The leasing comes after an affordable housing lottery was launched in October 2024 for 150 of the units. Thousands of applications were submitted for that lottery, which was meant for people earning 130% of the area median income.

“From the wide variety of retailers in Jasper’s ground floor to the lush outdoor courtyards on its rooftops, every detail at Jasper has been meticulously curated to offer a unique, holistic living experience for its residents,” Domain Companies Co-CEO Matt Schwartz said. “The launch of residential leasing is an important milestone for Jasper, and we are excited to take another step toward welcoming tenants into this project that we have designed with a vibrant residential community in mind.”

Each residence will feature quartz countertops and backsplashes, solar shades, an integrated dishwasher, a washer and dryer and a Level Smart Home System. Select units will also have a quartz waterfall-edge kitchen island, a private terrace, a customized closet buildout and window treatments for privacy. There is also an exclusive selection of units called “The Collection,” which have motorized shades, dimmer switches, enhanced lighting and upgraded tile finishes.

Jasper will be pursuing a Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) platinum certification, which the United States Green Building Council gives out to projects that are found to meet the highest standards of a green and environmentally friendly building, demonstrating the importance of environmental, social and governance initiatives.

The development is also looking to participate in the New York State Brownfield Cleanup Program, which encourages private-sector cleanups of brownfields and promotes their redevelopment to help revitalize economically blighted communities.

Retail space takes up 33,000 square feet of the building’s ground floor. The commercial real estate firm Igloo has already brokered space for multiple retail tenants, including the Dumbo Market grocery store, the early childhood development center Bright Start, the facial membership studio Glowbar, the sushi restaurant Matsuzuki Sakura, Tiger J. Taekwondo, Club Pilates and Frankie’s Brooklyn Pizza.

Jasper is close to multiple transportation hubs, including the Vernon Blvd/Jackson Ave subway station.
