Overview of Turner Towers at 135 Eastern Parkway

Turner Towers, built in 1926 as Brooklyn's first residential high-rise, stands as an iconic Art Deco landmark at 135 Eastern Parkway in Prospect Heights. The 16-story building, developed by Morris Turner, was converted to a cooperative in the 1980s and underwent significant renovation in the 1990s under John B. Lovett & Associates. Notable former residents include comedian Joan Rivers, who grew up in Apartment 107.

The building features distinctive architectural elements including a limestone base, recessed central entrance with canopy, and concrete construction that provides excellent soundproofing. Apartments typically showcase pre-war details such as herringbone hardwood floors, high beamed ceilings, and generous room proportions.

Residents enjoy white-glove amenities including 24-hour doorman service, an elegant marble lobby, a modern gym equipped with Peloton equipment, a children's playroom, bike storage, and a professionally landscaped tea garden. The building offers basement storage facilities and maintains a strong sense of community through regular resident events.

Turner Towers occupies a prime location along America's first parkway, designed by Frederick Law Olmsted. The building sits directly across from the Brooklyn Museum, Brooklyn Botanic Garden, and Prospect Park, with the 2/3 subway lines at its doorstep, offering convenient access to Manhattan in under 15 minutes.

Sales History

Price/Room (Est)

Why are we displaying the estimated price per room?

For some co-ops, instead of price per square foot, we use an estimate of the number of rooms for each sold apartment to chart price changes over time. This is because many co-op listings do not include square footage information, and this makes it challenging to calculate accurate square-foot averages.

By displaying the price per estimated room count, we are able to provide a more reliable and consistent metric for comparing sales in the building. While we hope that this gives you a clearer sense of price trends in the building, all data should be independently verified. All data provided are only estimates and should not be used to make any purchase or sale decision.
