Recently completed, 300 Huntington Street is a mixed-use, ground-up commercial development in Red Hook, Brooklyn at the southern end of the Gowanus Canal. Dattner Architects designed the project in collaboration with Bernheimer Architects and SCAPE Landscape Architecture for Monadnock Development, who will be the anchor tenant. Hazel Village, a handmade toy manufacturer, will have workshop and showroom space in the building. Retail space opens to the shore public walkway, anchoring the canal frontage.
300 Huntington provides a privately-owned, publicly accessible esplanade on its property, a gateway to the mile-long shore public walkway planned for the Gowanus Canal. Tenants will also have access to shared terrace space and the recently completed waterfront park.

The design incorporates sustainable and resilient design features that conserve resources and reduce costs. The building’s green roof has integrated vegetation that absorbs rainwater and provides other conducive elements to endorse and practice sustainability principles. Additionally, the property will include absorptive tree plantings using structural soil and a lifted grove.
