Cutting-edge, all-electric tower in Fort Greene/Downtown Brooklyn with 324 rentals and integrated LIU academic space. Features 15,000 sq ft of premium amenities, sustainable design, and prime subway access. Currently, 12 apartments are for rent.
Eighty Nine Dekalb is a cutting-edge residential and academic tower located at the crossroads of Fort Greene and Downtown Brooklyn. Designed by Perkins Eastman, this all-electric building offers 324 rental units, with 98 designated as middle-income housing. In addition, it features 55,000 square feet of academic and office space for Long Island University (LIU).
Sustainability is a key focus of the project, with green design elements like a fully electric power system, a smart glass façade, and electric vehicle charging stations. The tower includes separate entrances and lobbies for LIU on three levels, seamlessly integrating academic and residential spaces.
All interiors feature well-crafted layouts, oversized windows, and high-end finishes. Residents have access to 15,000 square feet of premium amenities including a fitness center with yoga studio, a coworking center, a dining room, a podcast studio, a screening room, and a lounge with terrace access. Pets are welcome, and the building has an on-site pet spa.
This development is the second phase of a successful collaboration between RXR and LIU, following the nearby Willoughby residential tower, which debuted in 2021 with 476 units, academic facilities, an athletic field, and parking for 564 vehicles.
Conveniently located near the Dekalb Avenue subway station, Eighty Nine Dekalb provides easy access to the B, Q, and R trains. It is also located in close proximity to Fort Greene Park, Brooklyn Academy of Music, City Point retail, and Trader Joe's.
