Brooklyn, NY West Egg Development, in partnership with Bobby Shamsian’s Brookbridge Developers, has acquired its fourth site on one block of East 53^rd St. in the East Flatbush neighborhood. West Egg Development is owned and managed by Great Neck developer Sam Eshaghoff. This most recent acquisition by the firm, 76 East 53^rd St., is currently a single-family property on the corner of Winthrop St. The site totals development potential of 9,069 s/f.

According to public records, Eshaghoff purchased 110 East 53^rd St. in February 2019. With Brookbridge, he purchased 104-108 East 53^rd St. in October 2019. In total, the four sites were purchased for $2.65 million and represent 27,000 s/f of development potential.

Renderings for West Egg’s projects show modern-looking facades with outdoor spaces, characteristic of high-end rental apartments.

The neighborhood is anchored by the gargantuan Kings County Hospital. As the next neighborhood just outside already-gentrified enclaves like Crown Heights and Prospect Lefferts Gardens, East Flatbush is becoming a playground for developers to capitalize on permissive zoning and a strong workforce population.
