One Sunset Launches Leasing in Brooklyn’s Sunset Park
Developers Ailanthus, BEB Capital, and SK Development have officially launched leasing at the Sunset Park project. Move-ins are expected to begin this quarter with Corcoran New Development leading the leasing process.
The One Sunset property spans 193,000 square feet with its location at 201 25th Street in Brooklyn’s Greenwood Heights/Sunset Park region. Tenants can start applying for modern one-, two-, and three-bedroom residences. The building also includes 6,200 square feet of ground-floor retail and amenities such as multiple rooftop terraces with harbor and skyline views.
“One Sunset is a standout offering that delivers a much-needed mixed-income, community-oriented housing offering to the community, and we are thrilled to launch our leasing efforts,” said Bert E. Brodsky, Executive Chairman of BEB Capital. “We look forward to welcoming residents to their new homes over the coming months and advancing the project to its final completion alongside all project partners involved.”
Thoughtful Design and Amenities
Designed by dencityworks | architecture with interiors by Alchemy Studio, One Sunset draws inspiration from the surrounding Sunset Park streetscape. The lower floors of the mixed-income property resemble the brick and terracotta hues of surrounding buildings. The upper floors introduce contrasting glass elements designed to help preserve neighborhood sightlines.
The residences feature open floorplans, oversized custom windows, individually controlled heating and cooling, and stackable Beko washers and dryers. Kitchens in the living units of One Sunset include white Caesarstone countertops, stainless-steel appliances from Beko, and Shaker cabinetry.
Bathrooms at the mixed-income residences feature porcelain tile flooring and teal porcelain wet walls. Additional features include illuminated medicine cabinets, stainless-steel Kohler fixtures, and custom oak vanities with quartz countertops.
Retail Space and Transit Access
Beyond the residential component, One Sunset also includes 6,200 square feet of ground-floor retail space.
One Sunset developers have signed a Community Benefits Agreement (CBA) with area community-based organizations, including Fifth Avenue Committee (FAC). The agreement is intended to maintain the long-term benefits for the Brooklyn neighborhood, including local jobs, green infrastructure enhancements, and M/WBE contracting.
Located on 25th Street directly adjacent to an R train subway station, One Sunset offers convenient transit access. In addition, the location offers proximity to highly sought-after open spaces, restaurants, shopping spots, and art galleries.

SK Development is a 20-year-old, father-son partnership between Abe and Scott Shnay. The firm’s portfolio includes more than 20 development projects across New York City, Queens, the Hudson Valley, and Montauk.
“It’s not design by committee,” explains Scott Shnay. “The committee selects the architect, then we trust the architect to design, the same way we trust the contractor to build, and the marketing team to sell or lease in their respective roles.”
Abe Shnay says, “Having worked with my father before, our partnership’s strength consists of being a like-minded family company that shares multi-generational experience and a long-term vision.”
Through the years, SK Development has completed some noteworthy boutique development projects in New York. 40 Gansevoort Street, home to the fashion house Theory and designed by Morris Adjmi, is an example of the same.

As leasing gets underway, future residents can expect thoughtfully designed apartments, expansive rooftop views, and a community-focused living experience.
