Eight New Condos Planned for 1456 Bedford Avenue in Crown Heights

Nov 1

1456 Bedford Avenue is a boutique eight-unit condo being built from the ground up in Crown Heights, a 4-minute walk from the Franklin Avenue Shuttle at Park Place. The sponsor is AB + Construction & Development. It's new construction in one of the most transit-connected pockets of the neighborhood, with the 2, 3, 4 and 5 at Franklin Avenue about 6 minutes away.

Where Things Stand

The offering plan for 1456 Bedford Avenue was submitted to the New York State Attorney General on March 24, 2026, and is awaiting acceptance. No homes are for sale yet, there is no public pricing, and reservations can't be taken. Across the 54 Brooklyn projects I've tracked from filing to acceptance since 2023, most were accepted 5 to 9 months after filing (about 7 and a half months on average), which points to acceptance between roughly August and December 2026. Join my early access list below and you'll hear about pricing and launch timing before it reaches StreetEasy.

What We Know So Far

Eight residences across five floors, new construction
About 8,100 square feet of residential space per Marketproof, roughly 1,000 square feet per home; the DOB permit shows about 10,600 square feet of total floor area, which includes common space
Likely mix: two- and three-bedroom homes based on those sizes. The final mix comes with the accepted plan.
Offering plan filed March 24, 2026
What's next: Attorney General review typically takes several months, and pricing becomes public at acceptance.

Buying in a New Development?

New construction works differently than a resale: offering plans, sponsor contracts, closing costs and timelines all have their own rules.

A Closer Look at the Building

With just eight residences across five floors, 1456 Bedford Avenue is a small building where you'll know your neighbors. As new construction, it brings modern systems and layouts and the chance to be the first owner of your home. It's listed as a walk-up. Finishes, outdoor space and the unit mix will be released when the plan is accepted.

Crown Heights Highlights

Crown Heights is dense with cultural anchors and architecturally rich, with some of the best subway access in the borough. Franklin Avenue's restaurants and cafes are around the corner, and Eastern Parkway leads to the Brooklyn Museum and the Brooklyn Botanic Garden.

The Franklin Avenue Shuttle at Park Place, about a 4-minute walk
The 2, 3, 4 and 5 at Franklin Avenue and the 3 and 4 at Nostrand Avenue, each about 6 minutes
The 2 and 5 at President Street, about 8 minutes, and the A and C at Nostrand Avenue, about 11 minutes
Brower Park and the Brooklyn Children's Museum, a short walk away

Katie's Take

I track every new development filing in Brooklyn, and here's how this one compares: small ground-up buildings near Franklin Avenue have sold steadily, 598 Sterling Place has sold five of its seven homes in about ten months, and 582 Park Place sold all four of its homes. Ground-up buildings in Crown Heights have been asking about $1,200 to $1,400 a square foot, above the conversions. With eight homes and acceptance likely by the end of the year, the first buyers here will have the most choice of layouts, so the sales launch is the moment to be ready for.
