Residential amenities include a gym on the cellar level, bike storage, lobby with package room, exterior recreation area on the first floor and second floor roof terrace. Interior renderings show contemporary residences with stylish details and amenity areas with industrial-inspired touches. The new building is directly next to the 7-story, 14-unit condominium 868 Lorimer on the Park, and on the same block is a new rental building now leasing at 906 Lorimer Street. The location is one block to the G train at Nassau Street and is walking distance to the L train; ferry service is available in Greenpoint at India Street and in Williamsburg at North 5th Street.
