Description 

Situated on a 27×100-foot corner lot at the desirable intersection of Franklin Avenue and Prospect Place, 685 Franklin Avenue is a striking mixed-use building in Crown Heights. The property features 14 rent-stabilized residential units and one commercial. Recent capital improvements include updates to the roof, and upgraded individual meters for electric, gas, and water heaters. With its strong income stream, classic pre-war character, and prime proximity to Prospect Park, the Botanic Garden, and multiple subway lines (2,3,4,5,A,C & S), this is a rare investment opportunity in one of Brooklyn’s coveted neighborhoods.
