Why Carroll Gardens Adds Fewer Condos

Carroll Gardens adds far fewer new condos than it used to: about 20 homes a year in plans accepted since 2023, against 51 a year in 2000–07, 61% fewer.

Accepted condo plans. Asking $/sf: the median building's first Schedule A price list.

• As many plans, fewer homes. About 6 plans a year are accepted, as in 2000–07 (5), but the larger buildings are gone: the typical plan has 3 homes, and 63% of recent plans convert an existing building.
• 421-a was never a factor. 0% of plans accepted 2015–22 that name a tax program used it, so its end in June 2022 changed little here.
• Demand hasn't slowed. 69% of buildings whose closings began in 2023 or later sold out within a year (above).

More are on the way: 11 plans filed since 2025 are still under review (below).

Prices Within Carroll Gardens: Near the Park and the Subway

We compared each building's closings with the Carroll Gardens average in the same year, so rising prices don't skew the comparison:

Sponsor closings since 2015, buildings with 2+ of them and 10 homes or fewer. Each sale is compared with Carroll Gardens's average $/sf that year; a row compares the median building inside the area with the median one outside it.

• Carroll Park. Buildings within a block (100 metres) of Carroll Park sell for +12% per square foot against the rest of the neighborhood.
• The subway. Buildings 4 minutes or less from an entrance sell +10%. The Carroll St station sits at the park's corner, so many buildings near one are near the other.
• The southern blocks sell for less. Those closest to Smith-9 Sts, on Luquer, Nelson and Huntington Streets toward the Gowanus Expressway, sell −8%.
