Overview of 500 Metropolitan Avenue

500 Metropolitan Avenue, also entered at 491 Keap Street, is a 14 story mixed use rental building in Williamsburg completed in 2018 by The Chetrit Group and designed by Kutnicki Bernstein. Its V shaped site produces a cascading profile, with blue glass windows, irregular gray piers, and a narrow slanted projection at the base. The 52 apartments occupy the upper floors above a roughly 180 room hotel.

The residences have floor to ceiling windows, satin oak floors, central air, and in unit laundry. Integrated kitchens are finished with stainless steel appliances, white quartz counters, and custom cabinetry, while bathrooms have matte black mosaic floors and large vanities. Many apartments open to private terraces or balconies, and layouts include split bedroom arrangements as well as angled living spaces and kitchens. Higher floor homes have views toward Midtown, Lower Manhattan, and Brooklyn.

Building amenities include a rooftop pool, fitness center, courtyard and garden areas, lounge, spa or therapy room, bike room, basketball and tennis courts, on site parking, and a virtual doorman. Pets are allowed. The residential entrance is adjacent to Kellogg's Diner and overlooks Macri Triangle Park, with the Brooklyn Queens Expressway along the other side of the site.

The Lorimer Street station serves the L train and the Metropolitan Avenue station serves the G train at the subway complex beside the building. McCarren Park and the Williamsburg waterfront are also nearby, placing the residences among the neighborhood's parks, dining, and retail corridors.
