One Hanson Place
FORT GREENE, BROOKLYN
The Heart of Brooklyn
One Hanson Place is one of the city's architectural icons and an officially designated NYC landmark. Originally constructed as The Williamsburgh Savings Bank Tower in 1929, the building was recently converted into luxury condominiums, and includes doctors' offices on the lower floors and the cathedral-like bank atrium dedicated to hosting special events.
Situated in the heart of Fort Greene's BAM Art District, One Hanson Place is surrounded by thriving restaurants, bars, shops, and galleries. Atlantic Terminal provides access to nearly every subway line and the LIRR, Barclays Center is just steps away, and the Brooklyn Academy of Music is immediately adjacent.
