01 / The Building

New construction, built for people who make things.

497 Carroll Street is a new eight-story building on the Gowanus canal blocks. Buff and tan brick, a charcoal brick tower, and oversized black steel-framed windows that pull daylight deep into every floor.

Floors two through eight are creative office lofts on 4,000 SF plates. Take a full floor with your own elevator arrival, or a divided suite when you need less. The ground floor is retail, so the street stays busy at grade.

This is Gowanus: designers, fabricators, architects, production crews and independent studios, minutes from Carroll Gardens and Park Slope.
