680 Essex Street is a rare, L-shaped development site situated in the center of East New York, one of Brooklyn’s fastest-growing residential corridors. Spanning 20,000 square feet with generous 120-foot frontage along Essex Street and 80 feet along Linwood Street, the property offers outstanding visibility, access, and design flexibility. Its R5 Qualifying Residential Site designation, substantial proposed buildable area, and adjacency to transferable air rights create a favorable foundation for medium-density residential development. Positioned steps from the New Lots Avenue 3 train and multiple bus lines, the site provides seamless connectivity throughout Brooklyn and the wider metro area. Major arterials including Linden Boulevard, Atlantic Avenue, and the Belt Parkway further enhance accessibility. Surrounded by significant public and private investment, large-scale housing projects, and the nearby Gateway Center, 680 Essex Street sits within a rapidly evolving district that continues to introduce new amenities, jobs, and community resources.
