Reaching New Heights (and Depths) in Dumbo
After what appears to be a very crafty bait-and-switch maneuver by Cara Development, Dumbo is on its way to getting its own special 33-story eyesore in the form of the J Condo. After getting a site-specific zoning change approved for the property at 100 Jay Street back in 2002 based upon plans for an 18-story project, the developer was able to pull the switcheroo as-of-right. Cara calls the 407,000-square-foot project an "easily recognizable icon [on] the Brooklyn Skyline." We call it bullshit. So much for contextual development. GMAP

It looks like Trump getho architecture style.

Anyone know who the architect is on this one? It's really disrespectful to the surrounding neighborhood.

someone pls do something to prevent this type of new vulgar development that will eventually cheapen the great neighborhood of Dumbo!!!

The Brooklyn Papers article lists Gruzen Sampton as the architect (and says the former design was by SHoP.
