550 Vanderbilt Avenue

Set in Prospect Heights, this 2016-built condominium rises 17 stories and contains studios, one- and two-bedroom homes. The 214-unit building was designed by COOKFOX and places an emphasis on light, natural materials, and sustainable design. Residents find high ceilings, oversized windows, in-unit laundry and central air across thoughtfully planned layouts. Shared features include a full amenity suite with a 24-hour attended lobby, a large fitness center by The Wright Fit, a residents’ lounge with catering kitchen, a library (McNally Jackson partnership), children’s playroom, pet grooming station, bike storage and deeded storage rooms. Outdoor spaces are plentiful: a landscaped courtyard, communal gardens, a planted rooftop terrace with grills and seating, and small private outdoor spaces for some units. The building holds LEED certification and benefits from a long-term 421a tax abatement; preferred parking arrangements are available nearby. With easy access to Prospect Park, the Brooklyn Museum, the Botanic Garden, and major subway lines, the property sits amid strong neighborhood retail, dining, and cultural attractions and connects directly to Pacific Park’s expansive green space.
