Grammy winner Gordon Chambers has written songs for over 75 recording artists, including Patti LaBelle and Aretha Franklin. Chambers bought his 3,512-square-foot Fort Greene, Brooklyn, brownstone in 2000. “I was lucky to have found the house before prices in Fort Greene got ridiculously sky-high,” said Chambers. The house was built in 1903, and was sold to Chambers with the original structure and decorative detailing intact. "I wanted it to be a place where creative people would come and be inspired," he said.
