Building Description

The Kent at 970 Kent Avenue began life in 1915 as the Kaiser Underwear Factory. The industrial space yielded one- and two-bedroom lofts and a bank of penthouses when the business shuttered, with the 12-foot high ceilings and abundant windows becoming airy loft condos in 2004. Open city views are abundant for the nine-story building's 103 units. The mid-rise tower's white brick facade and Neo-Colonial detailing have made the transition to the residential stage of its life. A garden, health and wellness center, private running track, in-building laundry, and children's playroom complete the offerings at 970 Kent Avenue, and there is 24-hour doorman service. Living at The Kent can include dogs and cats.

The Clinton Hill location is convenient to several Brooklyn parks and the Pratt Institute. There are four subway stations for the G Train within a ten-minute walk of The Kent. Big box shopping and the commercial corridor on Myrtle Avenue are close by. So too are the on/off ramps of the Brooklyn Queens Expressway.
