Development Watch: 525 Clinton Avenue

We’ve been watching the development of 525 Clinton Avenue, the 13-story project between Atlantic and Fulton, with interest since work started last Fall. With its glass exterior now almost 50 percent finished, we decided to dig a little deeper and get the skinny straight from the developer (who, it turns out, is the same group that built the Green House Condos). When it’s completed in the first quarter of next year, there will be 30 market-rate condos atop a community facility, which will most likely be medical offices. It’ll be a mix of 1-, 2- and 3-bedroom units, with the lion’s share being two bedrooms. The big selling point is likely to be the combination of light and views, given the building’s height and unusual shape, which will ensure that each apartment has a ton of windows. The developer is using an unusually thick (4 inches) and energy-efficient glass called Visionwall designed to minimize heating and cooling bills. The layouts and interior design are being done by Stephanie Goto who’s done a number of restaurants as well as the sleek-yet-understate interiors at 448 West 37th Street in Manhattan. That’s about all we got. We’re just hoping this will be the shot of adrenaline that Fulton Street needs.
