The crown jewels inside Brooklyn’s most visible landmark have finally been listed. Stribling has started advertising two penthouse units—which are being called the Clocktower Residences—at One Hanson Place. The priciest of the pricey is a 4-bedroom, 3 1/2 bath going for $4,775,000; the other pad, a 2,848-square-foot 3-bedroom, is fetching a cool $4,095,000. Stribling notes that both are just below One Hanson’s gilded dome and feature panoramic views of the Manhattan skyline and Brooklyn as well as fancy appliances and finishes. The speed at which these luxurious spreads sell will certainly say something about how the highest of high-end condos are faring in Brooklyn right now. (As for possible buyers: Brooklyn still welcomes you, Oprah.) Bathroom shot and a floorplan for the $4.775 mil unit on the jump, and there’s an open house tonight if you can’t get enough One Hanson gawking. Update: A reader alerted us to the fact that these aren’t the actual penthouse units, though they are in the tower portion of the building. There are three units like this one on the 29th through 31st floors. The actual penthouses are in floors 33 to 36.

  1. I’ll bet my last dollar that the buyer of these apartments either doesn’t have kids or they have flown the coop. I see a couple with perhaps a home office…don’t they call those DINKS?

  2. This is a gorgeous building and I have been sniffing at some of the apartments for some time. I want to like these…I came ready to be in support of this price but I’m not feeling it.

    Always a red flag when most of the photos are not of the apartment. At this price point you are competing with Manhattan and while the views can’t be beat, Atlantic Center ain’t Chelsea. And while I am not a devotee of DDDB, anyone plunking down that kind of dough has to be aware of what they face for the near future. Madison Square Garden ain’t a neighborhood amenity that high end real estate is going to tout in their sales pitch.

  3. the bedrooms are for sleeping in so its ok that they aren’t huge. Unlike you, the people living here don’t spend much awake time in the bedroom becuase they (1) aren’t myspacing X-box-playing teenagers and (2) aren’t living in mom’s house.
