Built in 2022 at the corner of Marcy Ave and Metropolitan Ave in Williamsburg, this former bank site now houses a mixed-use HPD building. The building features a two-tone façade of white brick and bronze-colored cladding, complemented by expansive windows with views of Our Lady of Mt. Carmel-Annunciation and Sister Nicoderma Plaza. It's 8 floors accommodates 123 apartments and 2 commercial spaces, with amenities including parking, an exercise room, and a roof terrace. Notably, 37 units are designated for income-restricted lottery, contributing to the area's diverse community. The architecture includes a rounded front with curved glass windows that harkens back to the 19th century Parisian apartment buildings. The ground-level retail spaces with lofty ceilings and large windows enhance the neighborhood's pedestrian-friendly appeal amidst the shopping districts.
