One might not be able to tell from the street, but the former landmark church on Adelphi Street in Fort Greene is now 12 units of luxury apartments for sale, known as The Abbey.

Developers from Douglas Elliman say they took major efforts to maintain as much of the landmark space and church-centric design as they could, including stained glass displays, 36-foot ceilings in what was the former bell tower, as well as staircases made from the church pews that once held parishioners during service.

"We're leaning right into the church vibes, but making it a brighter, more airy space now - since so much of it already existed. We just had to polish it the right way to make it shine," said developer Jessica Peters, a real estate agent with Douglas Elliman who is working with developers KSR. "We were shocked by just how much natural light we could bring to these spaces.”

The Abbey represents the second major conversion for the space that previously had rental units when it was first changed into housing in 2014.

However, the new space features more premium amenities, larger spaces and more natural lights through vaulted ceilings, arched doorways and bricks from nearby Fort Greene park.

Units inside start at over $1 million and feature multifloor units, as well as studios.

" I can't create this again anywhere, I can't build a new building like this anywhere and that's why we wanted to use this space and respect the history," said developer Ceaser Salama.

News 12 was told two units have already been sold, and the owners are set to move in soon.
