2944 W 5Th St

A 23-story midcentury cooperative tower constructed in 1964, this large-scale residential complex sits within a multi-building community near Coney Island in southern Brooklyn. Units are primarily multi-bedroom layouts, commonly offering two- and three-bedroom floorplans with features such as eat-in or galley kitchens, built-in storage, hardwood floors and private balconies that capture ocean and neighborhood views. Interiors typically include full first-floor bedroom/bath configurations in select apartments, elevator access, and through-wall air-conditioning in many homes. The complex’s exterior environment emphasizes shared outdoor space: small private terraces off apartments, a landscaped courtyard, playgrounds, and proximity to the boardwalk and beach. Building services are extensive for a co-op: 24-hour security/doorman coverage, live-in superintendent, four elevators, central laundry rooms, upgraded hallways and lobby, and keyless entry with modern intercom systems. Resident-focused amenities include a recreation room, children’s playrooms, a fitness center, dog run, day care and on-site conveniences such as vending, dry cleaning, and package lockers. Parking is available (immediate purchase or waitlist for rental), storage options exist, and maintenance packages frequently include utilities like gas, heat and electricity; some units carry small supplemental charges for A/C. The complex is transit-accessible to multiple subway lines and bus routes, and its location supports a beachside lifestyle complemented by nearby restaurants, markets and the Coney Island attractions.
