Ongoing Projects
PLG
We have recently acquired a property in the Prospect Lefferts Garden neighborhood in Brooklyn.
This will be a refurbishment and new addition development of a multifamily residential building to be operated as a co-living and micro-studio community by Madelon. Residents of Prospect Lefferts Gardens call it “Brooklyn’s best-kept secret.” Flying under the radar of higher-profile neighborhoods, this area is home to lush, leafy streets, a spectacular collection of intact 19th and 20th-century homes, and access to the borough’s biggest green space, Prospect Park. Welcome to the Upper West Side of Brooklyn.
Please note: this project is fully funded. See our open projects below for future investment opportunities.
Clinton Hill
Combining the innovative with the vintage, this adaptive re-use project will bring something completely unique to a classic New York neighborhood.
Centrally located in Brooklyn, Clinton Hill offers the youthful energy of a leafy college town with a laid-back, genteel atmosphere that’s a draw for young families. Snag one of the many coveted brownstones or historic mansions set on the wide avenues and cobblestones streets, and you might never leave.
Currently accepting follow-on investments.
Park Slope
Described as one of the greatest neighborhoods in America, Park Slope is one of New York's most desirable residences due to its excellent schools, dining, nightlife, and shopping, amongst other things. Inside its leafy streets, surrounded by historic structures that house bookstores, restaurants, coffee shops and boutiques.
The rolling landscape of Prospect Park offers residents the perfect escape from the big city. Dog and family friendly, the park is a go-to destination for a range of outdoor sports and in the summer offers concerts by well-known bands.
