75 Poplar Street: Review and Ratings

Review of 75 Poplar Street by Carter Horsley

This very attractive, low-rise, mid-block building at 75 Poplar Street between Hicks and Henry streets in Brooklyn Heights was erected as a school in 1910 and has 57 condominium apartments.

It was converted in 1991.

The building is on a pleasant street with gas lamps and is close to the Brooklyn Bridge, the Brooklyn Bridge Park, a water taxi and numerous subway lines.
