Limestone among the brownstones

REAL ESTATE • FOUND Development

One Clinton, a 38-story slice rising above Cadman Plaza Park on the edge of Brooklyn Heights, is 97% sold since launching in 2019. It’s not surprising, given the spacious, light-filled interiors and bounty of amenities in a neighborhood not usually associated with cutting-edge developments.

There’s a new double-height public library on the ground floor, and the building’s handsome limestone facade references the old Brooklyn Heights library — details that reportedly helped make friends in the nabe (or at least fewer enemies). 

Closings began last year, and last week, two high-floor, three-bedroom duplexes were the biggest sales in Brooklyn. Both took million-dollar price cuts to get there. Unit 30C, last asking $4.95M, originally came online for $5.995M in 2022. And Unit 28C, also at $4.9M, was down from the 2022 price of $5.895M.

What’s left? A handful of 2500-SF four-bedrooms asking roughly $4.5M each. Admission to St. Ann’s is not included.
