Over 50 percent of the residences at Boulevard East, a newly constructed 99 unit condominium building located at 53 Boerum Place in Brooklyn, were snapped up in the first week on the market Sept. 13, over 70 percent of the residences are sold. Developed by Brooklyn Bridge Blvd. LLC, an SDS/Procida venture, Boulevard East is the first building to rise in Brooklyn’s Redevelopment Zone.
 
“The reaction to Boulevard East has been extraordinary,” said Cheryl Nielsen-Saaf, senior vice president of The Corcoran Group Brooklyn Division. “Buyers are appreciating the quality and number of amenities included in each residence for an incredibly reasonable price.”
 
Luxurious studio, one-, and two- bedroom homes are priced from $250,000 to $700,000.
 
Nicknamed the “BE” building and billed as the next hot spot for young, forward-thinking buyers, Boulevard East is a standout in the booming Boerum Place Gateway with sleek architectural design by The Stephen B. Jacobs Group, P.C.,
 
The residences feature the latest state-of-the-art home-integrated network technology.  Each condominium is wired so residents can share printers and computer files throughout each home, and residents are able to download music, videos and movies from the Internet, send it to their entertainment center and view the material on their plasma screen TV.
 
Boulevard East also offers residents a beautifully landscaped and spacious second floor courtyard, onsite parking, onsite laundry, around-the-clock doorman service and other conveniences of modern living. An expansive Club Room off the lobby functions as a gallery featuring local art, a TV and movie viewing area with a plasma screen TV, and a meeting space.  An adjacent fitness center is a convenient and state-of-the-art place for residents to workout.
 
Boulevard East also boasts luxurious features and finishes.  TEK Architects, in association with Stephen B. Jacobs, designed the warm contemporary lobby with exotic English sycamore wood finishes and clean architectural elements of glass and stone.
 
All Boulevard East homes are equipped with maple hardwood floors, satin finish hardware and ample closet space.  The air-conditioned residences are designed for energy-efficient living, and large window openings maximize natural light. Homes with private terraces are also available.
