In a breakthrough at the slow-moving Pacific Park project, big-league New York developers TF Corners… The Greenland-led partnership also said on Monday it would break ground in early 2019 on a long-stalled, 500-foot-tall apartment tower next door to Barclays Center. A rendering of the project is shown here for the first time. ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/yimby/original/3X/7/c/7c6771e8dfc1c0db71b5814035293e289fb3eb4d.jpeg) ---

Glad to hear this whole development is still moving forward. The new redesign looks good. This is what the taller one looked like before ( the old SHoP design.). It would be cool to have the uniformity of all 3 building being the same. But the first 2 are a bit cartoonish. The new design looks more elegant and modern. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/yimby/original/3X/5/4/5468ece4fad615f83dc39672ac82c5d02a1cd5a7.jpeg) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/yimby/original/3X/9/8/98053fd259c31841cf7e9c2f2efb2749734c4acb.jpeg) ---

The new design reminds me of CetraRuddy’s 500 summit design. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/yimby/original/3X/2/6/26911999c257dab6c233a73ba7ff1180e05d8b71.jpeg) ---

I think they may be starting here soon. The previous articles from last fall stated they would start in early 2019. ![IMG_20190403_153817](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/yimby/original/3X/b/0/b0e4591dcc6f7356556cebe1801e18a012dbda9b.jpeg) ---

Wonder how long before the mall on the other side of Atlantic gets redeveloped, all that air space. ---

Looks good! I still would have preferred Ratner not implode and instead build out the full Gehry-envisioned complex. ShoP’s arena looks great, but in the end its a favorable result from a half measure. I still wonder what we could’ve seen here if Extell had developed the area when they were making a stink about the project all those years ago. ---

The Gehry plan would have been a massive landmark. Now anywhere, USA. ---

I had never heard that Gehry had a design proposal here. Looked pretty cool. Definitely would have been more of a landmark. ![1989709_orig](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/yimby/original/3X/3/2/3274267e44abf62607545046c75fd94f1d9b7857.jpeg) ---

Wow, that is some tortured archibabble in that slideshow. Really stretching it with this pretentious nonsense about a sculpted gem. Is anybody really buying that as the design inspiration? But eh, it’s not hideous. Just build it! ---

Yeah that’s some BS about it being a sculpted icon. No way. I agree - it is decent though. Just build it. ---
