Front & York Street

DUMBO is a historic and charming neighborhood in Brooklyn, NY. Consisting of two sections, DUMBO (short for Down Under the Manhattan Overpass) begins at the eastern side of the Brooklyn Bridge, extends past the Manhattan Bridge, and ends at the western border of Vinegar Hill. It is a unique neighborhood that reflects a bespoke architectural style specific to its industrial history. The area's newest development, Front & York (85 Jay Street), has 728 units split between 408 condo units and 320 rental units. The building features premium residential amenities and Brooklyn's largest private courtyard park, designed by Michael Van Valkenburgh Associates. The building, which occupies the entire city block, has an intentional "community within a community" feel. The complex-like building was developed by CIM Group and LIVWRK and designed by Morris Adjmi Architects. The elevator contractor is Contractor Services, and the elevator consultant was VDA.
