Property Description for 160 Franklin Street, 2
Welcome home to this newly renovated one bedroom apartment in idyllic Greenpoint one flight up from the corner of Kent and Franklin Streets. The windowed eat-in kitchen has a brand new Viking stove, refrigerator, and microwave plus additional cabinet storage and a subway tile back splash. The bathroom continues the subway tiles, has a cast iron tub, and even a stained glass window. The living room is brightened by two windows and the bedroom easily has room for a queen-sized bed. The two closets should allow plenty of storage. The area is like stepping into a small town but with all the advantages of the big city. The Greenpoint Avenue G train is two blocks away, as is the East River Ferry, and Franklin Street is famous for its eclectic shops, restaurants, and bars. There's even a great restaurant downstairs if one doesn't want to create in one's own kitchen. Move quickly, though, as this apartment will be gone tomorrow.

Greenpoint | Brooklyn
Quick Profile
Go north, not west. Greenpoint’s placement at the furthermost tip of Brooklyn makes it peak “North Brooklyn” territory. Bordered by the East River, its geographical location has long made Greenpoint integral to maritime activity, present day ferry service to Manhattan included. With Williamsburg to the south and Long Island City to the north, Greenpoint’s “hip factor” often experiences crossover traffic from these areas.
Particularly bustling on the weekend, the edge of McCarren Park at Bedford Avenue and Lorimer Street filters out into prime Greenpoint, where brunch has become a hallowed tradition for newer and longtime residents alike. Bars and restaurants such as Spritzenhaus and Five Leaves also provide close proximity to a post-dining jaunt in the park.
As the neighborhood continues to grow and develop, the old world feel of a tradition of Polish immigrants has commingled with the arrival of enterprising millennials that have become a part of the go-getting spirit of the neighborhood. Filled with small coffee shops, vintage boutiques and award-winning restaurants (as well as tailored bars like TØRST offering up specialty beers on tap), Greenpoint truly is the jewel of North Brooklyn.
