In 2015, the Landmark Preservation Commission (LPC) approved a sugar crystal-inspired overhaul of 10 Jay Street in DUMBO. Now, the rehabilitation of the building into class-A offices is in full swing and the leasing team, led by CBRE, has debuted a new website showcasing a batch of new renderings.

The commercial loft warehouse was built in 1897 as a sugar refinery for the Arbuckle Brothers. Its surviving red-brick facades are being restored and feature large arched windows. The unoriginal Manhattan-facing facade will get a contemporary facelift designed by ODA Architecture and will sport a prismatic curtain-wall inspired by sugar crystals and the Manhattan Bridge. The building sits directly east of the new condo building 1 John Street which secured the priciest sale in the borough last year for $8.1 million

At first, Manhattan-based developers Glacier Global Partners planned to convert the building into condominiums but a growing demand for Brooklyn office space proved too hard to resist. Per the new website, the 10-story building will feature large 23,000-square-foot floor plates, 14-foot-high ceilings, a gathering lawn, and more than 15,000 square feet of private rooftop-deck space. The stacking plan shows that 46,000 square feet of office space and 4,000 square feet of retail has already been leased. The Real Deal reported last year that marketing agency Translation LLC has signed a 35,000-square-foot lease in the building. The rehabilitation is slated for completion by year’s end.
