Description

**Sponsor unit** Renovated Studio with oversized closet, brand new bathroom and kitchen, in Art-Deco Fort Greene Co-op. The Griffin has a 24-hr doorman, a live-in super, 24-hr laundry room, private storage and two recently renovated elevators. The building has been planning a complete renovation of its lobby to restore its grand, classic art-deco design. It is located in the center of Fort Greene, a block from Fort Greene Park, a block from the Brooklyn Academy of Music and a block from the C and G trains and express busses to the city. The second largest transportation hub is three blocks away and the 2/3/4/5/N/R/D/Q trains and the LIRR stop there. Each of the subway lines are from one to three stops from Manhattan. Surrounding the building, and a very short stroll away, are some very good restaurants opened by up and coming chefs, clothing boutiques featuring fashion from up and coming young designers, shopping, gourmet supermarkets and wine stores, and is littered with friendly neighborhood pubs where the local demographic mix and interact.
