Located at 868 Lorimer Street in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, directly across from McCarren Park where Williamsburg meets Greenpoint, 868 Lorimer On The Park is a boutique seven-story residential building containing 14 unique condominium residences. The design responds to its park-facing setting with generous glazing and private outdoor space at nearly every unit, anchoring the building to its neighborhood context while offering views of the park and the Manhattan skyline beyond.
The 14 homes range from studios to four-bedroom layouts and are designed around a quiet, material-driven palette: 5-inch white oak plank floors, custom Italian cabinetry, independently zoned HVAC with state-of-the-art energy recovery ventilation units, and a full bathroom for every bedroom. Private outdoor spaces are pre-fitted with lighting, gas, and water hookups to support indoor-outdoor living.
Building amenities include a gated pick-up and drop-off area, a bicycle garage, a multifunction room with communal work space and a children's play room, and a landscaped interior courtyard. Designed to achieve LEED home certification, 868 Lorimer On The Park is a collaboration between Chatham Development Company, Stephen B. Jacobs Group, and Ole Sondresen Architect — a considered contribution to Greenpoint's evolving residential fabric.
