Added to the List: Front & York, DUMBO

I’ve added Front & York to my 'Condos/Co-ops With Outdoor Pools' list on Google Maps. Check it out!

This is one of the biggest new residential developments in DUMBO, a full-block project at 85 Jay Street, designed by Morris Adjmi Architects.

It manages to look both new and contextual, with warehouse-style brickwork, grid windows, and metal detailing that fit right into the neighborhood’s industrial streetscape.

Inside, the apartments are as polished as you’d expect: high ceilings, chevron-patterned oak floors, Gaggenau appliances, marble baths, and big divided-light windows overlooking the Brooklyn Bridge or skyline. Most of the finishes lean warm and understated - it’s luxury, but not flashy.

The amenities are what put this place over the top. There’s a Life Time fitness club built into the base of the complex, co-working spaces, a wine room, children’s play areas, and a private half-acre park landscaped by Michael Van Valkenburgh Associates. And yes, an outdoor rooftop pool with cabanas and wide-open Manhattan views.

Prices vary a lot depending on floor and layout. Recent listings show one-bedrooms starting around $1.1 million, with larger homes and penthouses pushing well past $3 million. That puts it roughly in line with other high-end DUMBO buildings like Olympia or 1 John Street, though Front & York leans more toward resort-style amenities than minimalist loft living.

For buyers drawn to DUMBO’s mix of industrial character and luxury convenience, and who actually want an outdoor pool in the mix, this is about as comprehensive as it gets.
