Located in the vibrant DUMBO neighborhood of Brooklyn, 181 Front Street is a 12-story rental building completed in 2016.

The building offers a range of modern amenities, including a 24-hour doorman, a fitness center, a children's playroom, and a communal rooftop terrace with panoramic views of Manhattan and the East River. Residents also benefit from on-site parking, bicycle storage, and a 48-car garage. The building is conveniently located just one block from the F train, providing easy access to the rest of the city.
