As the heart of Williamsburg becomes as desirable (and often as expensive!) as parts of Manhattan, developers are looking to the south and east ends of the neighborhood near the Bushwick and Greenpoint borders. That is the case at 261 Union Avenue, where a six-story condominium with six floor-though apartments has risen on the site of a vacant lot just a few blocks from the Hewes Street J/M/Z and the Broadway G subway stops. The building is known as The Acacia, and its structure by Design 101 has been described as “timeless minimalism meets dynamic excellence.”
In this article:
A garden studio has a private backyard, a three-bedroom penthouse has two private terraces, and the two-bedroom, two-bath apartments in between all have at least one balcony off the living room. All homes have a modern, natural palette, white ash hardwood floors, central heat and air conditioning, and in-unit washer/dryer. Integrated kitchens have well-crafted cabinets, Caesarstone countertops, and state-of-the-art appliances. Building amenities include storage space and virtual doorman.
Apartments at The Acacia start at $1.35 million and come to an average of $1,278 per square foot. According to CityRealty data, these prices are in line with the rest of Williamsburg. Click here for more Williamsburg listings.
