Park Slope’s massive new 595 Dean tower started leasing $4,800-a-month co-living suites this week, with residents getting access to a working rooftop farm and sweeping Brooklyn views.

Gotham Organization officially opened applications Monday for its new co-living suites at 595 Dean Street, a 29-story glass tower rising above Atlantic Yards. Tenants pay $4,800 a month for furnished private bedrooms with ensuite baths, while sharing a kitchen and living room with two or three other renters. Renters get all utilities, WiFi, weekly cleanings, and access to a 12,000-square-foot rooftop farm in the deal.

According to Gotham Organization spokesperson Emily Rice, the building’s 50 co-living suites cater to “young professionals and out-of-towners looking for an instant Brooklyn life.” 595 Dean’s rooftop farm, managed by Brooklyn Grange, produces veggies and herbs for residents and an on-site café. Current listings show move-ins are available starting this week, with at least a dozen suites already claimed.

The project sits steps from Barclays Center and Atlantic Avenue’s 2/3/4/5/B/D/Q/N/R lines, an address that’s drawn interest from remote workers priced out of Manhattan. The building also offers a gym, 60-foot pool, coworking lounges, and pet run. Gotham Organization says 595 Dean will ultimately include 798 market-rate and affordable units; the co-living option is part of a push to build community and cut the loneliness of solo renting.

Park Slope native Kayla Mendel, 28, who toured the building Tuesday, told NYC Pulse: “The price is steep, but the rooftop farm actually sealed it for me. I wanted roommates and a real sense of place — not just a sterile box.”
