HVAC keeps you warm and cool year 'round. Solar panels on the roof of the building generate credits to dramatically offset your electric bills. ButterflyMX virtual doorman. Very close to the Franklin Ave C & Shuttle (to Prospect Park) and surrounded by a plethora of restaurants and shopping. Upfront costs: $20 rental application fee per applicant. At lease signing: first month's rent and one-month security deposit.
