One Willoughby Square, Office tower in Downtown Brooklyn, United States
One Willoughby Square is a 34-story office tower in Downtown Brooklyn with a facade of blue glazed brick, aluminum patterns, and expansive windows arranged in a T-shaped footprint. The structure houses a school on floors two through six and features three double-height floors with outdoor terraces designed for open work areas.
Construction started in 2018 after the property developer acquired the vacant parking lot site in 2014, converting an underused urban space into a mixed-use building. This development marked a significant moment in the ongoing revitalization of Downtown Brooklyn.
The building's design language draws from earlier New York skyscrapers, particularly in how its facade and proportions echo classical office tower traditions. This connection to the city's architectural past is visible in the way the structure relates to its surroundings in Downtown Brooklyn.
The building's location and layout make it easily accessible for pedestrians walking through the neighborhood. Keep in mind that the public spaces and terraces may have varying access depending on events and building operations.
The building uses an unconventional layout where mechanical systems and bathrooms sit at the edges rather than occupying the center core. This design choice frees up significantly more floor space for office tenants to work with.
