The smoke-free building is located at the southern entrance to Brooklyn Bridge Park, near Pier 6 just off Atlantic Avenue. Amenities include a partially attended lobby, a full-time resident manager, rooftop sun terrace, fitness center, and children’s playroom. On the building’s website, it also says there's a washer and dryer in every unit, contemporary kitchens with stone countertops and stainless steel appliances, bathrooms with custom vanities and stone accents, individual room controls for heating and air conditioning, and wide-plank wood flooring.

The building is located west of the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway. The nearest transit is the ferry terminal at Pier 6, which goes to Bay Ridge and Wall Street. The closest subways are the Borough Hall stops for the 2, 3, 4, and 5 trains, which are from eight to 10 blocks away.
