Simon Baron Development unveils plans for state of the art office building in Greenpoint
Simon Baron Development announced plans on Monday for 12 Franklin St., a seven-story boutique office building on the Greenpoint/North Williamsburg border designed to help alleviate the dearth of Class A office space for small businesses in an area booming with residential development, dining and nightlife options. The project is bounded by Franklin Street, Meserole Avenue, Gem Street and North 15th Street.
The announcement comes as the New York City Planning Commission is expected to certify the project, which requires a zoning text amendment and special permit, to begin the Uniform Land Use Review Process on Monday. Over the past several months, Simon Baron has met with a number of local and citywide stakeholders to solicit feedback on the proposal.
