At the northwest corner of the neighborhood near Washington Avenue, a three-townhouse collection with nine units will be ready for residents this fall. Designed by Rybak Architects, the duplex condos feature private outdoor space, white oak hardwood floors, and Bosch appliances, including a washer/dryer. The kitchens have Nagad cabinets and Caesarstone counters, and the bathrooms are outfitted with marble walls and floors. Three units are in contract, including a $1.495 million 2,252-square-foot five bedroom with a 698-square-foot garden, and a 2,030-square-foot six-bedroom with a roof terrace asking $1.695 million.

Construction wrapped earlier this year on this six-unit project, which replaced a one-story building on Prospect Place near Classon Avenue. All of the units are full-floor two-bedrooms measuring 1,131 to 1,258 square feet with interiors by Pennie Kim and private keyed elevator access. Two units are in contract, and there are two active listings: the second floor unit asking $1.325 million and the fourth floor unit asking $1.435 million (both prices got a bump at the beginning of September). Level One Holdings is the developer.

Sterling Town Equities is developing a five-story, eight-unit condo project on Park Place near Classon Avenue. It’s been in the works for four years, and its one-, two-, and three-bedroom units are expected to launch sometime this month. Prices will start at $700,000. Shared building amenities include a fitness room, rooftop deck, and storage. 

Just east of New York Avenue in the neighborhood’s historic district, there’s a new 22-unit, five-story condo building by Nexus Development. Sales launched in June, and available units run the gamut from a 500-square-foot alcove studio ($550,000) to a 1,400-square-foot penthouse with three bedrooms and a nearly 400-square-foot terrace ($1.845 million). Residents without private outdoor space can take advantage of a shared rooftop deck.

On Park Place between Rogers and Nostrand avenues, a new six-story building hit the market with eight condos earlier this summer, two of which are in contract. They range from a 660-square-foot one-bedroom to a 1,362-square-foot two-bedroom, with prices starting at $550,000 and topping out at $1.15 million. Finishes skew a little more luxury rental than condo, but many units have private outdoor space.

Plans were first filed for this small development near Nostrand Avenue at the end of 2014, and it’s finally nearing the finish line. Designed to passive house standards, the building is highly sustainable and doesn’t require much energy to heat or cool. The full-floor units all feature private outdoor space and keyed elevator access. Two of its apartments are currently on the market, including a 1,130-square-foot two-bedroom asking $950,000.

Here’s another big new rental building on the scene. This one, on the corner of Eastern Parkway and Bedford Avenue, has 186 apartments that are being leased in stages. The first phase is fully rented, but new units will come online September 1, to be followed by the Penthouse Collection, which accounts for more than 30 units in the building. Amenities include a co-working space, a landscaped rooftop with a hammock lounge, cabanas, bocce ball court, wet bar, and dining area with barbecue stations. There’s also a fitness room, pet spa, and private parking available. Rents started at $2,225 for a studio.

A stone’s throw from the Brooklyn Museum, there’s a nine-story 37-unit condo building aptly named the Museum House that evidently wishes it was on the other side of Washington Avenue—all marketing materials claim that the building is in Prospect Heights. The developer is Happy Living Development, while Aldo Andreoli and Claudio Delmonte are responsible for the design. Units have white oak herringbone floors, Poliform kitchens, and Carrara marble bathrooms. The priciest, and largest, unclaimed option is a 1,715-square-foot four-bedroom corner unit with a 405-square-foot terrace asking $2.599 million. If it sells for that price, it will be the most expensive condo ever sold in Crown Heights.

Architecture firm ODA New York is designing this 100-room hotel on Bedford Avenue, which will have amenities like a publicly accessible rooftop terrace; a rooftop bar; a ground floor restaurant; and a cafe.

In all, the redevelopment of the Bedford-Union Armory will create nearly 400 rentals, of which 250 will be affordable apartments. Plans also call for a recreational center with a swimming pool and basketball court, as well as offices. Members of the community have long fought the project, which was initially due to have condos and fewer amenities for neighborhood residents. Plans for two of its rental buildings were filed in 2018.

Along with 40 Crown Street, this site close to the Brooklyn Botanic Garden could give way to two 16-story mixed-use buildings with 518 residential units (a chunk of which would be affordable), and 15,000 square feet of retail. Developers Cornell Realty and Carmel Partners successfully petitioned the city to rezone the site, although affordable housing commitments that City Council member Laurie Cumbo says were made have since been questioned. While the project has received backlash because of its proximity to the garden and what opponents say is its potential to block sunlight, the City Planning Commission found the rezoning would “have no significant impact on the environment.”

A positively massive development with nearly 600 apartments has been proposed for a site near the Brooklyn Botanic Garden. Developer Carmel Partners—which is working on another contested proposal nearby—filed plans for the enormous project earlier this year.

Another enormous development near the Brooklyn Botanic Garden has been proposed, with two buildings that would bring more than 1,500 apartments to the area. Of those, around 473 would be deemed affordable, with 60 percent of the affordable apartments would be earmarked for extremely low-income, very low-income, and low-income New Yorkers making less than 80 percent of the area median income. Developers Continuum Companies and Lincoln Equities are seeking a rezoning for the project, but the garden has thrown its weight behind the local opposition efforts.
