The listings are live at 868 Lorimer on the Park, and Million Dollar Listing’s celebrity broker Ryan Serhant and his Nest Seekers team are leading the sales. According to a press release, the team hosted a carnival extravaganza earlier this week to celebrate the sales kick-off. Complete with games for kids by Cotton Candy Clowns and refreshments from local vendors such as VanLeeuwen Ice Cream, the team sought to give prospective buyers a local taste of Brooklyn.
The two-building project overlooks McCarren Park and is positioned at the junction of Williamsburg and Greenpoint. Prospective buyers can choose from 14 two-and three-bedroom homes, all featuring their own private outdoor space. Deep balconies and gracious terraces are ideal for plantings, allowing you to nurture your green thumb. The exterior, designed by the prolific Stephen B. Jacobs Group and Ole Sondresen Architect, echoes the area’s industrial roots while providing a contemporary take on modern New York living.
