Three blocks east of Prospect Park and the Brooklyn Botanical Gardens, a thoughtfully-designed condo building has kicked-off sales at 195 Sullivan Place in Crown Heights. Situated near the corner of mom-and-pop-oriented Rogers Avenue, the building is a short walk to the 2, 5, B, Q and S subway lines which can shuttle passengers to lower Manhattan in under 30 minutes.
The Architecture

According to city records, the 4-floor development was designed by P. Georgopoulos Architect and conceived by Solomon Schwimmer who closed on the double-wide lot in early 2017 for $2.87 million. The finished exterior sports a streamlined red-brick facade contrasted by large balconies and oversized, high-quality windows.
The Residences
Marketing and sales are being handled by MNS. Inside are 19 open-concept homes that range from studio to two-bedroom layouts. Described as a mix of modernism and charm, many units have their own outdoor spaces in the form of a balcony or terrace, and all have hardwood floors, designer tile-work and compact kitchens with beautiful cabinetry and high-end appliances.
The Prices

The first batch of released spreads has a studio measuring 402 square feet priced at $495,000, a 682-square-foot one-bedroom priced at $640,000 and a two-bedroom fourth-floor penthouse with an ask of $825,000. The availabilities average just above $1,000 per ft² which is in-line with the asks at the marginal number of condos available in the area, such as the pre-war conversion 1062 Bergen. With Crown Heights' housing stock overwhelmingly pre-war, closing condo prices have undergone a near decade-long surge — now closing at an average of $932 per square foot.
