You can soon party inside one of Brooklyn’s most famous buildings
An events venue is in the works at the Williamsburgh Savings Bank Clocktower Building.
The owner of the landmarked banking hall inside the Williamsburgh Savings Bank Clocktower Building plans to turn the iconic space into an events venue.
Madison Realty Capital owns the glamorous ground floor and basement at the 1920s clock-topped Fort Greene skyscraper, which is arguably Brooklyn’s most famous building — and, not arguably, once its tallest.
The real estate firm has tried to rent out the vacant banking hall as retail space, but it turns out that people want to use it “to shoot movies, have parties and have events,” Nick Liberis of architecture firm Archimaera said at a city Landmarks Preservation Commission hearing on Tuesday.
