Each residence at 80 Cornelia Street embodies strategic, tasteful composition & intentional design - blurring the line between contemporary functionality & subtle, traditional charm. The building's newly crafted ivory fa ade, accented by historically inspired black window frames and a classic cornice, pays homage to the neighborhood's character while maintaining a new, effortlessly picturesque appeal.
Residence 3 is a two-bedroom, two-bathroom floor-through home with a large private roof terrace showcasing 12ft ceilings, a notably wide living/dining area, charming bay windows, floor & ceiling moldings, and custom-built closets. As you enter the home, you're greeted by a sense of intention that just feels right. Three large bay windows cast light throughout the residence and highlight every detail. The sheer height of the ceilings dramatically opens the space and provides a palatial feel.
The kitchen is truly the pinnacle of this residence - showcasing rich mahogany tones paired with a lustrous off-white, creating balanced duality. Sleek yet understated, the oil-rubbed bronze hardware adds a timeless touch to the cabinets, seamlessly complementing the kitchen fixtures. A stunning Taj Mahal quartz was thoughtfully chosen, highlighting its natural veining while beautifully uniting the cabinetry's color palette. An intentionally designed wall of lower cabinetry and floating shelves was added to the far left of the kitchen, offering extra storage while serving as a coffee niche or a display for tasteful decor. This chef's kitchen comes equipped with a Bertazzoni appliance package including a 30" gas range, a paneled vent-hood, 30" double door refrigerator with bottom freezer drawer, and dishwasher.
Progressing toward the back of the residence you'll find the first full bathroom. A tasteful combination of porcelain 3"x3" and matching large format tiles cover the walls and floors boasting subtle, neutral veining. An organic style rattan-faced vanity pulls warmth from the veining and adds a mid-century element, paired with brushed nickel fixtures & finishes including an exposed-pipe shower body with a hand-held sprayer that adds character.
At the back of the residence are two well-proportioned bedrooms that both include custom closet systems. The large primary bedroom and en-suite bathroom are truly a sanctuary. Spanning approximately 14'x10', the room accommodates a king-sized bed as well as an array of other furniture. Strategic pocket doors lead to a walk-in closet flowing directly into the en-suite bathroom. The bathroom was designed with a classic look, detailing zellige-inspired tile work, paired with a classic Calcutta marble penny tile. A rattan-faced double vanity adds warmth to the space, beautifully accented by oil-rubbed bronze fixtures including an exposed-pipe shower body & hand-held sprayer, and refined lighting.
The private roof terrace spans over 300sqft and is fully finished and boasts a gorgeous Brooklyn view of the Manhattan skyline.

Quick Profile
As one of the most diverse neighborhoods in New York, Bushwick offers a perfect snapshot of just how multicultural the city is. Long-established as an amalgam of cultures and ethnicities, a wave of varying types of immigrants trickled in from the seventeenth to twentieth centuries, with Bushwick largely becoming a home to Hispanics of Puerto Rican and Dominican backgrounds by the latter part of the twentieth century.
With the Bushwick Initiative of the mid-00s that aided in revitalization, it became an attractive area to young professionals and artists. And even now, Bushwick has sustained affordable rent prices where other North Brooklyn counterparts, like Williamsburg and Greenpoint, have become more expensive. Priding itself on the weird and the wacky, numerous art collectives thrive in this part of Brooklyn, once famously named the seventh coolest neighborhood in the world by Vogue.
Though it has drawn in many tourists in recent years (there’s even a graffiti tour you can take from the Bushwick Collective), the neighborhood remains very much community-oriented, and has not been subject to quite the same sort of corporate infiltration phenomenon of its nearby Williamsburg environs.
But yes, of course, Bushwick has come a very long way from its 80s and 90s reputation as being “The Well,” a nickname given to it for its free-flowing and widely available amount of drugs (quantity over quality being the cliche applied here).
