The Williamsburg Savings Bank Building has been bought by Canyon-Johnson Urban Funds, an investment concern started by “Magic” Johnson, and the Dermot Co., which plan to renovate the landmarked, 35-story tower into condominiums and ground-floor retail space.

Canyon-Johnson and Dermot bought the nearly 80-year-old tower, which is Brooklyn's tallest building, from HSBC. The bank put the building on the block last year.
