78 8Th Ave

78 Eighth Avenue is a six-story, 35-unit prewar cooperative constructed in 1923 and distinguished by brick-and-terra-cotta Art Deco details. The property predominantly offers one-bedroom layouts alongside occasional studios and larger parlor-level plans, many of which retain high ceilings, original oak floors, built-in shelving and sizable mullioned windows that look toward a planted central courtyard. Common interior features include renovated kitchens and baths in many units, eating-area or dining-space configurations, and den or foyer entries that increase usable square footage. Building amenities accommodate daily urban living: an elevator, full-time live-in superintendent with part-time porter, an updated laundry room, package room with video-entry (ButterflyMX), a playroom/community lounge, complimentary bike storage, and optional private storage (waitlist/fee). Exterior spaces center on a landscaped courtyard with decking and a pergola plus smaller private outdoor spaces for select apartments; on-site storage and a garden area expand practical options. The co-op is pet-friendly and enforces a smoke-free policy; certain units allow pied-à-terres and co-purchasing with the board’s rules. Located at the corner of Eighth Avenue and Union Street in Park Slope, the building is one block from Prospect Park and within easy walking distance of the Brooklyn Museum, Brooklyn Botanic Garden, Central Library, Grand Army Plaza greenmarket, multiple subway lines (2/3/4/5, B/Q), and neighborhood retail and dining corridors.
