55 Berry's new neighbor will be TWO big

Curbed tossed us a building bone today (and yesterday) regarding a new kid on the block. A tipster for Curbed dished out some details:

125 North 10th is actually two distinct residential buildings,
built on a through lot running between North 10th and North 11th
Streets, off Berry. Earmarked for a zoning change, planning began
immediately upon contract signing.

Built using traditional and modern materials, the facades of the
buildings represent a modern, clean style - typical of our firm's work.
Following the Quality Housing Zoning Restriction, the building height
was limited, while additional floor area made the building
approximately 15% larger. Apartment sizes and styles are varied for
greater appeal in the market. Providing over 50% of the apartments with
parking, a fitness center, laundry, storage and electronic amenities proved a winning combination for sales. -Curbed

It will probably run about $1000 per foot when its all said and done- not really, but close.  This hood is TOO HOT!

Just in case you're interested, here are a few pics of the building that used to stand here. It had some of the most amazing art on the streets (in Williamsburg) a couple of years back.  Everything changed for me the night i saw this wall had been destroyed.
