The preliminary diagram posted on the construction board is oriented north, showing a T-shaped massing with the majority of the building’s frontage along Halsey Street and a long, narrow annex stretching to Fulton Street. Several portions of the superstructure are cut out to form setbacks, multifaceted elevations, and interior voids. Three bulkheads top the ends of each roof parapet. The highest portion of the development will be on the northern side facing Halsey Street.

Very unusual footprint. Been watching this one come along for a while. And obviously the square footage and unit count has to be much greater than what you are indicating here given the size of the development.
Has there ever been a precedent for a building going up like this? I would imagine that middle space in the city block being reserved for backyard space
That top rendering looks like serious pomo barf.
Damn straight.
A hotel in this stretch of Bed-Stuy would be un-precedented. Between this and the Billie Holiday performing arts center that is going up down the block, Bed Stuy’s Fulton will be unrecognizable in 5 years.
