The light-colored brick that will make up the facade is climbing the steel and concrete skeleton at Hudson Companies’ high-rise on Flatbush Avenue in Prospect Lefferts Gardens. The shape and look of the 23-story tower is now visible over the neo-Tudor facades of the recently landmarked Chester Court.

The brick at 626 Flatbush Avenue is up to about the 13th story. The building topped out in January. The architect is Marvel Architects and it should be ready for occupancy early next year.

  1. Oh I know. Whomever took this photo had to lterally lay down on the sidewalk to get this shot. Trying so so hard From some angles in the park it doesn’t look any higher than the 17 story pair of buildings that comprise Patio Gardens two blocks from this. And Ebbets Field houses buildings are visually much higher than any of these because it’s a huge tall building on elevated ground. I can’t believe people are still trying to claim those several decades old buildings don’t exist.
