Brooklyn

When we were discussing the Greenwood Hill Condos on Tuesday, we epressed surprise at the fact that the entire building was comprised of one-bedroom apartments. Not necessarily what you’d imagine the target demographic of the nabe to be. Turns out that developer is not alone in his thinking. Just down the street, the unfinished Scarano project at 211 23rd Street is made up of eight studios and one bedrooms as well (two are in contract, six are available). The studios are priced in the mid-$400′s and the priciest one bedroom (a first floor and basement duplex) is $889,000. Browsing the listings, one sees frequent use of the word “mezzanine” — no surprise given the architect involved. It may also not be a surprise to see the DOB website shows an active violation on the books since November 30 of last year. Anyone know what it’s for? We’re sure the locals will be able to fill us in on how this construction process has gone as well.
