Toren, a 38-story condominium tower located at 150 Myrtle Avenue in Downtown Brooklyn, was completed in 2010 and designed by the renowned architectural firm Skidmore, Owings & Merrill (SOM). Its distinctive and dynamic façade features asymmetrical patterns and energy-efficient glass panels in contrasting light and dark shades, creating a visually striking appearance. The building houses 198 market-rate units and 42 affordable condos.
A hallmark of Toren is its sustainability. It holds LEED Gold certification and boasts an on-site cogeneration plant that efficiently provides power, heating, and cooling. Additional green features include Energy Star appliances, occupancy sensors, low-VOC materials, and optimized ventilation systems, ensuring both comfort and eco-conscious living.
