THROOP CORNERS
88 Throop Avenue
Project Overview
Throop Corners is a new construction of 140 units of affordable energy-efficient multi-family residential housing in the Broadway Triangle neighborhood of Brooklyn, New York City. This building was the first building to break ground in the Broadway Triangle project, in approximately December 2021, under the leadership of RiseBoro Community Partnership, United Jewish Organizations of Williamsburg, Southside United HDFC-Los Sures, and St. Nicks Alliance.
The building will serve a mix of family sizes and income levels, including an emphasis on larger unit sizes and a set-aside for formerly homeless individuals and families. The building will be an all-electric passive house building with solar energy and outdoor green spaces.
The building will also include a 6,000+ SF community facility space housing a Workforce Development Center operated by St. Nicks Alliance.
The building is being built on city-owned land which was awarded through an RFP process, and represents the culmination of a long history of community-led effort to secure this site for affordable housing that welcomes a diversity of residents from this vibrant area of Brooklyn.
