synopsis:

202 8th Street is one of the few ground-up residential towers in the desirable intersection of Brooklyn’s Park Slope and Gowanus neighborhoods. This 12-story, 50,410 SF building offers 51 units, more than half of which feature generously sized terraces or balconies. Apartment units offer a diverse range of layouts from studios to three bedrooms with breathtaking skyline views of downtown Brooklyn and Manhattan. The living spaces include high ceilings, solid white oak floors and gloss lacquer finished cabinets to create a beautiful modern décor. In addition, the building features a fitness center, children’s playroom, storage rooms, rear ground level terrace, garden courtyard, and a spectacular rooftop deck equipped with outdoor grill and seating areas. The exterior of the building, clad in a terracotta rain-screen, compliments the surrounding traditional brick and brownstone residential buildings that characterize the neighborhood.
