Property Description for 376 President Street, 2-B

Application accepted. Pending lease.Modern convenience offerings in a building with historic, factory details makes living at the Mill a dream. Truly the best of both worlds. A unique rental offering for the neighborhood, this former jute mill is now an elevator building with wide, newly painted and carpeted hallways, a live-in super and a laundry room just outside the door to the apartment. Upgrades such as an app-controlled Video intercom and Nest Thermostat have recently been installed in the apartment as well. This building is conveniently located less than 2 blocks from the F/G trains on a tree-lined street that straddles the border of the Carroll Gardens and Gowanus neighborhoods.

Once inside the unit, you'll notice that the apartment is flooded with light that streams in through 13' north-facing windows. Exposed brick combined with original wood post and beams showcase the history of the building while accentuating the soaring 16 ceilings. This 1-bedroom, 1.5 bath duplex loft feels airy and bright in no small part due to its 950 square-foot, open floor plan. A dual stage central, WiFi controlled AC/heat with humidifier in-unit allows you to adjust the thermostat to suit your comfort level. Another rare and enviable feature is that this apartment is custom-wired for DirecTV HD for those looking for exclusive NFL Sunday ticket access (alongside Fios Gigabit and TV options).

The chefs inspired kitchen is outfitted with European maple kitchen cabinetry that offers ample storage and stainless steel appliances including a side by side fridge/freezer with ice & filtered water in the door. Unexpected, yet thoughtful additions include a 58-bottle wine cooler tucked under the black Silestone countertops and a convection oven/range with pot-filler. Opposite the kitchen is your half bath on the main level of the duplex.

Up the hardwood, internal stairway to the second level, you will find a large bedroom that looks out over the main living area. Excellent closet storage and a separate cedar-lined closet are nice touches. A full bath is located on the second level of the loft.

If that weren't enough, a beautifully, landscaped common courtyard serves as an outdoor oasis for residents of the building. You have the opportunity to prepare your meal on your choice of two over-sized Weber grills and dine al fresco while residing at 376 President Street. Optional Garage parking in the basement is available on a short waiting list, and free bike storage is available in the building as well. Come and discover why living in the Mill is the easy answer to the question of where to live next. Available August 31st. Sorry, no pets.

Gowanus | Brooklyn

Quick Profile

Gowanus is a colorful neighborhood with an industrial aesthetic, tree-lined streets, historic structures, as well as luxury condos and rental buildings. It has a great art scene, fantastic eateries and bars and a 1.8-mile canal that snakes through most of the neighborhood. The variety of elements make it a desirable place to live.  

The neighborhood is on the crest of a major change due to a recently passed rezoning plan that will allow more residential construction. Especially around the Gowanus Canal where construction was once prohibited. The plan will bring new jobs, affordable housing, and create a neighborhood with walkable green spaces and amenities. It’s safe to say that change is coming to Gowanus.  

Gowanus is bounded by Hoyt Street to the west, 4th Avenue to the east, Warren Street, Baltic Street and Wycoff Street to the north, and Gowanus Expressway to the south.

The neighborhood is named after Gouwane, a chief in the Canarsie Indian tribe. His name, according to the history books, translates to “the sleeper.” Other historic accounts say that the Gowanus name comes from the Dutch word gouwee, which translates to the word bay. Based on early New York History surrounding Dutch settlers and native tribes, both accounts seem plausible. 

Gowanus began development as far back as the 1630s when the Dutch arrived. They began building farms and soon realized the marshy lands they settled were not the best for growing crops and farming. They began damming up certain areas of the land with hopes of creating better soil and powering their windmills. This was the beginning of the formation of the Gowanus canal.

The natural estuary was once brimming with oysters and fish. But in the 1800s, the canal was turned into an industrial and transportation waterway. In the mid 1900’s, industrial factories like manufactured gas plants, paper mills, and other businesses opened along the canal and casually polluted the water. It’s cleanup efforts have come a long way but there is still much work to be done. 

The newly approved Gowanus rezoning plan has caused lots of buzz this year. Mayor Bill DeBlasio's plan will rezone 82 blocks which will pave the way for an estimated 8,500 new apartments, 3,000 of which would be offered to low and moderate-income New Yorkers. The plan includes major improvements to the local infrastructure. Although the rezoning plan might not create a housing boom today or tomorrow, proponents say the rezoning sets the stage for major growth in Gowanus in the decades to come.

The F, G, D, N, R, and W subway lines service the Gowanus neighborhood.
