Carter's Review

The Boerum is a handsome, 19-story condo/hotel development at 265 State Street at Smith Street in the Boerum Hill section of Brooklyn.

It is expected to be completed in 2016 by the Carlyle Group and Flank and it was designed by Flank, whose other projects include 224 Mulberry Street, the Abington and 441 East 47th Street, and Goldstein Hill & West. It is Flank’s first project in Brooklyn and its biggest. Its principals are Jon Kully and Mick Walsdorf.

The residential condominium section of the building begins on the 7th floor and will have 128 apartments.

It is across from the Central Courts Building and close to Atlantic Avenue.

Bottom Line

This large and attractive apartment and hotel complex has a striking interwoven façade treatment with several setbacks, multipane windows and good amenities in Boerum Hill.

Description

The building has a red-brick-and-stone façade and some setbacks.

The complex façade is distinguished by an interweaving of the different colored façade elements.  The building also has some corner windows, an entrance marquee, some inset multipane windows and some protruding cast stone window surrounds.
