Property Description for 135 Eastern Parkway, 7-G

If ever the phrase: Location, Location, Location should be used, it would be for this sun-filled sprawling pre-war two bedroom two bathroom apartment in Turner Towers, one of the preeminent apartment buildings situated in the heart of the cultural center of Brooklyn! Looking out at the stunning south-west views from the over-sized Living Room and Master Bedroom you find the architectural beauty of the Brooklyn Museum and the gorgeous lush foliage in the Brooklyn Botanic Gardens, from blossoming cherry trees to a fresh snow storm – not to mention stunning sunsets. This amazing Art Deco two-bedroom, two bath apartment boasts beautiful oak parquet floors, beamed ceilings and all the classic original details. The elegant, unique corner layout affords space, quiet and privacy. It is the ideal canvas for you to transform into your next home. The home features grand room sizes including a large entry foyer, a massive separate formal dining room - which can potentially be a third bedroom (see alternate floor plan), a windowed kitchen with a service entrance and an enormous living room. Numerous closets, including an extra-large cedar closet, are strategically placed throughout the apartment. The central hallway off the foyer leads to two very large bedrooms: the corner master bedroom has views of the Brooklyn Museum and Brooklyn Botanic Gardens, an en-suite bath, walk-in closet and linen closet, while the second corner bedroom has a second full bath in the hall immediately adjacent. Turner Towers’ stunning marble lobby evokes the late 1920s when it was built as one of the premier residential buildings in Brooklyn. It is a friendly full service impeccably kept building with a 24 hour doorman, concierge service, live-in super and porters. Website communications between management, neighbors and staff afford easy maintenance requests, and efficient package delivery! The amenities include a full modern gym, a community room, a patio garden with lounge chairs and tables, storage and bike storage (waitlisted). The Eastern Parkway location on Brooklyn’s grandest thoroughfare is just steps from the 2/3 train and is a speedy 15 minute commute to downtown Manhattan. The culture of the Brooklyn Museum and Brooklyn Botanic Gardens is directly across the street, with the Art Deco main branch of the Brooklyn Public Library a block away, also the over 500 acre oasis of Prospect Park. The neighborhood has plenty of fine dining, with cafes and entertainment options on nearby Washington, Franklin and Vanderbilt Avenues. You can shop for fresh produce at the Grand Army Plaza’s farmer’s market located at the entrance of Prospect Park which is also home to music festivals, sports fields and walking and biking trails. The distinguished artistic hub, Brooklyn Academy of Music, is just three subway stops away.

Prospect Heights | Brooklyn

Quick Profile

Prospect Heights is a small residential neighborhood surrounded by big attractions. It’s rich in culture and offers the perfect blend of old Brooklyn charm and modern-day hipness. 

Residents of this tight-knit community include young professionals, families and long-time residents. It’s a walkers paradise - just steps from Prospect Park and a short walking distance to neighborhoods like Downtown Brooklyn, Fort Green and Clinton. You’re close to culture too. Brooklyn Museum, Brooklyn Library, Brooklyn Botanical Garden, Brooklyn Academy of Music and the Barclays Center are all nearby.

Prospect Heights is bordered by Flatbush Avenue to the west, Washington Avenue to the east, Atlantic Avenue and Dean Street to the north and Eastern Parkway to the south.

Prospect Heights, like many areas of New York City, was first inhabited by indigenous tribes and eventually settled by the Dutch and turned into farmland. 

A significant part of the Revolutionary War was fought in Prospect Heights and the surrounding areas. Known as the Battle of Brooklyn, it was the first military engagement following the Declaration of Independence. Things didn’t go so well for American forces so they retreated and the British occupied Manhattan for several years after the Battle of Brooklyn.

In 1867, the opening of Prospect Park caused major housing growth in Prospect Heights. The middle-class neighborhood was soon populated by Jewish, Italian, and Irish workers. Many of which were shop-owners or employed as laborers in nearby factories.

Housing in Prospect Heights includes single-family row houses, historic townhouses, co-ops, and new luxury condos. The median listed price for a 1-bedroom in Prospect Heights is $680,000 with an average price per square foot is $944.

The neighborhood's commercial artery runs along Vanderbilt Avenue and Washington Avenue. The variety of businesses adds to the charm of the neighborhood. They include bars, pubs, restaurants and mom-and-pop stores of all types. The shops and eateries are a perfect alternative to the big-name attractions that bracket the neighborhood. It's a little bit of everything in this neighborhood. 

Subways are plentiful in Prospect Heights. Its proximity to Manhattan is another perk of the neighborhood. It's about a half-hour train ride. The B, D, N, Q, R, 2, 3, 4 and 5 subway lines all serve the Atlantic Avenue/Barclays Center station. 2, 3, 4, B and Q trains cover the neighborhood and the A and C trains are nearby too.
