Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

306 Water Street offers a 50' x 100' lot with an existing 5,000 SF single-story building positioned for redevelopment. The site is zoned R6B and provides an opportunity for 10,000 ZFA (Standard) or 12,000 ZFA (UAP), supporting flexible residential development concepts. The property also presents the opportunity to build two 25' townhouses on the site.

The site is located in the DUMBO / Vinegar Hill area of Brooklyn and is described as being in an Inner Transit Zone. Access to Manhattan and the wider metro area is supported by nearby transit at York Street station, with Lower Manhattan reachable in under 10 minutes and Midtown in under 20 minutes, as well as waterfront commuting via the Dumbo ferry terminal. The neighborhood’s amenities are noted as being within walking distance, including Brooklyn Bridge Park, Time Out Market, Empire Stores, and a collection of restaurants, cafes, and boutique retailers.

For developers, the property is positioned to support either a rental development strategy that may benefit from 485-X tax abatement incentives, or a condominium project driven by the fundamentals described for the area. With boutique-scale parameters and a redevelopment-ready existing building, the site is suited for buyers seeking a compact, townhouse-oriented residential development within a well-connected waterfront community.
