The 35-unit development at 111 Steuben Street, hereafter to be known as The Absolute, is open for business. Or at least it will be soon. A large banner proclaims the condo’s new name and it now has a page on the TDG website. There are no prices listed yet, but we’ve got it on good authority that prices for the mix of one-, two- and three-bedrooms will range from about $380,000 to over $1 million. We think this is a pretty good looking building, especially for an area that’s seen its share of crap recently. How ’bout you?

I agree that this is hideous. Brownstoner, I’m sad to say that you seem to think that any new building that’s not a fedders special is nice
Is that it? It look like someone built the first few stories of the McGraw Hill building and ran out of cash…
Take a walk down Bedford Avenue a few blocks away and we think you’ll see what we mean about this being better than other new construction in the area…
Browstoner has lost his mind.Are the developers paying to say” We think this is a pretty good looking building”?. This looks like a low-level cheap office bldg.
If any of you happend to notice the area its in. This building follows the industrial theme, like the buildings that surround the BQE extension on that end. Hopefully the apts are lofty aswell….
It’s really no worse than Richard Meier’s “Suburban Office Parks for Living.”
i like it. i’d live in an office building from the 50’s if i could.
this is cool, not a hood i’d choose at all, but cool.
i like it. i’ll be curious to see the interiors. it’s a good location-close to pratt and the stretch of myrtle that has seen a huge boost in the past few years. that area will continue to expand and improve—i know, because i can see the future.
I’ll grant you that it’s Modernist and that it looks like an office building, but sweeties, they ain’t building office buildings this attractive in New Jersey or Long Island. This building is sleek and cool, and I’m delighted to have it in the hood. Anybody know if Brooklyn Industries is really going to open big retail on ground floor?
