Here’s a quick roundup on real estate news happening around this part of Brooklyn:
“An affordable housing lottery has debuted for an under-construction tower on Gowanus’ 4th Avenue [380 4th Avenue, the Longview], the latest of several lottery launches tied to the neighborhood’s rezoning.
Included in the lottery are 50 units, all rent stabilized and income restricted, 40 of which could be deemed truly affordable. Those are targeted at households of one to five people earning between $35,589 and $100,620 a year, or 40 and 60 percent of Area Median Income, according to the listing. There are 32 one-bedroom units at $874 and $1,374 a month and eight two-bedroom apartments renting for $1,031 and $1,631 a month.
The Longview lottery closes on April 28. To apply, visit the listing on New York City’s Housing Connect website.” [Brownstoner]

StreetEasy via BK Reader LONG READ: “The ever-unsettled Atlantic Yards (aka Pacific Park) mega-project in Brooklyn faces another crossroads. More than 21 years after it was announced, with a projected 10-year buildout, the project has delivered the Barclays Center and eight towers, but remains about half-finished—and stalled since November 2023.”

I use StreetEasy as the listing source to recommend properties that I would live in myself, and have searched within the boundaries of Park Slope and surrounding neighborhoods (Gowanus, Windsor Terrace, Prospect Heights). All prices are per month, and only listings in the last 14 days are shown unless there is a significant price drop. All sales jargon has been magically removed.
