Dock 72 is a contemporary waterfront office building that promotes innovation and collaboration while navigating the environmental issues of a complex site and engaging with the Brooklyn Navy Yard community. Dock 72 is highly visible from Brooklyn, Manhattan, and Queens and has 360-degree views of the city. Built on a former drydock, it is raised above the 100-year flood plain on 20 V-shaped columns that support the weight of the 16-story structure and allow water to naturally flow beneath the building.
