Both 925 and 935 Pacific Street are being developed by the same group and share the same architect, Loading Dock 5. Number 925 (top) is the larger of the two, but we were only able to find info on Number 935 (bottom two photos). According to the architect’s website, Number 935 is a 10-unit, 14,000-square-foot residential development. If you’ve ever been on this stretch of Pacific, East of Washington, you will probably share our surprise at the ambitious nature of the project and be surprised to learn that, in addition to a rooftop terrace, the building will feature a spa in the cellar.

  1. As Brownstoner notes, the architect is Loading Dock 5. They were the architects for the first variance at 184 Kent in Williamsburg; Karl Fisher was the architect for the second variance, which was what launched the drive to designate the building.

    This is (or looks like it will be) a nice building, although the scale is troubling – mainly because everything around it is so small. The shifting facade helps to mitigate that somewhat, and the porches are a nice carry over from the old buildings. Regardless, pretty much anything here would be out of scale with those 2 story buildings.

  2. This is Pacific Blue. Here’s some more info from a Daily News Article from back in Jan:

    “Eli Karp is constructing five separate buildings on Pacific St. between Washington and Grand Aves., which will have a total of 70 condos. His development, called Pacific Blue, will have a 50-foot lap pool, rooftop cabanas and a screening room.”

    And this from the Real Deal back in Nov:

    “Another development starting sales in the next year or so will be Pacific Blue at 925-935 Pacific Street, a conglomeration of several buildings containing a total of about 70 to 90 units, Brendan Aguayo said.

    “These are going to be marketed as a new lifestyle, not really as separate buildings,” he said. “Each resident will get a Pacific Blue card, and they’ll be able to enter each building to take advantage of amenities. In one building will be a screening room, in another a gym, in another a business center, and the fourth will have a kids’ playroom.”

    The developer of Pacific Blue, Supreme Builders, is also doing a 16-story glass tower at 540 Saint Marks Avenue – one of the first glass structures in Brooklyn.”

  3. I’ve been keeping my eye on this one for a while. This project will help fill in the gaps of some of that block’s vacant lots. It’s fairly close to Washington and is part of a group of properties being developed in that general area. I never thought I’d see any condos in this area, but times certainly change.
