Construction is finishing up on 106 Frost Street, an eight-story residential building in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. Designed by Kao Hwa Lee Architects and developed by Yisroel Greenfield, the 79-foot-tall structure spans 13,499 square feet and yields 20 rental units with an average scope of 674 square feet. The building also contains parking for ten vehicles. The property is located by the intersection of Frost Street and Meeker Avenue.
Recent photographs show the nearly completed façade, which is composed of a white and gray cementitious surface surrounding a grid of large windows framed with black mullions. Setbacks on the upper levels are lined with black railings for terraces, and columns of balconies are positioned on either end of the main northern elevation. The building culminates in a flat parapet with two mechanical bulkheads set back along the windowless eastern and western lot line walls. Exterior work is still wrapping up on the first two stories, while interiors should be closing in on completion as well.
The property was formerly occupied by a two-story warehouse, as seen in the below Google Street View image from before its demolition.
The nearest subway from the development is the L train at the Metropolitan Avenue station, which offers a transfer to the G train at the Lorimer Street station.
YIMBY expects 106 Frost Street to complete construction this spring.

I see the former building’s ground floor inspired the new ground floor design. And it’s ready for spray paint again.
When glancing towards the balcony of a neighboring building, there shouldn’t be a problem separating them: Thanks.
I love
