“1406-A” Pacific Street, presented by Waterview Advisory Group and The Gottlieb Team, offers a vacant-land development opportunity in the heart of Crown Heights—one of Brooklyn's most active and supply-constrained residential submarkets.
Notables:
The site presents meaningful upside through the Universal Affordability Preference (UAP) program, which may increase residential zoning floor area to approximately 8,357 square feet, subject to applicable program requirements and approvals.
For developers pursuing alternative programming, the R6 district permits community facility development at a 4.8 FAR, supporting up to approximately 10,286 buildable square feet. This creates additional flexibility for a range of potential uses, including community, educational, medical, religious, or institutional facilities, as well as development strategies incorporating community-facility components where permitted.
The property comprises a 20' x 107.17' lot totaling approximately 2,143 square feet and is zoned R6. As-of-right residential development permits approximately 4,714 zoning floor area, based on a 2.2 FAR. The site also presents meaningful upside through the Universal Affordability Preference (UAP) program, which may increase residential zoning floor area to approximately 8,357 square feet, subject to applicable program requirements and approvals.
Delivered vacant, the site eliminates demolition costs, tenant relocation issues, and other predevelopment complications common to infill opportunities in Central Brooklyn. A purchaser can move directly into architectural planning, zoning analysis, and DOB filing—supporting a more efficient path to construction.
Crown Heights continues to benefit from durable rental and condominium demand, strong transit connectivity, and ongoing residential investment. Located moments from the Kingston–Throop A/C subway station, “1406-A” Pacific Street provides direct access to Downtown Brooklyn, Lower Manhattan, and the broader city. Its proximity to Prospect Park, Bedford-Stuyvesant, and the wider Central Brooklyn residential market further supports its appeal for multifamily, affordable-housing, mixed-use, or community-facility development strategies.
