Sales Launched For New Empire Real Estate’s Six Garfield

Sales have launched for New Empire Real Estate’s Six Garfield, a new ground-up, 12-story, 33-residence luxury condominium designed by the award-winning design practice DXA studio and rising in Park Slope, Brooklyn.

The building, with a custom roman brick façade in warm gray, will feature side-by-side gold-sheathed cantilevers. DXA, which focuses on authenticity, sustainability and innovation in all projects, incorporates the traditional materiality of Park Slope with the industrial imagination of neighboring Gowanus into the new project. Handmade yet refined, bespoke, and natural materials grace the building throughout residences as well as the robust amenity offering.

Six Garfield Park Slope Off The MRKT.jpg

DXA Principal and Co-Founder Jordan Rogove said, “As a long-time Park Slope resident who once lived around the corner from Six Garfield, I was especially excited for our team to contribute to an impactful era of design sensibility for Brooklyn’s Fourth Avenue, with a building that is both contextual and stand-out in its design. The cantilevers became a key, luminous feature, reflecting light through the gold-sheathing which is repeated and complemented beneath the balconies. We played with patterning throughout the façade and interiors with the offset geometry of the cantilevers and fenestration in the tiling patterns of amenity spaces and residences alike, from elevator banks to bath tile selections.”

Six Garfield is currently under construction, with topping out by end of 2020, and expected occupancy in spring 2021. Six Garfield will offer 33 one- through four-bedroom residences, including some with home office and/or outdoor space. In the initial offering, pricing will start from $715,000 for one-bedroom residences, $1,195,000 for two-bedroom residences, and $1,995,000 for three-bedroom residences. Four-bedroom residences have not yet been released.
