189 Brg St

An 18-story condominium completed in 2006, this full-service residential high-rise contains primarily one- and two-bedroom units with contemporary layouts and generous outdoor space. Architecturally it reads as a modern glass-and-masonry tower with large corner windows and private balconies or terraces on many residences; several units feature wrap-around outdoor space and dual exposures. Interiors commonly include high ceilings, recessed lighting, granite counters, breakfast bars, pantry space, walk-in closets, soaking tubs, and in-unit washer/dryer hookups. The building’s shared amenities emphasize convenience and social spaces: a 24-hour doorman/concierge, on-site superintendent and maintenance staff, a private fitness center overlooking a landscaped courtyard, and a roof deck with skyline views. The landscaped courtyard is being upgraded with a wood-burning fire pit, audio system, BBQ island and Wi-Fi for communal gatherings. Parking and private storage are available for a fee, and the property has a building-link system for deliveries and resident communications. Located at the confluence of Downtown Brooklyn, DUMBO and Vinegar Hill, the location provides immediate access to multiple subway lines, the DUMBO waterfront, grocery anchors and retail at CityPoint, and a dense collection of restaurants and cultural destinations.
