Designed by architecture firm Sam Wieder Associates (SWA) with one-and-two-bedroom units, exclusively, the layouts range from 550 s/f to 1,100 s/f and include a penthouse unit with wraparound terrace. The project, which has a 35-year, 421A tax exemption and 70/30 affordability component based on the local A.M.I., is projected for completion in 2021.

 “I was born and raised in Bay Ridge, where there has been virtually no new construction in years,” said Michael Niamonitakis, co-founding principal of Meridian Properties. “This is an exceptionally personal project for me and my partners, so we made sure to include great layouts and amenities, as well as access to beautiful Brooklyn views.”
