A tipster sent in these photos of Avalon Fort Greene and The Toren, which sit across Myrtle Avenue from each other at the intersection with Flatbush Avenue Extension, with the brief note, “Both of these buildings are going up quick!” Indeed. As we noted earlier this month, Avalon is rising at a pace of close to two stories a week. Toren, meanwhile, is almost completely glassed over. It’s cool to see some critical mass and density in the works here.
Cue “Toren will be rental soon enough” haters in 3…2..1..
Just fyi, Avalon is rental and Toren is condo.
Toren is a good reason to live in Avalon, so you can see Toren, and not the other way round.
CB6 – I can see the Catsimatidis work site from my living room. There is a crew working today. the structure is still only up to the 1st floor, but it is getting bigger.
It’s slow, but not asleep.
I agree the Toren is a good looking building. Very different from most of the new residential high rises.
Nate Gray!
The Toren building is quite striking and beautiful. I’ve never seen anything like it before.
I absolutely love the look of Toren.
I was looking at their website the other day, and noticed a good majority of the units seem to have sold.
what about Catsimatidis on Myrtle and Ashland? Avalon and Toren rise while it naps.
