Introducing The Williamsburg Firehouse Lofts, an unprecedented condo conversion.
When 1196 Metropolitan Avenue was still a functioning firehouse, Engine Company No. 206—also referred to as The Brooklyn Gashouse Gang—was housed there. Following its closure in the late 1970s, the structure was converted into the Metropolitan Social Club, an underground music venue famed for its wild parties and live music. Subsequently, the firehouse was transformed into artist lofts in the 1980s, a residence for numerous local artists for more than thirty years. These six distinctive loft apartments are up for sale for the first time ever!
This classic conversion, brimming with character, history, and the essence of Brooklyn, is an incredibly rare chance to buy a piece of New York City history and turn it into your ideal home. With its open concept living rooms and enormous amounts of space, these homes provide countless chances for personalisation and creation of a genuinely one-of-a-kind space that fits the owner's particular lifestyle. 1196 Metropolitan can accommodate your needs, whether they are for a 12-person dining table, 15-foot book shelves, aerial yoga, or a somewhere to park your vintage Vespa.
Each property has stunning exposed brick walls and breathtaking 16-foot barrel vaulted ceilings. Sunlight streams in throughout the day because to enormous skylights and extra tall windows, many of which provide views of Manhattan and Brooklyn. Although the building has many historic characteristics that add warmth, character, and a feeling of history, the apartments are ready for immediate occupancy with remodelled kitchens and bathrooms that include new appliances and contemporary cabinets, fixtures, and finishes. For effective heating and cooling, brand-new mini split systems have also been installed throughout the flats. The penthouse units offer huge private roof decks with magnificent views, and two of the homes have private balconies. The huge basement has two individual storage rooms that are for sale, laundry, and plenty of space for storing bikes.
