Description
Built in 1881 by Thomas Fagan and acclaimed architect Robert Dixon in the Neo Grec style, 165 St Johns Place (aka 44 7th Avenue) is a gorgeous 22-foot wide, 5-story corner brownstone in the heart of the original Park Slope Landmark District. This palatial townhouse was once home to Bill Engeman, who made his fortune selling horses to the Union Army during the Civil War and went on to build and operate the colossal Brighton Hotel in Coney Island. Originally designed as a single-family home on a grand scale, 165 St Johns Place is configured with five floor-through apartments, and will be delivered vacant.
Fifty-four windows facing south, east, and west bathe the interiors ...
