104 Pierrepont Street is a 25 foot wide Italianate townhouse built in 1856 on land associated with Hezekiah Beers Pierrepont, and now contains four cooperative apartments. The conversion was undertaken by architect and architectural historian Norval White, author of the AIA Guide to New York City, which continues to feature the property and the surrounding Brooklyn Heights district.
The building retains an unusually rich schedule of period architecture, including a hand carved wood entry hall, ornamental plasterwork, inlaid parquet floors, etched glass pocket doors, leaded glass cabinets and transoms, marble mantels, wainscoting, and detailed casings. The parlor floor has a 12 foot ceiling with a restored painted fresco of cherubs, while the townhouse's tall windows and elaborate millwork preserve its original Italianate character.
The most distinctive layout is a parlor and garden duplex that occupies the lower two floors, linking the principal entertaining level with a lower garden level. It encompasses nearly 3,000 square feet of interior space, approximately 700 square feet of private outdoor space, and exclusive use of most of the property's cellar, giving the co op an apartment with an unusually substantial horizontal footprint.
As a pre war co op, 104 Pierrepont has resident storage and a laundry room. The building is on a tree lined block between Monroe and Henry Streets, close to the Brooklyn Heights Promenade, Brooklyn Bridge Park, Borough Hall's weekly farmers market, and the neighborhood's restaurants and shops.

For some co-ops, instead of price per square foot, we use an estimate of the number of rooms for each sold apartment to chart price changes over time. This is because many co-op listings do not include square footage information, and this makes it challenging to calculate accurate square-foot averages.
By displaying the price per estimated room count, we are able to provide a more reliable and consistent metric for comparing sales in the building. While we hope that this gives you a clearer sense of price trends in the building, all data should be independently verified. All data provided are only estimates and should not be used to make any purchase or sale decision.
