Comunilife will offer on-site social services, across three offices, a conference room and open workstations. The property includes a 2,400-square-foot landscaped backyard, as well as an equally-sized front yard along Park and Throop Avenues.
Amenities include a multi-purpose community room, community kitchen, on-site laundry, bike storage and a computer room. Nearest transit options are the J, M, Z and G trains as well as multiple Brooklyn-bound buses.
