Built in 1896, this four-story, pre-war condominium conversion occupies a glazed brick corner building in Greenwood Heights / South Slope, Brooklyn. Converted from commercial lofts, the ten-unit property preserves industrial character—tall ceilings, large industrial-style windows, exposed masonry in places—and pairs those with recent upgrades such as a newly installed elevator, shared laundry facilities, and bike storage. Units are primarily loft-style studios and multi-level condos that emphasize open-plan living: white oak plank floors, oversized skylights or window banks, and kitchens fitted with modern stainless-steel appliances and stone counters. Several residences include duplex layouts with internal spiral staircases, generous lower-level recreation spaces, and deeded storage or roof rights; many units feature private outdoor terraces exceeding 60 sq ft. Building services are modest and owner-focused rather than full-service: on-site laundry, rentable additional storage, and bike parking are available; there is no concierge or on-site management office listed. Parking is street-based. Pets are commonly accommodated per condominium rules. Located along the lively Fifth Avenue corridor, the block offers immediate access to cafes, restaurants, neighborhood groceries, Greenwood Cemetery and multiple subway lines (N, D, R and nearby F/G), making it a mingling point of historic loft ambience and contemporary Brooklyn neighborhood convenience.
