flag Fleet Landing seeks approval for a 32-story Brooklyn tower, sparking debate over river view protections and public access.

flag Fleet Landing Riverside has submitted plans for a 32-story residential tower at 111 Riverside Avenue in Brooklyn, seeking approval from the Downtown Development Review Board on March 12, 2026, after a prior acquisition attempt failed. flag The project includes a public plaza, pedestrian access to the Riverwalk, and a view corridor along Stonewall Street to the St. Johns River. flag While the design claims compliance with height zones, critics argue it violates setback rules meant to protect river views, calling the approval a loophole. flag Concerns remain over the auditorium’s public access and whether a restaurant will be open to all. flag Supporters say the tower supports downtown growth, noting bridges already offer strong river views. flag The DDRB’s decision will determine the project’s future.
