TWO “DANCERS” BY OMA ARE NEXT PHASE OF BROOKLYN PROJECT
A pair of 400- and 300-ft.-tall towers containing 745 residential rental units, designed by OMA's New York office to resemble two dancers, has been revealed as the next phase of Greenpoint Landing in Brooklyn, New York, dezeen is among news outlets to report. OMA partner Jason Long is leading the project, featuring the towers shaped like "a ziggurat and its inverse" overlooking Manhattan across the East River. The structures will be separated by a 60-ft.-wide gap and joined by a glazed box housing a pool. Additional amenities in what represents Greenpoint Landing Block D (and OMA's first Brooklyn project) will include outdoor space atop the stepped areas of the taller tower. Greenpoint Landing is being developed by Brookfield Properties and Park Tower Group.
