161 Henry St

Located at the corner of Henry and Pierrepont Streets in Brooklyn Heights, this ten-story Beaux Arts elevator cooperative dates to the early 20th century and retains many classic prewar qualities. The facade is frequently admired for its period ornamentation and masonry; inside, apartments typically feature high ceilings (around 10 feet), oversized windows, original parquet or oak floors, crown moldings and plaster details. The co-op offers two passenger elevators plus a service/freight elevator and maintains building services including a live-in superintendent, central laundry, rentable basement storage and fee-based bike storage. Individual units range from large Classic 6 and multi-bedroom layouts to penthouses with private terraces; many residences have been sensitively renovated to include modern chef kitchens, in-unit vented washer/dryers, radiant or upgraded heated floors, and high-end appliances. There is no formal on-site exterior amenity program, but the location places the building a short walk from Montague Street shops and restaurants, the Brooklyn Heights Promenade and Brooklyn Bridge Park, with multiple subway lines nearby. The coop is described as financially sound and pet-friendly (with approvals), offering a traditional Brownstone-neighborhood lifestyle within a landmarked, amenity-light prewar property.
