In an exclusive fed yesterday to the New York Post's Steve Cuozzo, More than 1K new apartments coming to Barclays Center area, we learn that not only is Greenland Forest City Partners proceeding with B4 (now dubbed 18 Sixth Avenue), the giant tower at the northeast corner of the arena block, it has sold three remaining sites on terra firm to another development partnership

This new surprise--there's always something--means that 664 Pacific, the tower with a school planned just east of the arena block, might get started early next year, with the long-delayed middle school likely by 2021. It also means that Pacific Park (formerly Atlantic Yards) will in fact be accelerated by the presence of multiple developers.

The deals are expected to close at the end of this year, according to the Post. Greenland also reiterated to the Post, as it has stated before, that it would break ground "in early 2019" on B4, next to the arena, and supplied a rendering. It did not, however, discuss the unit mix, including the number of affordable units.
B4, at 511 feet, was long slated to be the second-tallest and second-bulkiest tower, after B1, aka Miss Brooklyn. It would retain that status even if most of the B1 bulk gets moved across the street to Site 5, as is planned. As of August 2014, B4 was to be a mixed building, with 213 condos and 551 rentals, half of them affordable. Condos now are less likely.

Brodsky principal Dean Amro said its site at 664 Pacific St., would be the first new Pacific Park project to rise. “We hope to start construction in the first quarter of 2019,” he said. The building will include some 300 rental apartments, about 30 percent of them affordable, atop a new middle school.
Jeremy Shell, a principal of TF Cornerstone, said its buildings at 615 and 595 Dean St., at the complex’s eastern end, need a bit more time. “We’re planning our buildings within the site’s design guidelines, basically a 12-18 month process,” before construction will start. Cornerstone’s pair will have a total of 800 rental apartments as well as stores and parking facilities.
Meanwhile, Greenland/Forest City said it’s begun designing a deck over the sunken Long Island Rail Road train yard which runs along the site’s northern edge. That will allow development to start at six sites along Atlantic Avenue between Sixth Avenue and Pacific Street.
