Summary

The Brook is a 591-apartment Downtown Brooklyn rental completed in 2025, with an outdoor pool, sports court, multiple fitness areas, terraces and coworking spaces. Residents praise the front-desk staff, events and design, while unresolved maintenance, HVAC and water issues, pest and trash concerns and a serious access-control complaint reflect a building still working through early operations.

Reviews

The Brook’s design and amenity package make a strong first impression, and many residents value the warm front-desk and events teams. The negative record is more material than at a settled building, with recurring reports about incomplete repairs, ventilation or water problems, pests and front-desk access control.

What residents praise

Front-desk staff are the building’s strongest asset

Residents repeatedly describe the concierge team as warm, attentive and helpful, often naming staff who make the new building feel more personal.

Amenities and events feel distinctive

The pool, fitness areas, terraces and resident events earn specific praise, with the building’s design and views making a strong impression.

Routine maintenance can be responsive

Some residents report quick repairs and hardworking cleaning teams, particularly when an issue reaches the right on-site staff member.

What residents complain about

Repairs can be closed before the problem is solved

Residents describe recurring AC, washer, leak and finish problems, slow follow-up and tickets marked complete while the issue remains.

Pests, trash and sewer odors recur

Residents report pests on lower floors, inconsistent trash-room and hallway cleaning and sewage odors; recent building complaints show the same cluster of concerns.

Access control has failed at least one resident

One resident gives a detailed account of a person being sent to her apartment without notification despite a do-not-admit instruction, supported by several related visitor reports.

Amenities

The Brook has in-unit laundry, central air and a 24-hour attended lobby. Recreation spaces include fitness and yoga studios, an outdoor pool, landscaped terraces and sports courts, with a package room and private storage.

Building records

Housing complaints are relatively uncommon compared with similar buildings, with noise, hot water and ventilation among the main reports. Open violations involving damaged surfaces and windows make the condition of the specific apartment worth checking.
