Joint Venture to Develop 213-Unit Affordable Housing Project in Brooklyn

NEW YORK CITY — A joint venture between Slate Property Group and Thorobird Cos. will develop a 213-unit multifamily project in Brooklyn. Designed by Think! Architecture + Design PLLC, the building will be located on a city-owned site at 570 Eldert Lane in the borough’s Cypress Hills area. Of the 213 units, 66 apartments, which will come in one-, two-, three- and four-bedroom floor plans, 66 will be set aside for formerly homeless residents. The remaining units will be reserved for households earning between 40 and 80 percent of the area median income. The building will also have 10,000 square feet of community space that will be operated by the Bangladeshi American Community Development & Youth Services. Completion is slated for summer 2028, with full occupancy planned for 2029.
