Mapping the Building Boom in Prospect Heights

Better late than never. We forgot to run this map of the Prospect Heights development pipeline that the good folks over at The Real Deal put together a couple of weeks ago. The bottom line: There are more than 20 residential projects underway or slated for the booming nabe. In addition to the interesting news that all 27 of 39 units at the Washington Condos are sold, the article had some other good details:
The developer of Pacific Blue, Supreme Builders, is also doing a 16-story glass tower at 540 Saint Marks Avenue one of the first glass structures in Brooklyn. Architect Richard Meier is also leaving his mark on Prospect Heights with a glass tower, a reflection of his Perry Street high-rises in Manhattan. The 15-story building at 17 Eastern Parkway will have 119 units and is being developed by Mario Procida of Seventeen Development LLC.
Part of what’s driving the building boom is the number of oversized lots and the presence of a lot of disposable structures like body shops. Price per buildable square foot is in the $100 to $150 range.
