1171 Ocean Parkway

A six-story prewar co-op constructed in 1940, 1171 Ocean Parkway occupies a tree-lined stretch of Midwood’s Ocean Parkway. The masonry building retains classic prewar proportions with high ceilings, large multi‑exposure windows and period moldings throughout many units. Residences range from studios and one-bedroom layouts to full two-bedroom apartments, often featuring formal dining areas, oversized foyers, and windowed kitchens. Typical interiors showcase hardwood or inlaid parquet floors, abundant built-in closet storage and updated kitchens and baths in many units; several listings note contemporary renovations such as quartz counters, stainless steel appliances and recessed lighting. Shared building amenities include on-site laundry, separate storage rooms, bicycle storage, landscaped grounds/courtyard, and a live-in superintendent. Parking is street-level and neighborhood transit access is strong via local buses and nearby subway lines; grocery, cafes and local shops line the surrounding blocks. Pet policies vary by listing and the co-op has historically permitted subletting and owner-installed dishwashers in some units. The character is residential and community-oriented, blending prewar architectural details with a range of modern upgrades suited to singles, couples and small families seeking a quiet urban neighborhood experience.
