Here, you'll be able to put your green thumb to the test with an urban garden, supported by a small shed and inspired by an organic apple tree that yields four different types of apples! With a lush lawn and paved patio, this space will become a cherished respite from the hustle and bustle of the city. 687 Leonard is a well-maintained condominium building located just a few minutes from the eclectic restaurants, nightlife venues and shops of both Franklin Street and Bedford Avenue.
