Overview

David Halberstam of Flatbush-based Bruklyn Builders has purchased the development site at 60 North First Street in Williamsburg for $15.6 million, according to an announcement from brokerage TerraCRG, as reproduced from Crain's New York Business. City records show the deed, dated Sept. 9, 2026, conveying the property from AG Realty LLC to 60 North 1st LLC.

TerraCRG describes the property as roughly 9,800 square feet. According to the same report, Halberstam plans to build a new mixed-use project on the site.

S3 Capital, led by Shawn Safdie, provided Halberstam with a $13.3 million loan to finance the acquisition, according to the report.

The purchase adds another Williamsburg development site to the portfolio of a builder described as extremely active in Brooklyn, and it was financed largely with private-lender debt covering most of the price.
