Pierhouse
The selection of granite for the building’s exterior was inspired by the Brooklyn Bridge, which is visible just to the north of Pierhouse
Located adjacent to the 85-acre Brooklyn Bridge Park and offering unrivalled views of the Manhattan skyline, Pierhouse’s remaining one-to-five bedroom homes are duplexes spread across two separate waterfront buildings, many with double-height living rooms and private outdoor space. A lush environment, conceived by landscape architect Michael Van Valkenburgh Associates, includes private rooftops and landscaped terraces designed to complement the surrounding park. The condominium is expected to achieve LEED Silver certification.
Bathrooms feature Waterworks® fixtures, Lithoverde® Bianco Carrara by Salvatori, and walnut and brushed nickel vanities. The selection of granite for the building’s exterior was inspired by the Brooklyn Bridge, which is visible just to the north of Pierhouse. Many residences feature spectacular views of the New York skyline, East River, Statue of Liberty and Brooklyn Bridge Park. The interiors and exteriors were sustainably designed by Marvel Architects.
Residents have access to countless amenities, including two 24-hour attended lobbies, multiple fitness centres, a meditation studio, a resident event space, children’s playroom, pet wash, refrigerated storage and on-site valet parking. Cyclists will be welcomed with bicycle storage and access to Brooklyn Bridge Park in their front yard. In addition, residents can utilise the amenities of the adjoining eco-luxe Hotel Brooklyn Bridge, which includes a farm-to-table restaurant that will prepare fresh, local ingredients, a world-class spa, rooftop pool and bar, an artisanal café and juice bar, private dining rooms, a wedding terrace and over 2,000 square metres of event space. 1 Hotel Brooklyn Bridge is slated to open in autumn 2016.
On the waterfront, at the intersection of Brooklyn Heights and DUMBO, Pierhouse is located adjacent to Brooklyn Bridge Park, offering more than a mile of outdoor space and ample room for boating, athletics, dog-walking and more. Brooklyn Heights offers a perfect blend of residential charm and all the conveniences of city living, with the iconic Brooklyn Heights Promenade providing picturesque views during a stroll through the neighbourhood. DUMBO is home to one of the premier art districts in New York, a yearly farmers’ market and the critically acclaimed DUMBO Arts Festival. The ferry’s DUMBO stop is just a few steps away from Pierhouse, with several subway lines nearby. Residents will enjoy easy access to Wall Street, Midtown Manhattan and Brooklyn from the East River Ferry and New York City Subway systems.
