The Brooklyn High-Rise That Gives Tenants an Allowance
Briefly

Brooklyn Crossing in Prospect Heights has introduced a unique tenant incentive program called 'Neighborly Events,' where tenants can receive Visa gift cards to partially reimburse social gatherings as long as they share their experiences online. This program is part of a broader trend among luxury rental properties to foster community connections through organized events and perks, such as a rooftop pool and a large fitness center. However, this approach may straddle the line between fostering authentic connections and executing a marketing strategy, revealing a complex relationship between tenants and developers.
Brodsky's Neighborly Events programming incentivizes tenant interaction with Visa gift cards, promoting community connections while capturing marketing content—a novel twist in luxury rental perks.
The awkward balance of forced fun and genuine interaction is highlighted as developers offer reimbursements for social gatherings, hinting at a need for community in expensive living.
