We’re loving this lofty new listing at 144 Franklin Street in Greenpoint, and that’s not just because its cornice is featured in the Brownstoner header or that Montrose Morris made it the Building of the Day a couple of weeks ago! This apartment is the entire second floor of the landmarked Mechanics and Traders Bank building at the corner of Greenpoint Avenue. It’s fairly unadorned–and there are no photos of bathrooms or kitchen–so we suspect there will be some work a buyer will want to do, but it’s a pretty great blank canvas to work with.

  1. When I moved to NYC in the early 90s, I was looking for a 3BR with two roommates. This apartment was for rent (pretty sure it was this floor, anyway) and the rent was $1300. I had never heard of such an exorbitant price in my LIFE. I was completely flabbergasted! OFFENDED, even! Ha.
