Pasquarelli and the SHoP team took inspiration from one of their previous designs - the Brooklyn Nets’ home arena, Barclays Center, on Atlantic Avenue, which opened in 2012 and is just blocks away from the Brooklyn Tower. Brooklyn Tower, at 1,066 feet, is the tallest building in Brooklyn. Naked to the elements, the covered floor will be most utilized during the warmer months as any basketball court, Pasquarelli said. “These wind floors are performative,” Gregg Pasquarelli, founding principal at SHoP, told CNN.
