University Towers is a mid‑century cooperative complex in Brooklyn comprising three connected 15‑story residential buildings constructed in 1963. The portfolio is primarily studio and one‑bedroom homes, many reconfigured internally by owners to create larger layouts such as junior four conversions and two‑bedroom plans. Units commonly feature high ceilings, hardwood floors, crown moulding, generous closets including walk‑ins, renovated kitchens with granite or Caesarstone counters and stainless appliances, and practical foyers that add separation between public and private space. The property emphasizes communal life: a staffed 24‑hour lobby with door attendants, on‑site management, live‑in supers, full‑service porters and handymen. Shared facilities are comprehensive and maintained across the gated, park‑like grounds — a fitness center, multiple laundry rooms with card-operated machines, a resident lounge/community room, children’s playground, bike storage, storage units, and extensive landscaped gardens with pergolas, gazebos, barbeque terraces and roof deck seating. On‑site parking is available to rent or buy and parking areas were recently renovated. The coop is noted for solid financial reserves and ongoing capital improvements (new windows, lighting, grounds, and public‑space upgrades); board approval is required for purchases and the building enforces a no‑pets policy. Located at the Fort Greene/Downtown Brooklyn edge, the development sits steps from multiple subway lines, Fort Greene Park, cultural institutions such as BAM and Barclays Center, and neighborhood retail and food markets.
