As New York City enters Phase 2 of a four-part reopening, traditional real estate showings will be permitted to resume, albeit with new safety and health protocols in place. However, the past few months saw virtual tours of all forms replace face-to-face showings for apartment hunters in the city as well as all over the world, and some brokers expect these to be a permanent part of their repertoire.

A case in point can be found at 222 Johnson Avenue, a new seven-story rental in Williamsburg that has just started leasing. The development is being marketed by Bold New York, whose CEO has declared that his firm will no longer list properties without virtual tours. 222 Johnson Avenue offers virtual tours, but the fact that these apartments have never been lived in will allow in-person showings to take place more easily.

222 Johnson Avenue is comprised of 118 studio through two-bedroom apartments, some with home office layouts. All homes feature abundant natural light, ambient lighting, smart closets, in-unit washer/dryers, and terra legno hardwood flooring. Select units have private terraces.

Rents start at $2,476/month for studios, $2,875/month for one-beds, and $3,285/month for two-beds. All prices listed are net effective to reflect two months free rent on a 14-month lease. According to CityRealty listings, this puts the building just under the neighborhood's median rent of $2,833/month for studios, $3,300/month for one-beds, and $4,000/month for two-beds

Residential amenities include an attended lobby, a Peloton-outfitted fitness center, a WiFi-equipped residents’ lounge, a private conference room, and a fully furnished roof deck with grills and Manhattan skyline views. There is also on-site parking, but the Montrose Avenue L train station is one block from the building. Indeed, its address on the cusp of Williamsburg and Bushwick allows for convenient access to the best dining, shopping, nightlife, and culture that two of Brooklyn’s hottest neighborhoods have to offer.
