Executive Summary

327 Douglass Street, a 6,000-square-foot single-level commercial building currently vacant and delivered as-is, presents a value-add and owner/user opportunity in the heart of Brooklyn.

Formerly home to the School of Rock, the commercial asset features a flexible footprint with up to 14-foot ceilings, exposed beams, oversized entryways, wide corridors, multiple restrooms, and a kitchenette. The building offers 82 feet of frontage and expansive display windows that flood the interior with natural light, creating an ideal canvas for retail, showroom, office, creative, or educational use. Built out with 10 soundproof rooms and a ground-floor stage, the space is primed for repositioning or redevelopment. Located within a federally designated Opportunity Zone, the asset provides qualified investors with potential federal capital gains tax benefits, reinforcing its strong long-term upside.

Positioned just steps from Barclays Center and Atlantic Terminal, 327 Douglass Street benefits from exceptional infrastructure and seamless connectivity via multiple MTA subway lines and the LIRR. The in-line retail location sits along one of Brooklyn’s most active commercial corridors, surrounded by national and neighborhood anchors including Starbucks, Whole Foods Market, and Ninth Street Espresso. Nearly 500,000 residents live within a 2-mile radius, generating approximately $6.4 billion in annual consumer spending with a median household income of $108,000. Strong pedestrian flow, steady vehicle traffic, and dense surrounding development create a dynamic environment that supports sustained commercial demand.

Downtown Brooklyn and Fort Greene continue to demonstrate durable market fundamentals, with consistent demand for high-quality commercial space driven by residential growth, institutional investment, and retail expansion. 327 Douglass Street offers a rare opportunity to reposition a well-located asset in one of New York City’s most vibrant corridors. As Brooklyn’s commercial landscape continues to evolve, this asset provides a strategic platform for investors or owner/users seeking scale, frontage, and enduring market strength.

About North Brooklyn

The North Brooklyn neighborhood includes the popular millennial enclaves of Williamsburg and Greenpoint and extends south to include Gowanus, and Prospect Lefferts Gardens. Historically a residential and industrial area, North Brooklyn's landscape has been altered by the many commercial projects that have broken ground in recent years.

This wave of supply speaks to the shifting demographics in Brooklyn, with developers betting that the robust multifamily demand continues—particularly in Williamsburg and Bushwick—and spurs a corresponding need for office and retail space. The workforce here is largely made up of both highly educated and well-compensated residents.
