Brooklyn, NY Greenland Forest City Partners’ 38 Sixth Ave., one of Pacific Park’s two all-affordable properties, has topped out. This marks an important milestone in the construction process and makes the building one giant step closer to opening its much-needed, below-market rental units.

Designed by SHoP Architects and being built by Tishman Construction, 38 Sixth Ave. will include:

• 303 apartments

• 23 stories

• 8,700 s/f of retail and medical offices on the ground floor

• An underground parking facility.

This topping out comes at an exciting time for Pacific Park Brooklyn, when other properties on the site are hitting important milestones:

• Last month, the affordable housing lottery for 461 Dean St. closed after receiving 84,000 applications for181 below-market units

• 550 Vanderbilt, one of the luxury properties at Pacific Park Brooklyn, had sold over 50% of its units. Today, over 140 apartments at the site are now in contract.

When completed, Pacific Park Brooklyn, will add 6,430 new units of housing across 14 residential buildings; 2,250 of these apartments will be designated as affordable and set aside of low and middle-income New Yorkers.
