At the corner of 6th Avenue and 2nd Street in Park Slope, a former church is making way for five new four-story, single-family townhouses, a few blocks from Prospect Park. The Brooklyn Home Company, which has 21 recorded Brooklyn condos to its name and built two new single-family houses on Sackett Street, is behind it. No renderings are available yet, but I was by the site on September 25, and the shape of the church still standing is so interesting. I can't wait to see how they turn out.
Where Things Stand
The Brooklyn Home Company bought the corner on February 24, 2023, for $7.5 million. Plans filed with the Department of Buildings call for five separate four-story houses, each on its own tax lot: 300, 302, 304 and 306 6th Avenue, plus 434 2nd Street. Demolition is permitted, the sidewalk shed and scaffolding permits were renewed on September 21, 2026, and the latest amendments to the new building filings were still working through Department of Buildings objections as of July 27, 2026. Because these are planned as fee-simple townhouses rather than condos, no offering plan is expected from the Attorney General, so the first look at pricing will be the listings themselves. Nothing is for sale yet. Join my early access list below and you'll hear when these homes come to market, before they reach StreetEasy.
What We Know So Far
Five single-family houses, each four stories and about 54 feet tall
The new building filing for 306 6th Avenue shows about 22,160 square feet of floor area and says it is filed as part of five buildings, roughly 4,400 square feet per house
Likely four or more bedrooms each, based on that size
Separate tax lots and no condo board, since these are townhouses
No construction loan has been recorded since the 2023 purchase
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
Most new construction in Park Slope is small condo buildings or gut renovations of brownstones. Five new single-family homes, each with its own lot and no condo board, is something the neighborhood rarely sees. The Brooklyn Home Company is a family-run Brooklyn firm known for warm white-and-wood interiors and a custom art piece in every home. Its closest precedent is 328 and 330 Sackett Street in Carroll Gardens, two ground-up single-family houses that sold in 2021 for $6.2 million and $6.7 million. Finishes, layouts and outdoor space haven't been released yet.

Katie's Take
I track every new development filing in Brooklyn, and this one stands out because nearly every Park Slope project in my tracker is a small condo building, with homes mostly averaging 900 to 2,300 square feet, and these are full houses at roughly 4,400 square feet each. Park Slope new development has been running about $1,450 to $1,950 per square foot in my tracker, so a new single-family house here will likely be priced as a true townhouse, not a condo alternative. If a new house with modern systems is on your list, the next milestone is the filings clearing objections and construction getting underway, and with no offering plan coming, the listings will be the first public pricing.
Your next Brooklyn home may be closer than you think. Let's talk.
