In mid-June, construction began at 325 Henry Street in Cobble Hill, one of several residential projects underway by Avery Hall Investments.
The site was purchased for more than $7.75 million in 2014 and recently, Avery Hall received a $18.75 million construction loan from Bank Leumi USA, and partnered up with OTL Enterprises and Allegra Holding to continue development.
The four-story project will stand on the corner of Henry Street and Atlantic Avenue, a site previously occupied by a Shell gas station.
BKSK Architects have been tapped as the designers. Its exterior will be clad in hand-laid red-brick, to pay homage to the masonry found in the brownstone-filled neighborhood. Large industrial-sash windows will add a contemporary flair to the facade. The architects sought to maintain the corner's openness, which the gas station had provided, by including floor-to-ceiling windows. Though, during the Landmark Preservation Commission's approval process, the windows proved to be a contentious feature.
