Pool for “decoration only” on this Williamsburg luxury condo’s roof
Eye On Real Estate
A Chinese developer is building a luxury condo project designed by a Dutch architect in Hasidic Williamsburg.
Is this a great town, or what? So cosmopolitan.
These nifty renderings depict the Oosten, the much written-about building that XIN Development, a U.S.-based subsidiary of Beijing-based Xinyuan Real Estate Co., is constructing on a two-acre site at 429 Kent Ave. with Piet Boon as the principal designer.
This is the developer’s first project in the United States, but Americans have been hired, and they’re making an effort to be mindful of the cultural mores of the Hasidic neighbors.
