SHEEPSHEAD BAY — A new European-style residential building is ready to launch sales on the waterfront in Sheepshead Bay.

The ribbon-cutting ceremony last week attracted Brooklyn Borough President Marty Markowitz to join John Reinhardt, president and CEO of Fillmore Real Estate, the exclusive sales agent for Bay Breeze Bay Breeze is described as a high-end, European-style residence offering studios to penthouses at relatively affordable prices — from the low $200,000s to the $800,000 range.

“Bay Breeze’s Sheepshead Bay neighborhood is enjoying a renaissance,” said John Reinhardt, Fillmore CEO. “Proximity to the water, boating and fishing activities, and a plethora of fine shops and amenities make it one of Brooklyn’s most desirable communities.”

Signs of the area’s resurgence include the reopening of Lundy’s; the opening of Baku Palace, an upscale French and Russian restaurant; the addition of Loehmann’s at Seaport Plaza; and the annual BayFest along Emmons Avenue that has been attracting crowds of more than 100,000 in recent years, according to Reinhardt.

The development is a project of Emmons Coyle Realty LLC, with Marco Ricotta named as principal in Department of Buildings documents.

The architect is Bricolage Designs, a Brooklyn firm.

The complex itself offers substantial amenities like a private cabana club overlooking the water, with sauna and hot tubs; parking in an underground garage; and concierge and doorman service.

Each of the individual units has a Jacuzzi and washer/dryer and 90 percent of them have their own outdoor living space.

“We’re already receiving an overwhelming amount of interest from prospective buyers,” said Reinhardt. “Our pre-construction pricing phase sold out in just one week.”
