Property Description for 101 Lafayette Ave, 2-L

Rare opportunity to own a large and lovely studio with outdoor space in a gorgeous, full-service building. There are oak wood floors throughout and lovely moldings. As it is currently configured, there is plenty of room for living room, bedroom and home office areas. Its oversize casement windows frame a sunny western view across lovely rear yards and on to adjacent South Portland Street, which was crowned the best block in NYC by Time Out New York. This unit comes with its own outdoor terrace space outside of its oversize windows.

Architecturally significant, the Griffith is a stunning Art-Deco landmark building. This is an elevator building with a recently renovated lobby, full-time front desk staff, and a gorgeous park block location. Pets are welcome. There is a live-in super and a laundry room in the basement. Unlike many other co-ops, long-term sublets are allowed in this building and there is a simplified and expedited board review process.

101 Lafayette is on the corner of South Oxford Street and Lafayette Avenue. It is 1 block away from the G train, 2 blocks away from the C train and a 5-7 minute commute to 9 other subway lines and the LIRR. Fabulous shopping, cafes and restaurants nearby. It is also in the heart of Brooklyn's cultural center, near Brooklyn Academy of Music, Theater For A New Audience, The Irondale Center and much more. Just a short distance to the Barclays Center, too.

Fort Greene | Brooklyn

Quick Profile

Conveniently situated just north of the beautiful and lush Prospect Park, Fort Greene is rich with history. Representative of an aesthetic that Brooklyn is often associated with--the brownstone and row house architecture being an institution of the community--Fort Greene is decidedly singular in visual style. As part of the National Register of Historic Places, this South Brooklyn neighborhood offers unique charm and plenty of character.

Beginning with its early military-oriented inception (the territory was central to the Battle of Long Island), Fort Greene has always been recognized for its spaciousness and a sense of openness. Filled with nature and greenery, it is also home to its very own eponymously named park in addition to being in close proximity to Brooklyn’s largest recreational area, Prospect Park (containing the beloved Prospect Park Zoo within it). 

Many residents come from different socioeconomic backgrounds and commute to their workplaces in Manhattan, while keeping Fort Greene as their separate haven. The diversity of the area has proven to be one of the few examples of a Brooklyn neighborhood maintaining its roots in part thanks to its protected status.
