With 249 living units, this 50-foot high micro hotel is the perfect example of how to use limited space efficiently. Using modular construction for this build also reduced carrying costs throughout the schedule to drive revenue sooner. The hotel offers four different room types ranging from 110 sq ft to 300 sq ft. The building includes shared amenities such as planted courtyard spaces, a ground floor restaurant and bar, a roof garden, and a rooftop bar. Intelligent design is used to optimize the functionality of each room and create a sense of spaciousness. Bathrooms are enclosed with glass dividers that visually expand the dimensions of the room, making it feel larger. Large windows are strategically placed to draw the eye outside. Each 10 by 30 foot module delivered to the site contained two rooms and a corridor. ## Timeline ![](https://www.vbc.co/hubfs/theme-2025/month.svg) 9 Months Total Construction Time ![days](https://www.vbc.co/hubfs/theme-2025/days.svg) 26 Days Module Set Time ![finished](https://www.vbc.co/hubfs/theme-2025/finished.svg) 6 Months Estimated Time Saved vs. Traditional Construction ## Building Specs: - **Number of Rooms:** 249 - **Square Footage:** 42,000 SF | 3,902 M2 - **Asset Class:** Hospitality - **Total Project Levels:** 4 - **Total Modular Levels:** 3 ## Project Team: - **Developer:** CB Development LLC - **Owner:** BD Hotels - **Architect of Record:** Garrison Architects - **General Contractor:** CM & Associates - **Modular Installer:** VBC ✕ ✕ ![PODbk-aerial_0101_hiRes (1)](https://www.vbc.co/hs-fs/hubfs/PODbk-aerial_0101_hiRes%20(1).jpg?width=4800&height=3600&name=PODbk-aerial_0101_hiRes%20(1).jpg) ![PODbk-aerial_0502_hiRes](https://www.vbc.co/hs-fs/hubfs/PODbk-aerial_0502_hiRes.jpg?width=4800&height=3600&name=PODbk-aerial_0502_hiRes.jpg) ![podH02_0108p](https://www.vbc.co/hs-fs/hubfs/podH02_0108p.jpg?width=1050&height=1575&name=podH02_0108p.jpg) ![podH02_0206p](https://www.vbc.co/hs-fs/hubfs/podH02_0206p.jpg?width=1050&height=700&name=podH02_0206p.jpg) ## Photo Gallery ![Image 2](https://www.vbc.co/hs-fs/hubfs/POD%20Brooklyn/B.%20Photo%20Gallery/Image%202.jpg?width=1050&height=700&name=Image%202.jpg) Exterior Courtyard ![pod brooklyn 2](https://www.vbc.co/hs-fs/hubfs/pod%20brooklyn%202.jpg?width=720&height=576&name=pod%20brooklyn%202.jpg) Mini Suite ![pod brooklyn 1](https://www.vbc.co/hs-fs/hubfs/pod%20brooklyn%201.jpg?width=720&height=576&name=pod%20brooklyn%201.jpg) Bunk Pod ![pod brooklyn 4](https://www.vbc.co/hs-fs/hubfs/pod%20brooklyn%20%204.jpg?width=720&height=576&name=pod%20brooklyn%20%204.jpg) Queen Pod ![1.
