Edelkopf said, “The Bushwick area by the Jefferson Street L train has exploded within the last couple of years. We are now seeing institutional and foreign players investing within the neighborhood. The residential rents are now stable and we are now seeing the retail rents follow.”

444 Melrose St. offers the opportunity of free market value retail and residential income. The property is located at the corner of Melrose St. and Irving Ave., in the Bushwick neighborhood, with 100 s/f of frontage along Irving Ave. and one block from the Jefferson St. (L) train station.

With Williamsburg becoming one of the most expensive neighborhoods in the city, Bushwick has undergone an investment and development process over the last few years, particularly around the Jefferson St. (L) train station. With new retail shops, restaurants and nightlife areas continuously opening up around the neighborhood, Bushwick has become one of the most desirable areas of the borough.
