Development Update: Towers and More Towers

A few development developments:


Community Board 1 approved the 40-story Palin project on West Street in Greenpoint.

Meanwhile, some folks in South Williamsburg want towers, as a way to combat displacement and gentrification. (See also Michael's editorial about the city's proposed cuts to programs designed to help with just these problems.)

The plans for The Viridian on Green Street were released.


The movie theater on Metropolitan is closer to opening.

Curbed says that some waterfront projects are tanking.
