Two Trees’ glassy behemoth next to the Brooklyn Bridge at 60 Water Street in Dumbo has begun leasing its market-rate units today, with eight listings ranging from studios to two-bedrooms. Studios start at $2,964 for only 452 square feet, one-bedrooms at $3,498, and two-bedrooms at $6,018.
Strangely, the listings do not have interior renderings, which still have not been released. But there are floor plans, which are new, as is the pricing.
There will be washer/dryers, dishwashers, hardwood floors in every apartment, and some will have private terraces. The 290-unit building has 232 market-rate apartments and 58 affordable ones, where rents start at $500.
Move-ins are expected to start December 1. Ismael Levya and Leeser Architects designed the development, which includes a 300-seat public middle school, ground-floor retail, a 17-story tower and a smaller 9-story section.

MAYBE East New York at that price. And not for very much longer.
tl;dr
Tons of buildings with similar pricing in Williamsburg
That was my first reaction too. But these days, who knows. I do know that you could’ve bought an entire house in Brooklyn Heights in the last bust just a few years ago, 3x-4x the size of this 2-bedroom, and your carrying costs wouldn’t even be a multiple of $6000/month. It must be hard to be a 1-percenter these days 😉
