According to Prudential Douglas Elliman, exclusive sales and marketing agent for Williamsburg's Schaefer Landing complex, the new luxury residences at Schaefer Landing North are 70% sold within two months of their sales "kick off."

This success in the new 26-story North Tower, which features 135 beautifully appointed residences, comes just weeks after a complete sell-out of Schaefer Landings South Tower.

"Schaefer Landing North is continuation of the same extraordinary attention to design, detail, and a quality of life that embodies Schaefer Landing," said Andy Gerringer, Managing Director of Prudential Douglas Elliman's Development Marketing Group.

Located in Brooklyn, Schaefer Landing has spearheaded the transformation of a once industrial area into a residential community filled with sophistication, style and culture. "It is no surprise that these buildings are selling out so quickly," said Gerringer.

Originally the site of the F&M Schaefer Brewery Company, renowned architect Gene Kaufman has transformed the site into Williamsburg's first waterfront luxury condominium--with incomparable river views and vistas of spectacular downtown Manhattan.

The residences at The Schaefer Landing North Tower, which range in size from 860 to 2,000 s/f, boast balconies, gardens and terraces. Each residence features lustrous oak floors, pre-wiring for phone, fax, cable TV and internet access, a washer/dryer in every home, expansive "tilt and turn" thermal pane windows and walk-in closets in many master bedrooms.

The community is being developed by Kent Waterfront Associates LLC, a tri-venture formed by three New York-based real estate companies active in building and managing residential properties throughout the metropolitan area--BFC Partners, L&M Equity Participants and Allstate Realty Associates.

Apartments ranges from $650,000, to $2 million.
