Development Watch: The Burg's Ainslie Tower

A mystery firm called the Sun Sun Corp. has snapped up several vacant industrial buildings in Williamsburg and is telegraphing its intentions via the name it’s registered the properties under: Ainslie Tower LLC. Sun Sun has purchased 467 Keap Street and 49-51 Ainslie streets, all of which are within spitting distance of the Lorimer L stop. According to DOB records, an application to build a 10-story residential structure at 467 Keap was made—and rejected—back in June. If the project happens, it'll rise on the same block as a new condo from TreeTop Development and an in-the-works mixed-use building from the Chetrit Group. Repeated calls to the Chinatown-based Sun Sun have shed little light on the would-be Ainslie Tower, though one person who answered the phone told us they’re building “condos and stores and stuff” there. Get ready, Williamsburg—more condos and stores and stuff on the way! GMAP P*Shark DOB
