The Greenpoint, Residential tower in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, US
The Greenpoint is a 40-story residential tower along the East River waterfront containing 368 units, many with floor-to-ceiling windows facing Manhattan's skyline. The building offers shared amenities including lounges and recreational spaces for residents to gather.
Construction of this complex finished in 2018 and marked a key moment in Brooklyn's shift from industrial waterfront to residential neighborhoods. The project was part of a broader wave of development that reshaped Greenpoint over recent decades.
The area around the building transitioned from a Polish immigrant community to a diverse neighborhood where art galleries and local shops blend with new residences. Walking through Greenpoint, you still notice the legacy of earlier communities in the streets and smaller businesses.
The building sits within walking distance of several subway lines and near a NYC Ferry dock at India Street providing quick access to Manhattan. The flat neighborhood is easy to navigate on foot, with shops and restaurants spread throughout the surrounding area.
Each unit features dark wood cabinetry, white stone countertops, and matte black fixtures creating a consistent design throughout the interior. These coordinated finishes give the homes a refined, contemporary look.
