Both in the public imagination and for native New Yorkers, Brooklyn's unique energy is what makes it great -- it's a borough that has retained the power to surprise and a willingness to be bold that its denser, stodgier neighbor across the East River sometimes seems to lack. Downtown Brooklyn's City Point development is a case in point, and represents a makeover so daring, dramatic and -- yes -- green that it could probably only happen in Brooklyn.
A vast new development that will seek LEED Silver recognition, City Point will rise above a helix of mass transit options at the nearby Atlantic Avenue subway and LIRR hub, and will include 520,000 square feet of new retail space, a lush new public space in Willoughby Park, and a host of residential apartments, as well as 360,000 square feet of class-A office space. City Point's striking glass-walled looks and sophisticated building management systems compliment some remarkably expansive floor plates, with City Point offering to 50,000 square feet of airy class-A office space on each floor. A LEED Silver hopeful that sits at the center of Downtown Brooklyn's emerging new hub, City Point is appealingly ambitious, impressively sustainable, and distinctively Brooklyn.
