Permits Filed For 29-Story Tower At 75 Dekalb Avenue In Fort Greene, Brooklyn

Permits have been filed for a 29-story mixed-use building at 75 Dekalb Avenue in Fort Greene, Brooklyn. Located at the intersection of Flatbush Avenue and Dekalb Avenue, the lot is steps from the Dekalb Avenue subway station, serviced by the B, Q, and R trains. The property is owned by Long Island University, but RXR Realty under the LIU PII Developer TRS LLC is listed as the owner behind the applications.

The proposed 348-foot-tall development will yield 288,849 square feet, with 242,868 square feet designated for residential space and 45,981 square feet for community facility space. The building will have 275 residences, most likely rentals based on the average unit scope of 883 square feet. The concrete-based structure will also have a cellar, a 30-foot-long rear yard, two commercial loading berths, and 198 enclosed parking spaces.

Perkins Eastman is listed as the architect of record. RXR Realty also teamed up with Perkins Eastman for the neighboring The Willoughby, a 34-story mixed-use building at 196 Willoughby Street on the Long Island University campus.

Demolition permits have not been filed yet. An estimated completion date has not been announced.

Just to reiterate the comments over at NYY, no this isn't the Paramount Theater building.
