The Alloy Block
The Alloy Block broke ground last summer as one of the most ambitious new projects shaping Downtown Brooklyn. Bounded by Flatbush Avenue, Schermerhorn Street, 3rd Avenue and State Street, the first phase, which is slated for completion in 2024, will include the city’s first all-electric residential tower at 505 State St. and two public schools designed to meet Passive House compliance for energy efficiency.
Rising 44 stories and 480 feet, the residential tower will be home to 441 mixed-income units with rents starting as low as $750.
(In its second phase, a second residential tower will climb nearly double that height to 840 feet.)
When it’s complete, the Alloy Block will consist of 850 new residences, including approximately 200 affordable apartments, 200,000 square feet of Class A office space and 40,000 square feet of retail.
“Our impact can be provocative,” said Della Valle. “It’s such an interesting time. There’s a public health crisis, job market volatility, logistics challenges, inequality, a sustainability crisis — it’s all part of the daily discussion in Brooklyn.”
