Architect-designed Bushwick carriage house with a yard and private garage asks $2.4M
Dubbed "Red Spiral House" for the distinctive tomato-red steel staircase that anchors the space from top to bottom, this architect-designed converted Bushwick carriage house at 290 Bleecker Street is a standout. The colorful home was created within a narrow, rectangular space–albeit one with a private yard and garage. Previously featured in Architectural Digest, its industrial proportions are highlighted by high ceilings, skylights, and steel-framed glass walls that offer a loft vibe and an eyeful of the outdoors. Asking $2,390,000, the home is for sale by the current owner, who also listed it as a rental for $9,900 a month.

This $2.7M free-standing mansion with details intact sits on Bushwick’s historic ‘Doctors’ Row’
Though you might not think of Bushwick as the go-to neighborhood for grand, free-standing turn-of-the-20th-century mansions, a historic strip of Bushwick Avenue is home to quite a few. Known as "Doctors' Row" or "Brewer's Row" (several of its homes were built by beer baron William Ulmer), the avenue still boasts a number of impressive free-standing townhouses, including the landmarked Huberty House at number 1019. Built in 1900, the 4,250-square-foot home was designed in the Colonial Revival style by Helmle & Huberty, designers of the Prospect Park Boathouse among others. Asking $2,700,000, the townhouse has been owned by the same family since 1937, and many of its original details remain intact.

NYC to invest $75M towards completion of long-awaited Bushwick Inlet Park

Mayor Bill de Blasio announced on Monday that the city has allocated $75 million of its budget for the construction of the final piece of Bushwick Inlet Park. The funding will be for work on the next phases of the park, which begins with the demolition of the CitiStorage warehouse that sits on a parcel of land the city purchased in 2017 but has yet to rebuild.

A hydroponic farm, mini golf, and rock climbing: Inside Bushwick’s sprawling Denizen development
Five years in the making, the sprawling Denizen Bushwick is now complete. The 1.2 million-square-foot complex designed by ODA New York and developed by All Year Management stands on part of the former Rheingold Brewery Site and covers two city blocks with addresses at 54 Noll Street and 123 Melrose Street. Perceived as a monolith from the street, the complex’s interior features a series of interconnected courtyards and a green promenade. Also of note are 15 large-scale murals painted throughout the building’s circulation corridors by local artists. With an extensive amenities package that seems to include everything under the sun, it’s no wonder the project has been described as a “city within the city.”

Bushwick rezoning stalled after city dismisses community plan
The plan to rezone Bushwick hit a possibly fatal roadblock Monday after city officials and local politicians failed to reach an agreement on affordable housing requirements. The city said it will not study the Bushwick Community Plan (BCP), first envisioned by the community in 2014 to address out-of-context development, as part of its proposal, effectively postponing the rezoning. After years of Bushwick residents calling for a study of the area's growing gentrification, the city released its official rezoning plan last April. But local stakeholders and leaders, including Council Members Antonio Reynoso and Rafel Espinal Jr., said the city's plan fell short of the vision laid out in the BCP.

Reports find open space falls short of key goals in Bushwick, Long Island City, and part of Staten Island
New Yorkers for Parks has released three new Open Space Index reports, a series of in-depth “neighborhood snapshots” of parks and open space in Staten Island's Bay Street Corridor, Bushwick, and Long Island City. According to the reports, the Bay Street Corridor failed 11 of 14 open space goals, Bushwick failed 12 of 14, and Long Island City failed 11 of 14. The goals factor in characteristics including the total amount of open space, access, tree canopy, and overall maintenance. According to the City’s own standards, all of the neighborhoods lack sufficient open space and what does exist is often hard to get to or improperly maintained.
