Near the Bridges, Huge Towers For Flatbush

We missed this Crain’s article last month about the condo boom along downtown Flatbush. Three of the biggest projects to emerge from last Summer’s rezoning efforts include:
1. 167 Johnson Place: 40-story and 35-story towers.
2. Flatbush and Tillary: Isaac Hager’s 400-foot-tall tower.
3. Myrtle East of Flatbush: Several 30-ish-story towers.
Not surprisingly, in the last three years, prices for a buildable square foot in this vicinity have gone from $75 to $150, according to Massey Knakal. Update: Turns Out Brooklyn Papers also covered the story recently. Check it out below.
