Boutique 2002 factory conversion featuring seven distinctive lofts with exposed brick, original pine floors, and modern chef's kitchens. Perfectly positioned between South Slope and Greenwood Heights with rooftop views, vibrant dining, and Prospect Park nearby.
248 17th Street, also known as Northlight, is a former industrial warehouse converted into a boutique condominium in 2002. The interconnected brick, timber frame, and concrete structures retain their factory character, and the conversion was designed by architect Robert D. Henry, whose work emphasizes wellness and sustainable design.
Many apartments have exposed brick, original wide plank pine floors, high ceilings, skylights or oversized windows, and open loft layouts with flexible sleeping or work areas. In unit laundry and generous storage recur across the residences, while a shared roof deck and bike storage serve the condominium; pets are permitted.
The building's most distinctive residence is an artist loft arranged over four levels, with a private garden and a basement workshop, an unusually expansive configuration for the neighborhood. Other apartments range from open studio like layouts to lofts organized around separate bedrooms and offices, reflecting the building's industrial proportions rather than a standardized floor plan.
At the meeting of South Slope and Greenwood Heights, the building is just off 5th Avenue's restaurants, cafes, and shops, with a grocery store at the corner. Prospect Park is up the hill and Greenwood Cemetery is a few blocks away, while 17th Street hosts the South Slope Derby each August.
