Aerial View of Jay Z’s Home in the Projects

Possible Drone Used: DJI Phantom 3 Pro

The DJI Phantom 3 Pro, a top-performing drone in its time, continues to capture stunning shots like this one of the projects in Brooklyn, New York. Providing a bird’s-eye view of the area, this clear photo sheds light on the unique architecture and high population density of the public housing.

With Marcy Houses alone housing more than 4,000 residents and Brownsville totaling 25,000, it offers a glimpse into the reality of urban living. Interestingly, billionaire rapper Jay Z grew up in the Marcy Projects and later bought a stake in the same place. Since then, some changes have been made, including steps toward environmental sustainability.
