Our connection to the community is equally important. We’ve created a custom Gowanus Wharf App designed to bring what matters most to your fingertips. On the app, access your complimentary Brooklyn Museum membership, join interest-based community groups, create and attend local events, reserve amenities, open your apartment, sign up for fitness classes, meet your dog concierge, and much more.

In a city where change is the constant and the constant moves at hyperspeed, development doesn’t need to be a dirty word. Our mission is to activate a residential and retail experience that is an authentic expression of our locale. That catalyzes community, culture, and sets a new standard for city living.

Gowanus Wharf is designed to achieve the perfect balance of art and commerce, nature and digital integration, and legacy and transformation. A tribute to the enduring spirit of Brooklyn, The Wharf is a stage built for residents, retailers, and visitors to pursue their living ideal. From a place of balance, the most important things in life come into focus.
