Overview of Avalon Brooklyn Bay at 1501 Voorhies Avenue

Avalon Brooklyn Bay is a 30 story mixed-use tower in Sheepshead Bay completed in 2017 by developers Avalon Bay Communities and Muss Development, with Perkins Eastman as architect. The reflective glass building at 1501 Voorhies Avenue contains 180 rental apartments on its lower 11 floors and 56 condominiums (marketed as 1 Brooklyn Bay or The Aqualina) on the upper 19 floors, making it the tallest building in the neighborhood. The site previously saw a 22 story condo proposal abandoned after local opposition.

Apartments feature open layouts with large windows and abundant natural light, with many units offering Sheepshead Bay water views and private balconies. Kitchens come with modern cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and stone countertops, while bathrooms include premium fixtures and tile finishes. All units include in-unit washer/dryers. The building offers studio, one, two, and three bedroom residences.

The smoke free development provides a resort style outdoor pool, a 2,500 square foot fitness center, and a 19th floor Sky Lounge with rooftop access. Additional amenities include a full time attended lobby, bocce court, dog run with pet grooming services, BBQ and grilling areas, on-site parking garage, and bicycle storage. The building is located near the B and Q subway lines with express bus service to Manhattan, approximately 30 minutes from Midtown, and features a pedestrian bridge to nearby Manhattan Beach.
