NEW YORK CITY — M&T Bank has provided a $78.7 million acquisition and construction loan for the purchase of land in the Williamsburg neighborhood of Brooklyn and development of a mixed-use project. The borrower, Two Trees Management, plans to build two mixed-use towers with 1,000 multifamily units, a 47,000-square-foot YMCA fitness facility, 57,000 square feet of office space and 30,000 square feet of retail space. Additional ground-level space will house amenities and a six-acre public park. The proposed project will be located along the East River on River Street, between Grand and North 3rd streets. Bjarke Ingels Group designed the project and James Corner Field Operations served as the landscape architect. Total cost of the project and the construction timeline were not disclosed, as Two Trees is seeking a rezoning.
