About the building
59 Montgomery Place was built in 1892–93 by William Gubbins on the north side of the block between Eighth Avenue and Prospect Park West. The Romanesque Revival brownstone has a curved masonry bay and an arched entrance; a full-height fourth floor was added later. The property is held by 59 Montgomery Brownstone Corp. and lies within the original Park Slope Historic District. The cooperative has stair access to the upper floors and a garden behind the building. Historic district designation applies to the exterior, including changes to windows, masonry and visible rooftop construction.
Apartment combinations have produced full-floor homes as well as a garden duplex. Upper residences include terrace space; the duplex at the base extends across two levels toward the private garden. Fireplaces and in-unit laundry appear in individual apartments. The different arrangements reflect alterations within an older house, with both horizontal and vertical combinations represented in its resale history. The building is close to the park entrance at the eastern end of Montgomery Place.

What to know if you’re buying
Combined apartments need matching ownership documents. A full-floor home may retain more than one original share allocation or lease designation. The purchase should identify everything that transfers, including garden or terrace rights. Stair access also remains part of the upper-floor purchase here; there is no elevator to offset the climb.

How to read the facts on this page. Items attributed to an offering plan describe the building as it was offered at that filing — unit mix, square footage, the amenity program as planned. They are not a statement about how the building operates today. Tax and compliance figures are sourced separately to current City records and carry their own dates. House rules, staffing and fee policy can change by board resolution without any public filing: treat every policy line here as a starting point for diligence and confirm it with the managing agent. Where this page compares one building or neighborhood to another, that is our analysis of the recorded record — it names the measure, the period and the sample it rests on, and it is an observation about medians rather than a prediction about any particular apartment.
