Maison Bond, a new mixed‑use arrival at 335 Bond Street in Gowanus, Brooklyn, has officially finished construction and is shifting from hard hats to move‑ins. The 14‑story brick building rises at the corner of Carroll and Bond streets just west of the Gowanus Canal, with sidewalk fencing now gone and a fresh batch of rental apartments, commercial space and light‑manufacturing bays landing on a fast‑changing stretch of the neighborhood.
Design and scale
The 155‑foot structure covers roughly 77,383 square feet and delivers 73 rentals in a mix of one‑ and two‑bedroom layouts, along with about 4,644 square feet of manufacturing space and roughly 10,911 square feet of ground‑floor commercial space, according to New York YIMBY. Developed by Rybak Development, which also appears in filings as E & M Realty, the building reports an average apartment size of around 932 square feet, with ceiling heights running from about 9.5 to 11 feet.
Facade and interiors
STUDIO V Architecture, serving as both architect and interior designer, wrapped the tower in a gray brick grid punched with a rhythm of rectangular and arched mullion‑free windows. At street level, a line of tall parabolic arches forms an arcade that nods to the area’s industrial bones. The firm describes the design as a response to Gowanus’s industrial heritage, using sculptural arches, planted courtyards and elevated green space to soften the canal edge, as laid out on STUDIO V’s project page.
Amenities and finishes
Inside, the apartments lean toward polished loft living more than warehouse grit. Homes come with white oak floors, triple‑glazed casement windows, in‑unit LG washers and dryers and Mitsubishi VRF HVAC with acoustic ductwork, with some units offering private outdoor space. Kitchens are outfitted with custom walnut cabinetry, Taj Mahal quartz countertops and integrated appliances, while bathrooms pair porcelain tile with walnut vanities and matte‑black Grohe fixtures, per New York YIMBY. The amenity package includes a lobby, a 30‑foot landscaped inner courtyard, rooftop grilling stations, a sky lounge, a fitness center with an outdoor yoga terrace and coworking space.
Affordable units and leasing
Earlier this year, the building entered the city’s housing lottery with a small set of below‑market homes: 18 income‑restricted units priced for households earning between 40 and 100 percent of AMI, with rents starting at $907 for select one‑bedrooms, according to Brownstoner. On the market‑rate side, leasing has been underway since the winter, with current availabilities posted on portals such as StreetEasy and the project’s marketing platforms.
Environmental cleanup and rezoning
The property went through New York’s Brownfield Cleanup Program before anyone could think about move‑in dates. The remedial plan for the 335 Bond Street site called for excavation, potential groundwater treatment and installation of a sub‑slab depressurization system to address vapor intrusion, based on the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation decision document. That record also sets out engineering and institutional controls along with a site‑management plan intended to protect future residents and guide long‑term monitoring of the property.
Where this fits in Gowanus
Maison Bond is one of many cranes and concrete pours tied to the Gowanus rezoning, joining a lineup of mid‑rise projects and larger complexes that are remaking the canal corridor and nearby side streets. Local market watchers point to a sizable pipeline of new units planned for the area, and the building’s ground‑floor retail and light‑manufacturing spaces are expected to be among the earlier commercial players as new residents arrive, per CityRealty.
Next steps
Model homes are being prepped now, and marketing is led by The Masters Division at Nest Seekers. Active listings and leasing details appear on the building’s dedicated leasing site and major listing portals. For neighbors and would‑be renters, Maison Bond is the latest completed test case for how quickly new tenants, retailers and small manufacturers weave into Gowanus’s evolving streetscape.
