Kent Avenue Rising: 184 Kent

August 23rd, 2007 · No Comments


Curbed had this rendering a while ago, but we figured it’s worth revisiting in the context of our review of some of the buildings going up on Kent Avenue in Williamsburg. This is 184 Kent, the Austin Nichols warehouse building that was the subject of that bitter landmarking fight two year ago in which the building was landmarked and, then, unlandmarked, with Council Member David Yassky helping to lead the anti-landmarking charge. The building will come back to life with 358 apartments, two additional floors, a rooftop pool, a landscaped interior garden and rents of $3,000 for a one-bedroom apartment.
