Brooklyn Gold Joins the Downtown Rental Party

Avalon Fort Greene, 80 Dekalb, the Brooklyner, and now Brooklyn Gold: There’s definitely no shortage of new rentals available in Downtown Brooklyn at the moment! The leasing office for Brooklyn Gold, aka 257 and 277 Gold Street, opened a few weeks ago. The 510-unit development’s website says asking rents are starting at $1,401 for studios and $1,532 for 1-bedrooms (that’s “net,” so the prices probably take into account concessions like a couple months’ free rent). The first building that’s leasing is 277 Gold Street, and at the Brooklyn Real Estate Roundtable on Tuesday one of its developers said it’s probably going to take another four or five months for some of the buildings’ amenities—which include an indoor swimming pool—to be finished. 277 Gold has 133 units and its big brother, 257, has 377.

“If and when all these rentals fill up we will be comparing Dobro to Murray Hill.”
I don’t see that happening. Murray Hill has much more charm.
Forte and Be@ are on deck…
Lesloaf, are you thinking of public school for your kids?
We’re looking to move right now. With two young kids, I wouldn’t consider one of these big buildings in no-man’s-land. These are for people straight out of college who can’t afford Manhattan.

I gave them a rent decrease on a two year lease. I actually think rents will keep going down and I needed a little insurance on at least one place. They pay rent on time and never complain.
In similar circumstances I would do the same. Many, many couples are loving the downtown area. I am including DUMBO although it’s not truly what this post was about.
Not too expensive if you do what they do in Carroll Gardens and that is 4 people to two bedrooms. Lets turn all of Brooklyn into one big dorm or better yet one big bed bug infested brothel.
