Lexe, 669 Saint Marks Avenue
New boutique condominium Lexè is located just outside the Crown Heights Historic District at 669 Saint Marks Avenue, and yet its height, materials, and facade are highly congruent with its surroundings. However, the five-story building's state-of-the-art infrastructure and sustainable materials are miles above its prewar neighbors and instrumental in its Passive House certification. The building was designed with an airtight seal that limits air leaks and drafts, thus keeping energy consumption to a minimum, and additional features include triple-pane windows, state-of-the-art individual ERV systems, and solar panels.
The 10 units inside comprise a one-bedroom maisonette duplex that has already entered contract, five two-bedroom units, and four three-bedroom units. One of the three-bedrooms opens up to a private garden, select two-bedrooms have private roof terraces, and exactly half the apartments have private balconies or terraces. Sales are underway with current availabilities starting at $1.345 million for two-bedrooms and $1.7 million for three-bedrooms.
