1701 Albemarle Rd

A pre-war, six-story cooperative constructed in 1937, this Brooklyn building offers primarily two- and three-bedroom residences with classic Art Deco–era details and elevated ceiling heights. The masonry façade and serviced entry reflect the period character; common interior spaces include a formal entrance foyer and smoke-free hallways. Apartment layouts favor large, flexible foyers, eat-in kitchens, and abundant closets; many homes preserve original oak/parquet hardwood floors, arched entryways, built-in shelving, and multiple exposures that provide tree-lined views. Building-level services and staffing are substantial: multi-person door staff, a live-in superintendent, and a full-time porter maintain daily operations. Vertical circulation is by elevator; select recent updates include new elevator cars. Shared facilities support active urban living: a landscaped common outdoor space, bike storage/room, rentable extra storage, and an adjacent secured parking lot (waitlist/fee). The co-op is pet friendly (dogs permitted) and permits in-unit washers/dryers with board approval. Financially, the corporation is presented as well-capitalized with low maintenance, no underlying mortgage, and sizable reserves. The location sits near Prospect Park, B/Q subway access, Cortelyou Road and Church Avenue retail and dining, Kings Theatre, and nearby recreational amenities such as the Knickerbocker tennis club and the Kensington dog run.
