Second Development Services’ Downtown Brooklyn condo project appears to be getting taller. A new permit application has the building at 27 stories, up from the originally planned 20.

The application for 88 Schermerhorn Street calls for 23 units. The property is currently home to an historic walk-up building, but demolition permits were filed in November.

SDS purchased the project site for $11 million in the Fall of 2014, setting a price-per-buildable-square-foot record in the neighborhood, according to Curbed.
