ONE BROOKLYN BRIDGE PARK COMPLETE

NEW YORK CITY — New York-based Newmark Knight Frank Construction Services has completed One Brooklyn Bridge Park, a $175 million residential redevelopment project in Brooklyn, New York City. Construction consisted of the conversion of a 1.1 million-square-foot distribution center located at 360 Furman St. into luxury condominiums. The building was first constructed in 1929 and was formerly owned by Jehovah’s Witnesses before being acquired by RAL Companies & Affiliates, the developer of the project, in 2004 for $205 million. Two additional floors were built on top of the previously 12-story building, and the interior was reconfigured to include 438 residences. The units range in size from 588 to approximately 10,000 square feet and include loft apartments, townhomes and penthouses. Many units feature terraces cabanas and fireplaces. Building amenities include a residents-only recreation facility, 7,000 square feet of landscaped gardens, an indoor virtual golf driving range, and on-site valet and concierge services. The project also includes 70,000 square feet of retail space and a 500-space parking garage. The project architect was Creative Design Associates. One Brooklyn Bridge Park is situated within an 85-acre waterfront park that is currently under construction in the borough’s Brooklyn Heights neighborhood. Once complete later this year, the park will stretch along 1.3 miles of the East River.
