- Excavation has begun for the 1.1 million square foot site, which will include 1,100 apartments.
- The project is tied to rezoning intended to spur thousands of new rental units and a federally backed cleanup.
- Architect Bjarke Ingels’ BIG studio is designing 175 Third Street for the project.
- Life Time executives describe the project as a marquee building for the area.
- The developer team includes Charney Companies and Tavros, active in the Gowanus corridor.
- Construction aims to deliver the project around 2028, with the complex serving multiple nearby neighborhoods.
