Unit 37A spans 4,100 square feet and has four bedrooms and three bathrooms. The unit has 20-foot ceilings and double-height windows, along with views of the harbor from the primary bedroom and en-suite bathroom.
The 134-unit, 38-story building towers above the neighborhood skyline from the site of the former Brooklyn Heights Library. Amenities in the building include a fitness center, terrace, sky lounge, parking and a full-time staff.
