50 Bayard Street "The Ikon"

50 Bayard is a 9 story, 58 unit condominium building that faces McCarren Park in Williamsburg. The building was designed in 2006 by Karl Fischer Architect and is part of "Fischer Row" aka "Hot Karl Row" on Bayard Ave. The building features a concierge (fancy doorman), rooftop deck, storage, fitness room, garage, and bike room.

Most interesting about the building are the 4 penthouse units that are stacked on top of one another atop of the main building. In the picture above, you can see them as part of the smaller silver portion of the building. Also above is the floor plan of one of the penthouses. Being all glass, light and views are certainly not a problem.

For everyone else in the building, the amenities offered are more than most for the area (eg: parking), and the proximity to the park is certainly a perk. The L train is 5 blocks away and there is a farmers market every weekend just a block away on Union Ave.
