First look at Cobble Hill’s 400-foot tower at LICH redevelopment River Park

Fortis today will launch a new website for River Park, and with that comes new renderings and information for the three buildings that will comprise the second phase of the development. Fortis had filed plans for those towers—now known as 1, 2, and 5 River Park—last year, but now, Curbed can exclusively reveal more details about the buildings. Let’s break ‘em down, shall we?

Let’s start with 1 River Park, or 350 Hicks Street. That building will rise 15 stories, with a design by FXFOWLE, and will have just 48 apartments ranging from studios to three bedrooms. (There’ll also be three penthouses.) It’ll also have an “amenity pavilion” with an outdoor pool and gardens.

The tallest of the three buildings will be 2 River Park, or 339 Hicks Street. Designed by Hill West Architects, the tower will rise 440 feet—a slight increase over the previously reported 411 feet—and will have studios, and one- to four-bedroom apartments. It’ll also come with a bevy of amenities, including a “sky park” that will capitalize on the building’s sure-to-be-ridiculous Manhattan views.

And finally, 5 River Park (aka 347 Henry Street) will have what the developer calls a “contextual” design, rising just 15 stories with 26 apartments. They’ll range from studios to four-bedrooms, and the building itself will be designed by Douglas Romines (and it’ll also have its own private pool).

“What we don’t want this River Park project to feel like is a single, cohesive design that’s just a large mass plopped down,” Fortis CEO Jonathan Landau told Curbed this spring, which led the developer to choose three different architects, all of whom designed around the master plan.
