Property Description for 916 Union Street, 2-A

Short-term 8-month lease only. Located at the entrance to Prospect Park, this spacious 725SF one-bedroom in prime Park Slope is your next home. Thoughtfully renovated from top to bottom in a well-managed, prewar co-op building, this is truly an exceptional place to call home. An Eskayel-wallpapered entryway with a coat closet leads to an airy living room featuring a wall of windows overlooking the historic Grand Army Plaza. Spectacular treetop views. The sun-soaked kitchen, gut renovated just last year, boasts custom cabinetry, custom open shelving from reclaimed wood sourced from a barn upstate, a subway tile backsplash, and new Big Chill appliances. A sizeable bedroom offers two spacious closets with deep overhead storage. The windowed bathroom was also gut-renovated last year, tastefully redesigned with sophisticated brass fixtures, custom-tiled floors and a custom vanity crafted from reclaimed barn wood. The well-appointed unit has hardwood floors, base molding and striking contemporary light fixtures—including a Lambert & Fils piece in the living room. The intuitive layout lends itself to entertaining. 916 Union Street is a premier address in North Park Slope. The pet-friendly, prewar co-op building features a communal landscaped garden and courtyard along with a 24/7 laundry room and bike storage. The building is moments from the 2/3 subway stop at Grand Army Plaza and the Q/B stop at 7th Avenue. Surrounding businesses include fitness studios Soulcycle, SLTS, and Crunch as well as a slew of incredible restaurants, including the award-winning Olmstead. Right outside your front door, you will find Prospect Park, the Brooklyn Public Library, the weekend Greenmarket and the much-beloved Coffee Love Truck on the corner of Union Street and Prospect Park West. The Brooklyn Museum, Brooklyn Botanical Gardens, and the famed glass Richard Meier building are all within reach. Please note the building has facade work slated to start soon. The exact start date is weather dependent as it has to be above freezing, with no wind and rain. The work is expected to last 12 weeks after scaffolding and netting have been erected. The view from this apartment will be obstructed.

Park Slope | Brooklyn

Quick Profile

Boasting beautiful tree-lined streets, brownstones and a range of activities for all age groups, Park Slope is consistently ranked as one of New York’s most desirable neighborhoods. Filled with lush parks and greenery, the neighborhood is also known for its rare combination of excellent public schools, award-winning restaurants, nightlife, small independently owned businesses and community gardens.

Situated at the western slope of Prospect Park, the neighborhood is divided into different sections: North Slope, Center Slope and South Slope. Depending on who you ask, of course, the definitions of where these borders end and begin may vary (is the divide between North and Center deemed Union Street, Garfield Place, 1st Street or 3rd Street? The one between Center and South 6th Street, 9th Street, 11th Street or 15th Street?). 

Regardless of what part of the Slope you find yourself on, there’s no shortage of architectural beauty. From row houses to brownstones to mansions, the idyllic setting of the neighborhood is further enhanced by its Romanesque and Renaissance Revival styles. Case in point of this is also two of the area’s most well-known churches, Park Slope United Methodist Church and Saint Augustine Roman Catholic Church. 

Revered for its family-friendly appeal, Park Slope is often regarded as one of the best places to raise a family in New York City. That said, it doesn’t mean that parents don’t know how to have a good time... a slew of bars constantly opening in the neighborhood ranging from the high-end cocktail saloon to the dive (well, by Park Slope standards, anyway).
