Overview of 1487 Broadway

1487 Broadway is a newly constructed, five-story apartment building located at the corner of Cornelia Street in the Bushwick neighborhood of Brooklyn. Designed by S&S Architectural Design LLC, the building features a unique architectural style reminiscent of New Orleans, characterized by its frilly balconies and intricate railings. The redevelopment, led by Cando Capital with principal David Sinay, transformed a two-story structure into a modern mixed-use development that includes 17 rental apartments, 3,000 square feet of retail space, and a 377 square foot healthcare facility.

The building's design incorporates Gothic-inspired detailing with tall, multi-paned windows and a striking geometric roofline. Notable amenities include a rooftop deck with skyline views, on-site laundry, bike storage, and a building lounge. Many apartments feature hardwood floors, high ceilings, and modern kitchens equipped with stainless steel appliances, including dishwashers and stone countertops. Some units also offer private balconies, enhancing the living experience.

1487 Broadway is conveniently located near the Halsey Street elevated station of the J subway line, providing easy access to public transportation. The building's aesthetic appeal is complemented by its artistic elements, such as customized murals and architectural drawings displayed throughout the property. This combination of modern amenities and distinctive design makes 1487 Broadway a noteworthy addition to the Bushwick landscape.
