Broker & Buyer Comments

This "triple-border" residence at the convergence of "three prime Brooklyn neighborhoods" offers "24/7 doorman service" and the convenience of "utilities included" in maintenance. The building is "poised for upgrades" with planned lobby renovations and a new roof deck in the works, making it an "evolving property" in this "well-situated" location.
