Dermot's BAM-Area Tower to Start Rising Very Soon
Man, it seems like they’ve been digging the humongous hole for the Dermot Company’s high-rise residential tower at 29 Flatbush for years—which they have, since the official groundbreaking was in late 2010—but a construction worker at the site on Monday said steel should start rising within the next couple weeks.

Man, it seems like they’ve been digging the humongous hole for the Dermot Company’s high-rise residential tower at 29 Flatbush for years—which they have, since the official groundbreaking was in late 2010—but a construction worker at the site on Monday said steel should start rising within the next couple weeks. Here’s the official line from a spokesperson for the developer: “The project is continuing as anticipated with a superstructure that will begin to rise this spring.” The building, which will top 40 stories, will have 327 studio, one- and two-bedroom rentals. It’s being built in the development-heavy BAM Cultural District/Downtown Brooklyn border zone.

Seems the final appearance is undecided, as the architect’s site (http://www.ilarch.com/ ) shows the tower with and without brick skin.
IMO, the most interest facade is thankfully the one on Flatbush, you can see it on slide 4 of the project on the site. Cool observatory notch!
Also, from the renderings, it seems that the building will use different addresses for each entrance – and parking entrance (200 friggin’ spaces that will residents will never use – overkill!) will be on Rockwell Place.
