floor retail.
This section of the park is approximately 1.5 acres and will serve as the Park’s northern entrance. The build-out of this section is fully-funded and will include an innovative waterfront design, pedestrian bridges over tidal salt marsh, tree-lined pathways, and a 13,000 square foot gathering lawn.
