1 Willoughby Square

A contemporary take on the Brooklyn industrial loft, the office development meets the ethos of today’s creative enterprises.As the first ground-up office to be constructed in Downtown Brooklyn in decades, it was important that 1 Willoughby Square be anchored to its local heritage while forward-looking in its functionality. The iconic 34-story mixed-use tower is crafted to reflect its context while offering healthy and dynamic work environments for clients in the high-tech and creative industries. The building is organized to promote social and natural connectivity; a strategically located side core and column-free, exposed structure allows for wide-open work environments without obstruction and surrounded by daylight. The design is a contemporary take on the famed New York industrial loft with gridded, oversized windows, distinctive blue glazed brick spandrels, and exposed concrete structure. The base of the building houses a new 320-seat public school with its own entrance.
