This is a great apartment in the heart of a classic Brooklyn neighborhood. A really unique and special place. Perched on the third floor, you'll wake up to great sunlit views of Brooklyn rooftops, the Freedom Tower, and even the Empire State building from your windows.

The apartment is very comfortable for two people with a full size bed, work station, and a living room sofa-bed. The kitchen is equipped with all the essentials for a comfortable extended stay. You can make your own breakfast (But, why would you? Fortunato's is just down the street for great croissants and cappuccinos.)

You will probably find yourself enjoying the local restaurants all around. Thai, Italian, Mexican, sushi, pizzerias, bagel shops, a homemade pasta factory, Argentine empanadas, amazing old-style neighborhood bakeries, delis, and great cafes are all within a couple of blocks. Nightclubs, rooftop lounges, and upscale shopping are also within walking distance. You can spend an afternoon strolling along the waterfront with amazing views of Manhattan, enjoying the nightlife of Williamsburg, or visiting the other great Brooklyn neighborhoods like Greenpoint or our contemporary arts mecca, Bushwick.

Then, there's Manhattan.

Walk just a few minutes to either Graham St or Lorimer St. stations and catch the subway into Manhattan which is just three stops away! You'll be there in around 15 minutes!

The apartment is freshly painted. Quaint. Simply decorated. Quintessential Brooklyn. We even have a Warhol that we got at a sidewalk sale and a collage of original photos on the wall. Special note, the bathroom is typically NYC small and does not have a sink. Just use the kitchen sink. (Hey, it's Brooklyn!)

You'll love it.

  • Williamsburg, the neighborhood is a trendy, fashionable, and eclectic neighborhood unlike anything else in New York City. Here's what Conde Nast writes in its guide to the neighborhood:

"It's trendy, it's young... In this Brooklyn neighborhood, you'll find vintage and artisan shops, an intimate indie music scene, and of course, very good brunch. Hip, but a slower-paced than many parts of Manhattan, it produces a mood change as you emerge from the L train to wide open sky, unobstructed by towers. The bustle of the city melts away, but the freshness and creativity stays."

  • Domino Park, is a 5-acre public park located along the East River. Built on the site of the former Domino Sugar Refinery, the park is a great place to relax after exploring Williamsburg. Old meets new with great walkways and amazing views of Manhattan. A great place to watch the sunset over the iconic NYC bridges.

  • Prospect Park: a thriving natural escape filled with gardens, promenades, trails, and events. (Designed by Fredrick Olmstead famously known for also designing Central Park.)

  • BAM! The Brooklyn Academy of Music: A dynamic, thriving art center located at the heart of Downtown Brooklyn, featuring opera, theater, dance, music and films.

  • The Brooklyn Museum. The second largest museum in NYC, the Brooklyn Museum is known for its special exhibits, cultural events and its sprawling arts collection with roughly 1.5 million works

  • The Brooklyn Botanic Garden: The 52-acre garden holds over 14,000 plant species and hosts almost a million visitors a year.

  • Barbes: Simply put, this is the best "small" live music venue in the city. My absolute favorite. It reminds me of the small, intimate venues in New Orleans where I grew up. Worth the drive (20 minutes from the apartment in Park Slope.)

There is so much more to discover in Brooklyn. Let me know when you're coming & what you love to do and I'd be happy to share more recommendations.
