The Hamilton, as the building will come to be known upon completion, is located at 968 60th Street in Borough Park, the home of a building that was used as a fully functional factory for many decades, but is now being converted by Halcyon Management Group. Currently expected to be completed in the latter half of 2016, the project is the work of renowned architect, Karl Fischer.

2014's Highest Rent Markets: Where Does NYC Rank?

Zillow calculated the average rents in the nation’s biggest metropolitan markets for 2014, and the NYC area doesn’t even rank in the highest five (pretty not bad for the country's most livable city).  As has been reported previously, California rents topped the list, occupying four out of the top five spots.  Curiously, San Francisco’s average ($1,598), which in previous months had beat out New York’s ($1,228), was actually the second highest — the region with the highest rents was actually San Jose, which was calculated to have an average monthly rent of $1,807.
