Kendrick
Lamar
is
coming
to
Brooklyn.
This
time,
as
a
resident
with
a
new
pricey
penthouse
acquisition
in
one
of
the
borough’s
most
attractive
neighborhoods.
According
to
reports,
Kendrick
Lamar
is
making
a
home
in
Brooklyn
in
a
dazzling
new
penthouse
on
the
waterfront
of
the
borough.
The
Grammy
Award
winner
is
the
latest
resident
of
the
Pierhouse
at
Brooklyn
Bridge
Park,
a
luxury
condominium
development
at
90
Furman
Street
just
blocks
from
the
iconic
bridge.
The
unit
was
reportedly
purchased
through
a
limited
liability
company
entitled
Dogg
Pound
Buildings
for
$8.6
million,
and
the
deal
to
close
was
agreed
upon
earlier
this
month.
The
artist
also
owns
properties
in
his
native
California.
The
new
condo
is
one
of
106
units
in
the
Pierhouse,
which
was
built
in
2015
and
spans
two
buildings.
The
pied-à-terre
Kendrick
Lamar
has
purchased
has
four
bedrooms
throughout
its
three
levels.
The
space
also
has
a
private
rooftop
with
clear
views
of
Brooklyn
Bridge
Park
and
the
East
River
as
part
of
the
unit’s
2,000
square
feet
of
outdoor
space.
Designed
by
Marvel
Architects,
the
complex
also
allows
residents
to
enjoy
the
amenities
of
the
1
Hotel
Brooklyn
Bridge,
which
includes
access
to
the
elite
Bamford
Wellness
Spa
chain.
Kendrick
Lamar’s
acquisition
marks
the
end
of
a
months-long
search
by
the
“Money
Trees”
rapper.
It
was
first
reported
that
he
was
touring
the
highly
popular
Brooklyn
Heights
neighborhood
in
August
by
the
New
York
Post,
which
stated
that
he
checked
out
the
Quay
Towers
nearby
and
the
Olympia
condominium
complex
in
the
Dumbo
area.
He’s
now
part
of
a
dazzling
list
of
celebrities
who
have
decided
to
make
Brooklyn
home
including
Zendaya,
Matt
Damon,
along
with
Emily
Blunt
and
John
Krasinski,
but
he’s
been
a
recurring
fixture
in
the
borough
–
he
chose
an
intimate
venue
for
a
surprise
pop-up
show
after
his
Barclays
Center
concert
last
year.
