A rendering has been revealed for 2446 Fulton Street, a planned 11-story residential building in Cypress Hills, Brooklyn. Designed by IMC Architecture, the structure is expected yield around 300 rental units along with amenities and ground-floor retail space. The property is located at the corner of Fulton and Sackman Streets, next to the five-story 2440 Fulton Street commercial building.
The rendering looks east along Fulton Street from the entrance to Callahan-Kelly Playground. The massing features three protruding volumes clad in pale green brick, with the one at the northwest corner set at an angle, adding variety to the building’s geometry. The bulk of the structure will rise two stories higher behind with a light gray brick façade. A staggered fenestration with corner windows along the edges of the protruding volumes will create a serrated impression on the main northern elevation, and the ground floor will feature floor-to-ceiling windows for the retail frontage. Two bulkheads will sit atop the flat roof.
The property is currently occupied by low-rise commercial buildings.

Further details on the housing programming and a construction timeline for 2446 Fulton Street have yet to be revealed.

Where will I get my lumber?
Where will I get my supply?
Not a great design, but it’s great it doesn’t look like all the other new stuff today. There’s no reason the lumber store couldn’t reopen inside the new building, but developers never think this far ahead. Meanwhile, the glut of empty retail space will only continue.
This looks really promising.
What a dream it would be though to have that green be copper. Yummy.
Also, this is East New York.
Another FOOD DESERT 😂
