Property Description for 253 Tompkins Ave, 6-A

253 Tompkins is pleasantly situated on the eastern side of Herbert Von King Park, with tall trees, meandering paths, playgrounds, and places for quiet relaxation. The park was designed by Frederick Law Olmsted and Calvert Vaux, the creators of Central Park, and today is a lively town square in Bedford-Stuyvesant dotted by Little Roy Coffee Co., a performing arts center reopening after a major restoration, and a mix of private homes and residential properties. Ten condominium residences include One Bedrooms, Two Bedrooms, Duplexes, and a Penthouse, each designed with pleasing room proportions and high ceilings. Kitchens offer premium appliances by Fisher & Paykel and Bosch including gas cooktops, separate ovens, dishwashers, and quality millwork in a neutral palette. Bathrooms have luxurious fixtures and finishes. Layouts maximize space, light, and views. Many homes have private outdoor spaces and great views of the park and skyline. Every residence has a washer/dryer. Building amenities embrace the outdoors; these include a first floor garden and a rooftop terrace with panoramic views from Downtown to Midtown and across Brooklyn. From the lobby, an elevator serves every floor. 253 Tompkins is designed by the respected architectural firm of Isaac & Stern, whose work is inspired by classic New York neighborhoods and feels both fresh and totally at home. Red brick, large traditional windows, and setback terraces make 253 Tompkins a welcome new neighbor on the square. Isaac & Stern’s portfolio includes 610 Warren Street in Boerum Hill, 90 Morton Street in the West Village, and 50 Clinton on the Lower Each Side, buildings with proven residential value and thoughtful design. The immediate neighborhood – and Tompkins Avenue itself – showcase Bed-Stuy’s culinary, shopping, and arts scene. 253 Tompkins is within walking distance to the G, A and C trains. Many of the neighborhood’s favorite restaurants, bars, and design stores are in the surrounding blocks. Built with superior quality and design, we look forward to welcoming you to 253 Tompkins – your new home on the park.

Quick Profile

Known for its historic brownstones and tight-knit enclave, Bed-Stuy has increasingly left behind its early reputation for being a “bedroom community” and transcended into a highly desirable neighborhood. 

Distinct for its aesthetic, it is populated with ornate buildings characterized by cornices, friezes, finials, fluting and other marks of classic architecture. Built up during the period from 1870 to 1900, its historic district runs to the north of Jefferson Avenue, to the east of Malcolm X Boulevard and to the west of Tompkins Avenue. 

At one point known as “Brooklyn’s Little Harlem,” the shape of the area has shifted toward attracting a wider demographic of people thanks to the influx of bars, restaurants, antique furniture stores and vintage boutiques. More police enforcement paired with the decline of the crack epidemic at the beginning of the 2000s also opened the door for increased development, as well as the occupation of formerly abandoned buildings and spaces.
