The Brooklyner

When it was completed in 2009, The Brooklyner was the tallest building in Brooklyn, a title it held until 2013.

Not to worry for landlord Equity Residential as The Brooklyner Apartments are still highly desirable thanks to a great location in Downtown Brooklyn and booming market. Residences at The Brooklyner are luxurious but have started to show a little bit of age when compared to newer buildings.
