598 Sterling Place, known as Sterling Curve, is a seven-home ground-up condo on Sterling Place between Franklin and Classon Avenues in western Crown Heights, a few minutes from the Franklin Avenue 2, 3, 4 and 5. Five of the seven homes have already sold, and one is publicly listed now.
Where Things Stand
The Attorney General accepted the offering plan on December 22, 2025, and sales launched in January 2026. Contracts came quickly from February through June, and as of November 1, 2026, five homes have closed, the penthouse duplex is listed, and one more one-bedroom is temporarily off the market. I live down the street and watched the glass balconies and black brick take shape. Join my early access list below and you'll hear about price changes and the last homes before they're gone.

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
The building is named for its curved front, and the warm, natural palette carries inside: wide-plank oak floors, exposed stained wood details, custom cabinetry with Quartz Taj Mahal counters and full-height backsplashes, integrated appliances, Breccia Pernice marble vanities and an in-unit washer and dryer. Every home has outdoor space, from balconies on the one-bedrooms to the garden-level duplex's backyard and the penthouse terraces. It's a walk-up.

Crown Heights Highlights
This is the western edge of Crown Heights, where the blocks between Franklin and Classon Avenues feel close to Prospect Heights. Franklin Avenue's restaurants and cafes are around the corner, and the Brooklyn Museum, Botanic Garden and Prospect Park are an easy walk.
The S shuttle at Park Place, about a 2-minute walk, with quick transfers to the C and the B and Q
The 2, 3, 4 and 5 at Franklin Avenue, about 4 minutes on foot
The Brooklyn Museum, Brooklyn Botanic Garden and Prospect Park, about 10 minutes away
Katie's Take
I track every new development in Brooklyn, and here's how this one compares: at about $1,320 a square foot across its sales, 598 Sterling Place sits near the top of Crown Heights new development, just under 701 Prospect Place and above the sold-out 820 Classon Avenue and 582 Park Place. Five of seven homes went into contract within about five months of launch, which is a fast pace for the neighborhood. With only the penthouse publicly listed, a buyer who wants a two-bedroom with real outdoor space this close to Franklin Avenue has very few other new options right now.
