"While large-scale projects dominate Williamsburg's waterfront, smaller residential developments are also thriving in the neighborhood."
As the Williamsburg waterfront is rapidly transformed by high-rise developments, smaller projects are also taking shape across the vibrant Brooklyn neighborhood. YIMBY has captured the progress of six low-rise residential buildings, ranging from sites near the East River to those further inland.
One such project is the five-story building at 19 Monitor Street, developed by local firm Cayuga Capital Management. The building will feature 18 apartments and a rooftop terrace. Nearby, at 111-113 Kent Avenue, developer KUB Capital is constructing a six-story, 29-unit building with a rooftop pool and shared outdoor space.
Heading further inland, at 389 Union Avenue, developer Adam America Real Estate is working on a six-story building with 20 apartments and ground-floor retail space. The firm is also behind the five-story residential building at 170 North 1st Street, which will have 11 units and a rooftop terrace.
Meanwhile, at 105 North 13th Street, a six-story building is being developed by Driggs Development and designed by RKT&B Architects. The building will have 24 apartments and a rooftop terrace. And further north on Manhattan Avenue, at 164 Norman Avenue, developer The Hudson Companies is constructing a seven-story building with 60 apartments and ground-floor retail space.
While these smaller projects may not generate as much buzz as the high-rise developments along the waterfront, they are still contributing to the ongoing transformation of Williamsburg. And with more low-rise residential projects in the pipeline, it's clear that developers are eager to cash in on the neighborhood's growth.
