BROOKLYN HEIGHTS — Condos in the historic Brooklyn Trust Company Building have hit the market, the developer announced this week.

Stahl Organization, the developer of the building at 138 Pierrepont St., is converting the upper floors of the six-story property into 12 townhouse-style condominiums.

The homes, which went up for sale this week, are priced from about $3.35 million to $4.2 million, according to a statement from the developer.

The two- to five-bedroom condos range from 2,200 square feet to 3,100 square feet, according to the statement.

The Chase Bank branch that shares the building will continue to operate there, the developer said.

The Brooklyn Trust Company Building opened in 1916, according to the New York Times. A spokesman for the developer said construction would be completed in August. 

The building was designated a landmark in 1996. It was modeled after the "palazzo” of the 16th century Italian High Renaissance, according to the Historic Districts Council, an advocacy group for the city’s historic neighborhoods.

The renovated rooms will feature high ceilings, skylights and oversized windows. There will also be a number of building amenities, including a private music room, communal spaces dedicated to teens and children, a fitness center, an outdoor roof deck with a barbecue area and a pet spa.
