Wanna See One Brooklyn Bridge Park? Get In Line
When the sales office at One Brooklyn Bridge Park aka 360 Furman quietly opened on April 4, there was already a list of 4,000 (!) people waiting to get a peek inside the 449-unit development which, controversially, is located right in the middle of what will be a waterfront park.

When the sales office at One Brooklyn Bridge Park aka 360 Furman quietly opened on April 4, there was already a list of 4,000 (!) people waiting to get a peek inside the 449-unit development which, controversially, is located right in the middle of what will be a waterfront park. At some point this week, the huddled masses will be able to get into the 1928 warehouse to peruse the condo offerings, which range from 588-square-foot studios to 4,638-square-foot penthouses. If the park ends up looking anywhere near as nice as this rendering (and there’s reason to think it will, given what’s already been built in Dumbo), this should be one of the most sought-after addresses this side of the East River. Time will tell. Does anyone know how many of these things are in contract already?

Trader Joe’s is sooooooo overrated. A bunch of frozen, prepared canapes, shrink-wrapped cheese, and their loss-leading Two-Buck Chuck (which is crap)–I mean, who cares? Give me Fairway any day.
it’s ridiculous that trader joe’s would come down to this location with no nearby subway access and have to build a huge parking lot than put it in an already established neighborhood like the spot on 7th ave in park slope (which is CRAVING a trader joe’s) where that deplorable key food is.
it’s crazy. and not very green, i might add.
rumors today that this bldg will get a Trader Joes. And so the tradition of a rumored TJs or Whole Foods going into every damn development marches on
I agree that this building will be awesome.
Much of Brooklyn Heights, Cobble Hill, and Dumbo are right next to the BQE. What’s new?
If I had the money I would live there.
Screw those ditzy old row houses.
I’m so over it.
i love this area but to say it’s the best building in brooklyn, or manhattan means you have a few screws loose.
seriously.
every building being built now has these finishes, fyi. you don’t get out much, apparently.
but thanks for the comment, mr/mrs. real estate agent.
I viewed the property and consider myself lucky to have gotten in, I am buying, the units and finishes are amazing, can’t think of another comparable project, high ceilings, appliances, baths kitchens all top notch. Also noticed that the new york times was right, you cannot hear the BQE. This will be the best building in Brooklyn and maybe Manhattan as the view of manhattan is unbelievable.
According to the BBPC, the marina is a wish list item. They have to find a private operator who would be interested in building and running the marina. Good luck.
I think 1 BBP will be succesful whether or not there is a little sliver park there. It will have its own parking, it’s walking distance to the neighborhood amenities although something tells me most of the buyers will be more interested in the drive to Dean & Delucca and the Hamptons than the walk to the local eateries and subway.
Sorry to dissapoint all ya’ll with East River sailing dreams, but that would be a pretty bad place to kkep a boat. Currents on the river are notorious, and there’s no point in even trying unless you time the trip right.
Just saying…
i’d say quite a few 3:24. 1000 psf is becoming the norm for something slightly above average these days.
people aren’t going to trekk down to this location unless they are relatively serious, i don’t think…
i’m not saying it’s far…i happen to love it down there, but i’m just saying its in brooklyn, it’s not within 3 minutes of a subway station.
brooklyn has gotten uber HOT
