135 Ocean Pkwy

Caton Towers is a 16-story midcentury cooperative completed in 1965 along Ocean Parkway in Brooklyn’s Kensington/Windsor Terrace border. The massing is a long, residential block with repeated window bays and private balconies on many units; layouts range from studios and alcoves to one- and two-bedroom apartments with oversized living rooms and walk-in closets. Interiors commonly feature high ceilings, generous closeting (including his-and-hers and walk-in closets), galley or eat-in kitchens, breakfast bars or kitchen islands in renovated units, hardwood floors, and updated baths in many apartments. The building operates full-service with a 24-hour doorman, live-in superintendent, porters, video security, and three elevators (two passenger, one service). Shared facilities include a renovated laundry room, bike storage, basement general storage, optional private storage, and an indoor garage with a waitlist for parking. Many apartments have private outdoor space—balconies or terraces ranging under and over 60 sq ft—plus expansive treetop and skyline views from higher floors. The co-op maintains smoke-free policies, centralized utilities (maintenance often includes heat, A/C, gas, water and real estate taxes), and case-by-case pet approval for dogs while generally welcoming cats. Situated a short walk from Prospect Park and near F/G and Q/B subway access, the building sits within a neighborhood of restaurants, cafes, and commuter bus routes, offering a balance of suburban calm and city convenience.
