Old Breukelen and new Brooklyn become one in Oosten,
the most exciting new development to arrive on South
Williamsburg’s vibrant waterfront district. In this
stunning building, Dutch architect Piet Boon brings
the elements that have made him an international
design talent to a location reminiscent of his native
Holland. With Oosten, he pays homage to his Dutch
heritage with clean, streamlined elements that
harken back to the history of the neighborhood.
Amenities
are
unlike
anything
offered
in
Williamsburg today, including two lobbies, a large
interior courtyard, a landscaped roof garden,
an indoor pool, and a modern fitness center with
lounge. Harkening back to the history of this
culturally vibrant neighborhood yet thoroughly
modern, Oosten elevates Williamsburg real estate
to a thrilling new level.

Just as the Dutch staked new ground when they established New
Netherland, so is Oosten staking new ground in South Williamsburg.
Purchased by the Dutch East India Company from Native American settlers
in 1638, Williamsburg got its name in the 1800s, when it became a hub
for factories, foundries, and shipyards. In the early 1900s, immigrants
flowed into the neighborhood, and by the 1970s, artists began to settle in
Williamsburg's loft buildings.
Today, South Williamsburg is one of the most culturally exciting
neighborhoods in the entire city. The waterfront district, where Oosten
is situated, enjoys a serene location far from the hustle and bustle of
Bedford Avenue, yet is just one subway stop from Manhattan, seconds
from the East River Ferry and right at the base of the Williamsburg Bridge,
which bikers can take into Lower Manhattan and neighboring areas,
thanks to the abundant bike lanes nearby. Colorful, cultural and the focal
point of Brooklyn’s exciting culinary renaissance, South Williamsburg has
