81 McGuinness Boulevard, a new six-story boutique condominium in a prime Greenpoint neighborhood, is a short walk from the eclectic dining options of Nassau Avenue and Manhattan Avenue. But for those who prefer to cook at home, the building offers an interesting incentive: three months of Martha Stewart & Marley Spoon, meal kits offering pre-portioned ingredients for recipes developed by the lifestyle aficionado. Users have a choice of five categories (including Vegetarian & Vegan and Under 30 Minutes), and there are new meal options every week.
The eight-unit boutique condominium currently has three availabilities that allow prospective buyers to take advantage of this unique offer. Apartment 1A, listed for $590K, is a first-floor studio with lower-level recreation space/home office. On the penthouse level, apartment 6A is a $1.239 million duplex two-bedroom with a balcony off the living room and a private roof terrace. And in between, apartment 3 is a full-floor two-bedroom with a $1.549 million asking price and private balconies off the living room and bedroom.

Between generous counter space, Bosch and Fisher & Paykel appliances, and abundant cabinetry, the apartment kitchens are ideal for preparing the gourmet meals received through Martha Stewart & Marley Spoon. Apartments also feature open layouts, oversized windows, and spa-like baths. The two-bedrooms both have generous closet space, and apartment 1A comes with a private storage room.
Early design versus the final product
81 McGuinness Boulevard is close to McCarren Park, Monsignor McGolrick Park, and the Nassau Avenue G stop. It also offers a front-row seat to the full redesign of McGuinness Boulevard, which has long been listed as one of the city’s most dangerous corridors for pedestrians and cyclists. It was most recently where popular public school teacher Matthew Jensen was killed in a hit-and-run crash; in response to the tragedy, Mayor de Blasio and the Department of Transportation announced a series of immediate safety upgrades and a full corridor redesign with $39 million in capital funding. The mayor said in a statement, “Vision Zero has made New York City safer and more livable, but its work isn’t finished until corridors like McGuinness Boulevard are improved for everyone who uses them.”
