Construction is complete on 276 Bedford Avenue, a two-story commercial building in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. Designed by DJLU Architects, the 15,492-square-foot structure is situated on a 2,736-square-foot lot at the corner of Wythe Avenue and North 1st Street. Tri State Commercial is in charge of leasing and marketing the divisible retail space.
Photographs from early September show the finished look of the façade, which is composed of earth-toned brick with trapezoidal floor-to-ceiling windows on the first level, standard rectangular windows on the second floor, and a strip of light-red paneling lined with black borders that runs up along the corners and stretches across the parapet. A small mechanical bulkhead is situated toward the western side of the flat roof.
Some construction barriers and fencing remain around the property but should be removed in the coming weeks.

A series of small downward-pointing light fixtures will illuminate the vertical slits in between the windows on the first floor, adding a distinctive appearance to the façade at night.

276 Bedford Avenue’s floors measure 2,500 square feet on the cellar level, around 2,400 square feet on the ground level with 120 feet of street frontage, and just under 3,000 square feet on the second level, which will feature skylights for additional natural light exposure.
The site vacant as late as 2021 before construction commenced. The nearest subway is the L train at the Bedford Avenue station.

Yikes.
Looks like that asphalt faux brick siding from the 50s. Kinda gross.
Flush windows and hideous mixed color brick tile. Just look away…
Pretty sure this is not “at the corner of Wythe Avenue and North 1st”.
Wow, they did a great job recreating the housing project look and feel.
I just opened this up on my desktop and the badness is even worse than I thought.
Awesome .Glad it’s done.
