Plate 43 of 102BrooklynBrooklyn Community Board 1
Greenpoint Hospital (Buildings 3 and 4)
This site can hold about 420–531 homes under the zoning maximum for qualifying affordable housing. The top of that range is set by the dwelling unit limit (ZR 23-52); qualifying senior housing is exempt from it and could hold up to about 597. The City's LIFT tracker lists 243 homes across its 2 records for this site.
The tracker lists two buildings on this tax lot. The figures are for the lot, counted once.
- Greenpoint Hospital Building 3 (SARA): 106 homes, Post Public Approval The tracker's 106 matches the Brooklyn Borough President's 2021 description of Building 3 as a 106-unit senior building; City Planning's 2021 report gives 107 studios plus a superintendent's unit.
- Greenpoint Hospital Building 4 (ELLA): 137 homes, Post Public Approval The tracker's 137 matches City Planning's 2021 report for Building 4 (136 affordable homes plus a superintendent's unit); HPD's 2024 filing gives about 109 plus a superintendent's unit.

What City documents say
Facts from City documents that bear on the figures below. Each is quoted in the sources, and each speaks as of its document's date.
Buildings 3 and 4 share tax lot 3028850025
HPD's Local Law 125 report lists both Greenpoint Hospital Building 3 (SARA) and Building 4 (ELLA) on Block 2885, Lot 25, so this page shows them together.
Occupied 200-bed shelter in the former hospital
As of June 2024, the former Greenpoint Hospital building on Lot 25 still housed the 200-bed Barbara Kleiman Residence shelter. The plan moves the shelter to the renovated Nurses' Residence (Lot 35) and converts the hospital into senior housing (Building 3).
Laundry in old power plant to be demolished
Building 4 is planned where the hospital's former power plant, used as a City homeless-services laundry, now stands. The 2021 plan relocates the laundry and demolishes the building.
Large-scale development permit governs the campus
The campus was approved in November 2021 as a Large-Scale General Development (C 210481 ZSK) with R7-2 and R7-2/C2-4 rezoning (C 210480 ZMK), MIH (N 210482 ZRK) and disposition (C 210483 HAK). Height, setback and spacing are set by the permit and a restrictive declaration, which ties each phase to its share of about 70,650 sq ft of public open space.
Lot 25 is one zoning lot with Lots 1 and 35
Former Lot 1 was split in 2021 into Lots 1, 25 and 35. HPD's 2024 filing gives Lot 1 as about 51,874 sq ft, with Building 2 planned there; MapPLUTO now records condominium lot 7501 (89 Maspeth Avenue) on the block, with the same 51,874 sq ft. The Buildings Department filing states that the three lots remain one zoning lot, so floor area is shared across the four-building project. The figures here are for Lot 25 alone.
Restrictive declaration modified in 2024
In 2024 HPD obtained a minor modification of the project's restrictive declaration (M 240405 LDK) so the Phase 2 building could receive a temporary certificate of occupancy separately from Phase 1 open space. HPD's application said no other changes to the terms for completing the publicly accessible area were proposed.
Lot 25 is one zoning lot with Lots 1 and 35
Former Lot 1 was split in 2021 into Lots 1, 25 and 35; Lot 1 is now condominium lot 7501 (Building 2). The Buildings Department filing states that the three lots remain one zoning lot, so floor area is shared across the four-building project. The figures here are for Lot 25 alone.

In 2024 HPD obtained a minor modification of the project's restrictive declaration (M 240405 LDK) so the Phase 2 building could receive a temporary certificate of occupancy separately from Phase 1 open space. No other open-space terms were changed.
What can legally go here
Floor area follows exactly from the Zoning Resolution. Homes are a range, because unit size and building efficiency are choices.

Homes, as a range

| High | 531 | 361,021 sq ft × 0.85 ÷ 514 sq ft = 597, capped at 361,021 ÷ 680 (ZR 23-52) |
Floor area × efficiency ÷ average home size. Efficiency 0.7–0.85; average home 514–599 sq ft. Assumptions and their basis.
What binds first
Dwelling unit limit
The dwelling unit limit (ZR 23-52) holds the site to at most 531 homes, fewer than its floor area could hold at the smaller home sizes in the range. Floor area still limits the size of the building.

What gets in the way
Flags are flags, not verdicts. Each comes from a public layer, named in the sources.
- Caution
(E) designation E-629
An environmental requirement (hazardous materials) must be satisfied before the Department of Buildings issues permits for new development.
- Caution
The lot has buildings on it
The lot has 2 buildings on record with 127,279 sq ft of gross building area and 45 homes, completed around 1910 (MapPLUTO; gross area includes space zoning does not count). Zoning counts floor area already on a lot toward its maximum, so the figures above are the most the land could hold in total, not what could be added while those buildings stand.
- Note
In a Mandatory Inclusionary Housing area
MIH options 1 and 3 apply, so new housing here must include permanently affordable homes (ZR 27-131).
Nearest subway station: Graham Av (L), 0.3 mi in a straight line.
What this doesn't account for
Public data and the zoning text answer the questions above. These need information that is not public, or a decision that belongs to the City.
- Public land use review (ULURP). Selling or leasing City land, or approving a housing project on it, generally goes through ULURP (community board, borough president, City Planning Commission, City Council), and this estimate does not presume the outcome.
- Disposition of City property (Charter 384 / UDAAP). Transferring the land needs Mayoral approval under Charter Sec. 384 and, for HPD projects, usually Urban Development Action Area designation and project approval under NY General Municipal Law Article 16.
- Environmental review (CEQR/SEQRA). Any discretionary approval, disposition or City funding triggers CEQR/SEQRA review, which can require mitigation (e.g. for hazardous materials, noise or historic resources) or reshape the project.
- (E) designations. A lot with an (E) designation or environmental restrictive declaration for hazardous materials, air quality or noise cannot receive building permits until the Office of Environmental Remediation signs off.
- Subsurface and site conditions. Unknown soil, rock, groundwater and contamination can shrink or eliminate cellars and add foundation and cleanup costs, and HPD requires every project to investigate and, if needed, remediate contamination.
- Deed restrictions and reverter clauses. Land the City bought or sold may carry deed restrictions or reverter clauses limiting its use, which must be checked in title records (ACRIS) and DCAS's deed-restriction database.
- Parkland alienation. If a site is municipal parkland, it cannot be sold or used for housing without an act of the State Legislature signed by the Governor.
- Current occupants, uses and agency plans. Many City-owned lots are in active use or assigned to an agency, or have funded capital projects, and this estimate does not reflect relocation needs or agency plans (check COLP and the Capital Commitment Plan).
- Mapped streets, easements and utilities. Mapped-but-unbuilt ('paper') streets, sewer and water easements and utility lines can take land out of the buildable area, and no permit may be issued for a building in the bed of a mapped street.
- Street access. A lot with no frontage on a mapped street cannot get a building permit on its own and must be combined with a neighboring lot or have access mapped.
- Landmarks review. Sites that are individual landmarks or inside historic districts need Landmarks Preservation Commission approval, which can limit demolition, height and bulk.
- Flood-resistant construction. Sites in the 1% annual chance floodplain (or the 0.2% shaded X-Zone for critical facilities) must meet Building Code Appendix G, whose elevation and floodproofing rules can cost usable ground-floor and cellar space.
- Airport height limits. Near JFK, LaGuardia and Floyd Bennett Field, zoning flight-obstruction surfaces cap building height, and tall structures anywhere need FAA notice.
- State and federal funding conditions. Federal or State money brings its own requirements (e.g. HUD environmental review under 24 CFR Part 58, Davis-Bacon prevailing wages, Section 3 hiring) that can change cost, timing and program.
- Zoning capacity is a ceiling, not a plan. The figures show what zoning allows, and actual HPD projects often build less, for example to fit neighborhood context, a community facility or funding limits.
