Overview of Avalon Fort Greene at 343 Gold Street

The 42-story Avalon Fort Greene opens onto a spacious, tree-lined plaza that shields residents from the bustle of Flatbush Avenue. On the other side, a low-rise district preserves panoramic views of Midtown, Williamsburg, Greenpoint and Long Island City. As the name suggests, the building sits close to Fort Greene Park, Downtown Brooklyn’s favorite communal hangout. Apartments come with floor-to-ceiling windows, maple cabinets, granite countertops, and in-unit washers/dryers.

Avalon Fort Greene's common areas include a fitness center, resident lounges, bike parking, and community-sponsored social events for residents and their friends. A multitude of subway lines put Downtown Manhattan within a five-minute commute and offer convenient access to Midtown elsewhere in the city. The building sits near the Brooklyn Borough Hall Saturday Greenmarket, a Trader Joe’s, a Whole Foods 365 market, the Alamo Drafthouse Cinema, and the spectacular Dekalb Market Hall.

This "luxury-lite" Fort Greene high-rise earns praise for its "extremely convenient" location "near multiple subway lines" and "spacious, well-laid-out apartments" with "in-unit washer/dryers." The "professional and responsive" staff provides "swift maintenance service" in this "full-service building" with a "lovely courtyard." While some gripe about "thin walls" and "extra fees for amenities," most agree it's a "solid choice" in this "growing neighborhood" with "plenty of restaurants and shops nearby." The "safe" building offers a "true community feel," though "Flatbush-facing units" may experience "traffic noise."
