Per the listing, the building will feature a terrace and, accessible for an extra fee, a fitness center, a lounge, bike storage, and a children’s play room. According to the Pacific Park website, the building, designed by architects COOKFOX, will be “conscientiously sustainable.”

The building is part of the Pacific Park project, a newly designed 8-acre space that stretches across two city blocks in Prospect Heights. The website also notes that the park includes children’s play areas, a public promenade, a dog run, and greenspace, and is intended to be “Brooklyn’s next great neighborhood."

Preference for half the rentals will be given to current residents of Brooklyn’s Community Boards 2, 3, 6, and 8, and applications are due on September 15th. If you’re interested and qualify, apply online through NYC Housing Connect, or request a physical application by mailing a self addressed envelope to 35 Carlton c/o MHANY Management Inc.
