A housing lottery launched this week for 141 middle-income apartments at a newly constructed building that borders Brooklyn’s Flatbush and Prospect-Lefferts Gardens neighborhoods. Dubbed “PLG,” the 26-story tower at 123 Linden Boulevard sits a few blocks from the southern end of Prospect Park and boasts 50,000 square feet of indoor and outdoor amenity space. As the tallest building in the neighborhood at 320 feet, PLG offers unobstructed panoramic views of Prospect Park, the Manhattan skyline, and the Verrazano Bridge. Qualifying New Yorkers earning 130 percent of the area median income can apply for the units, which range from $2,156/month studios to $3,122/month three-bedrooms.

Designed by Hill West Architects with interiors by Whitehall Interiors, the rental tower contains 467 rental units, with 30 percent of them affordable. As CityRealty notes, the exterior aims to complement its neighbors with its masonry on the park side and a glass curtain wall facing the street.
Some apartments will feature private balconies; all units include keyless entries, in-unit washer/dryers, and stainless steel appliances.

PLG’s amenity package makes it a unique rental in the neighborhood. Residents can enjoy a rooftop pool with 360-degree views, an indoor pool with a steam room and sauna, fitness center, a 27th outdoor terrace with grills, an open-air lounge, a half-court basketball court, playground, dog run, and pet wash station.
Leasing for the market-rate apartments launched earlier this year, starting at studios for $2,300/month, one-bedrooms at $2,475/month, two-bedrooms at $3,600/month, and three-bedrooms at $4,500/month.
Qualifying New Yorkers can apply for the apartments at 123 Linden Boulevard until February 3, 2020. Complete details on how to apply are available here (pdf). Questions regarding this offer must be referred to NYC’s Housing Connect department by dialing 311.
