The Hudson Companies, the folks who brought you the J Condo in Dumbo, are gearing up to build a series of townhouse condominiums on a 50-by-90-foot lot at the corner of 3rd and Bond Streets in Gowanus that the company purchased at the end of May. (The Brooklyn Eagle cites a price of $7,775,000 but PropertyShark says $4,975,000.) The site actually comprises five lots (Numbers 107-119) for a total footprint of 15,600 square feet. With an FAR of 2.43 3, the developers should be able to build about 38,000 square feet of residential space as of right according to our calculations, though The Eagle story quotes a Massey Knakal broker saying that the number is actually 46,728 square feet of residential space. Hudson’s David Kramer says the project will include about 50 units spread out over nine or 10 townhouses. Rogers Marvel will do the design. It’ll be very interesting to see what the appetite will be in this area for what will presumably pretty high-end product.
