Work Underway on Son of Roebling Oil Field

Roebling Oil Field West
It looks like work is underway on the phase two of the Warehouse 11 development (aka W-11 and/or the Roebling Oil Building). The developers bought the property on the Driggs Avenue side and will be putting up a 70-foot high Karl Fischer building with 54 units. Per an email:

This morning there was a pile driver working away on the N. 10th side of the fab W-11 site. I guess they’re expanding. Pity about all the balconies in the back…

It would be a safe bet the Roebling Oil development is intended to take up the entire block. It will be interesting to see what, if anything, oozes out of the ground when the holes are again dug at the Oil Field.
