The Williamsburg waterfront has become one of the most desirable locations to live in the city, let alone just Brooklyn. And this view from a new studio apartment listing at the 2 Northside Piers condominium, the first re-sale in its line, explains part of the reason why. In addition to the great glimpse of the East River, there’s the Williamsburg Bridge, Lower Manhattan skyline and the new World Trade Center rising in the distance, and right across the street is the historic Austin Nichols’ warehouse, designed by Cass Gilbert at the start of the 20th Century. The view is pure New York, past, present and future.
