107-125 King Street

Construction Underway on 22-Townhome Development at 107-125 King Street, Red Hook

It was in December of 2014 when YIMBY first reported on applications for a 22-townhome development spanning 109-125 King Street and 74-84 Sullivan Street, in Red Hook. We later revealed renderings on two occasions in 2015, and now the project is under construction, the Brooklyn Daily Eagle reports. Excavation, along with foundation work, is well underway on the townhouses, dubbed King & Sullivan Red Hook Townhomes. The homes will rise three stories above street level and should average a spacious 2,381 square feet apiece. Sanba Partners is the developer, AA Studio is behind the design, and Jeffrey Cole Architects is serving as the architect of record. Completion can be expected later this year or in early 2017.
