Otis tells ELEVATOR WORLD it is providing five traction elevators for 1515 Surf Avenue in Coney Island, Brooklyn, NY. Designed by Studio V Architecture and developed by LCOR, the property consists of 26- and 16-story towers that will offer 461 residences, including 139 that are affordable. The 26-story tower will be served by three Otis units and the 16-story tower, two. New York YIMBY reports that 1515 Surf Avenue is continuing its ascent, with completion anticipated in spring 2024.
