Existing studios and office rentals at 47 Hall Street (between Park and Flushing Avenues) will undergo renovations to become brand-new “modern, creative office space” for the area’s booming tech and manufacturing industry, reports Crain’s, which notes the building is under contract to be purchased for $160 million by RXR Realty and Westbrook Partners.

The improvements will include extensive renovations and the creation of ground-level outdoor areas and terraces for tenants.
The building is the second property that RXR Realty, the owner of trophy Manhattan properties, including the Starrett-Lehigh Building and 75 Rockefeller Center, has acquired in Brooklyn. Last year, it purchased a long-term leasehold on 470 Vanderbilt Ave., a large office property near the Barclays Center.

Other nearby sites for new office space include 29 Ryerson Street and a WeWork coworking space inside the Navy Yard.
