Arias Park Slope's retail component complements the building's urban cosmopolitan atmosphere which has garnered considerable public attention since leasing opened earlier this spring. Almost 40% of the 95 upscale residences have been leased.
The building features a mix of studio, one-, and two-bedroom luxury residences complemented by a comprehensive recreational and social amenity package unrivaled in this marketplace. Monthly rents currently range from the $2,100's for studios, $2,400's for one-bedroom homes and $3,400's for two-bedroom residences. Initial occupancy is scheduled for July.
Originally conceived as a condominium building, the new Ismael Leyva-designed building is notable for its multi-toned brick façade which has been inspired by neighboring brownstones and is punctuated by expansive windows, floating glass balconies, and a four-story glass curtain wall that optimizes natural light and captivating views of Prospect Park and the Manhattan skyline.
"Found throughout the homes are high ceilings, solid white oak flooring and chef-inspired kitchens with polished white stone countertops, custom European design white oak cabinetry, breakfast bar and fully-equipped stainless steel appliances," notes Jacqueline Urgo, President of The Marketing Directors, Inc. "Bathrooms are equally impressive, offering marble vanity tops, polished chrome fixtures and deluxe soaking tubs. Most homes also have private terraces or balconies for desirable outdoor space."
Zen-inspired, state-of-the-art recreational and social amenities complete the contemporary urban living experience at Arias. Residents will enjoy a 24-hour attended lobby, a state-of-the-art fitness center and Yoga room, and a resident's lounge featuring a catering kitchen & bar, billiards, plasma TV and a fireplace.
Considerable outdoor space is provided by both the Arias Courtyard which offers a putting green and seating area and the Arias Terrace which features an outdoor garden and seating area.
In addition, the Arias Club 360 boasts 360° rooftop views of Brooklyn and the Manhattan Skyline, lush landscaping with over 600 feet of grass, a soothing water feature, a massive fire pit with seating, a grill, bar & dining area, private cabanas, sunbeds and an outdoor shower.
