Property Description for 10 Plaza Street East, 16-D
Don't miss the last open house Wednesday, July 27, 6:30-7:30 p.m.! Lovingly occupied for many decades, this co-op on the 16th floor at 10 Plaza is a wonderful apartment, perfectly situated for life both in Brooklyn and as a commuter and/or visitor to Manhattan. Quietly nestled above all the activity at Grand Army Plaza, the apartment has beautiful light, parquet floors and room to spread out. The foyer leads into a very large living room, which has a spacious windowed dining alcove off the galley kitchen. A proper hallway coat closet and utility closet keep coats and supplies tidy and organized. The bedroom is huge and boasts a double closet and wall space plenty enough for furniture, art and built-ins. Light streams into this room from large windows. The bathroom is discreetly nested between the hallway and bedroom. 10 Plaza is well known for its round-the-clock security and excellent full-time super. This building is fiscally conservative and, as such, requires a minimum of 25% cash down and very strong post-closing liquidity. Relatively low maintenance; a superior location with proximity to trains, cultural attractions in and around Grand Army Plaza, and Prospect Park; and an apartment that features both light AND vistas all contribute to the value of this property.

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.
