Pieds-a-terre, guarantors/co-purchasing and up to 80% financing are all permitted. Residents of The Remsen enjoy being just one block from both Montague Street and the Promenade, moments from Brooklyn Bridge Park and having easy access to multiple subway lines (2/3, 4/5, A/C, R) with Manhattan just one stop away.
