8 Vanderbilt Ave

Navy Green is a 12-story, LEED-certified condominium complex completed in 2015 and designed by FXFowle Architects. The development mixes townhouse and midrise condo forms with two-bedroom unit types and larger multi-floor townhomes; residences feature wide white oak floors, high ceilings, generous windows, and modern kitchens with Caesarstone or quartz counters and stainless appliances. Interiors emphasize storage and functionality—large laundry rooms, his-and-hers or walk-in closets, built-in bookcases, and entrance foyers are common. Shared spaces include a glass-framed lobby with seating, two elevators, a fitness room, bike room, laundry facilities, cold storage/package room, and superintendent services. Outdoors the project centers on a planted 30,000-square-foot communal green with walkways, playgrounds and lawn, plus private gardens for some units, a landscaped roof deck with BBQ stations and skyline views, and small private outdoor terraces. The neighborhood blends historic industrial fabric with residential streets—steps from the Brooklyn Navy Yard, close to Fort Greene Park and dining corridors along Myrtle and Dekalb Avenues, with multiple transit options (ferry, subway, bus, CitiBike). Pet- and smoke-policy details vary by unit; the property includes a cloud-based smart intercom and on-site building management. The overall character balances contemporary finishes, energy-efficient systems, and sizable communal green space tied to a rapidly evolving Navy Yard district.
