505 State Street
505 State Street is a mixed-use tower that is part of a full block development in Downtown Brooklyn that is on track to become the most sustainable block in Brooklyn. 505 State Street is New York’s first All-Electric skyscraper powered by local renewable energy. Located at the intersection of Flatbush and State Street on a podium of 4 stacked triangular volumes that twist and set back along state Street to provide some relief to the lower scale buildings to the south while staying straight along Flatbush Avenue. The building was completed in Spring 2024 and houses 441 apartments, 45 of which are affordable units and retail at grade and below along Flatbush Avenue.
505 State Street is built with good design, thoughtful amenities, and sustainable principles that offer a more impactful way of living. Yafa, a local Brooklyn based coffee shop is located at the entry to the residential lobby welcoming residents and the local community. Apartments feature exposed concrete ceilings, large energy efficient triple paned windows, built in cabinetry and appliances, induction cooktops, and smart thermostats. Building amenities include a roof deck which includes a pool and sky lounge as well as a gym, play space, screening room, and workspace on the double height second floor. Unique to the building is the Grow Room, a tech- free meditation space that is filled with plants and open to residents who want to relax, read a book and be surrounded by nature.
The team has promised to deliver the most sustainable block in Brooklyn’s history, and the first phase includes NYC’s first all-electric skyscraper, the city’s first passive house public schools, and Brooklyn’s first LEED community. We are living in a climate emergency, and we have the capacity to address this challenge to show how we can live sustainably in Brooklyn.
