Brooklyn boutique condos offer a peaceful living experience just a short subway ride from Manhattan Brooklyn boutique condos offer a peaceful living experience just a short subway ride from Manhattan
To look at the headlines and the rapidly changing skyline, it would seem that Brooklyn is seeing a spurt of high-rise condominiums and large developments that would be right at home in Manhattan. But for every major project on the rise, there are several boutique condos that are smaller in scale and consistent in context with their surrounding neighborhood. We took a look through some of the borough's newly-opened and soon-to-come new development condos, both big and small, simple and amenity-laden...There is something for every buyer regardless of preference, and all have units starting at attainable price points when compared to similar product costs across the river.
