10-14 foot ceilings depending on the floor. Doorman. Super ornate lobby. Used to be a college, converted to coops in 1981. Many elevators, common roof deck.

Standard process, application and interview.

This is on the edge of Brooklyn Heights and Downtown Brooklyn. A block from Fulton Mall and a block from Court Street. Many subway lines close by.
