Classic loft living in the iconic Newswalk Building: an oasis in the heart of Brooklyn. Originally the NY Daily News printing plant, this building was converted into lofts in 2002 and is known as the Newswalk Building. Its solid bones, spacious outdoor areas, central location, and top-notch amenities make Newswalk a coveted New York address. Flooded with natural light, this classic, spacious open loft features soaring 12'6” ceilings and an enormous wall of north-facing windows with direct views of the Manhattan skyline. With exposed pipes and original factory pillars, this loft is both industrial and playful. The kitchen features granite countertops and stainless steel appliances. The storage in this loft is abundant, with two walk-in closets and large, clean-lined built-in wall cabinets throughout. Recently refinished hardwood floors. The current layout has an architect-designed rustic sleeping loft above a unique glass walk-in closet. Also included are flexible, custom-designed room dividers, which can be used to separate living & working areas without sacrificing the airy feeling of a loft. The current design includes a large open living room and dining room, and two separate work-from-home areas. This apartment could also be reconfigured into a 1BR, or an alternate layout to suit your needs. Newswalk's amenities & green spaces are truly exceptional. The sprawling, double-decker landscaped rooftop provides plenty of space for sunning, relaxing, or entertaining while still social distancing. It features an outdoor kitchen with grills, lounge chairs, reservable picnic tables, bathroom, and playground. In addition, the recently renovated garden courtyard on the ground level creates a private park-like oasis just inside the gate. The basement level houses a fully equipped gym; a large, bright, and well-kept laundry facility; free bike storage with direct street access; and a 3rd party parking garage with Zip car availability. Newswalk is known for its top-notch staff, including 24-hour doorman and porter services, and meticulously maintained common areas including an upgraded lobby and package room, which make it easy and safe to receive your deliveries and packages. The building has 3 elevators and is pet friendly, with low common charges and extremely healthy finances. Newswalk is centrally located in Prospect Heights near Park Slope, Fort Greene, and Boerum Hill, and all the wonderful restaurants, cultural & natural landmarks these popular neighborhoods offer: Barclays Center, BAM, Brooklyn Museum, Brooklyn Botanic Garden, Fort Greene Park and Prospect Park (both with their weekly farmer's markets). Access to public transportation is unparalleled, with the LIRR and virtually every subway line within blocks (Atlantic/Barclays, Bergen, Lafayette, & Fulton stations). Shown by appointment only.
