No, this is not Park Avenue! This is Atlantic Avenue. Atlantic Avenue will soon replicate Park Avenue in terms of density along the corridor. Perhaps a greenway will make up the median.
Rezoning profile: This rezoning is part of Adam’s “City of Yes” initiative. Now we’ll have two Park Avenue’s. This rezoning spans from Vanderbilt Avenue near Pacific Park to Nostrand Avenue. Say hello to increased density, Brooklyn. This rezoning should not be confused with the Broadway Junction rezoning or the East New York - Atlantic Avenue rezoning.
Current conditions: Low rise industrial buildings.
That project is a “spot rezoning”, it’s within the rezoning area, but is technically not apart of the rezoning. The Atlantic Avenue rezoning will encompass multiple projects, including these “spot rezonings” that were developed/rezoned before this rezoning comes to fruition. @Mackensen
This is the next “Gowanus” for Brooklyn, there is so much going on on Atlantic, and also in Pacific, Bergen, etc…this area of Crown Heights is going through a renaissance.
