Concord Village

Moved here six months ago and couldn’t be happier so far. As a prior reviewer noted, the apartments are large and well laid out, though some need renovating to come up to modern amenity levels. The grounds are beautiful and implacably maintained. Staff is helpful and friendly. Location is ideal for commuting to lower Manhattan, and will only get better with the redevelopment of the former Jehovah’s Witnesses properties. This place really is the best kept secret in Bk!

Great place to live. One stop from Manhattan and surrounded by great neighborhoods.

I was born and raised in Concord Village. The buildings really are a great bang for the buck. Spacious lay-​outs and many great amenities: private grassy backyard areas, ²⁴⁄₇ doormen, parking (if you’re lucky), gym, dry-​cleaning on property and the rooftop views closer to the bridge are beautiful. The location is pretty good for subways: ACE, ⁴⁄₅ and F train are within walking distance. ²⁄₃ is a bit of a hike. Yet, summer time is wonderful because you can walk the bridge or head down to DUMBO easily.
However, the buildings are from the 1950’s so if you are in an apartment that has not been renovated, it will be dated. My family renovated our apartment and actually combined a 2 bedroom with a studio to make a nice new layout when I was growing up. Although there are over 1,000 apartments it is very much a «village» and there is a wonderful sense of community!

Best place to live in NY! Amazing views, great apartment layouts and community feel. Really could not be happier!
