New Development: 46 Lefferts Place

46leffertspl031307.jpg
While we doubt neighbors on the otherwise historic block of Lefferts Place between Grand and St. James are too thrilled about having to look at the new facade at 46 Lefferts Place, the developer should get credit for making the effort to align the facade and roofline with the neighboring brownstones. (While he was at it, we wish he sized the windows similarly.) The developer should also get some credit for bringing the an upscale-ish condo development to the immediate area. Why is this a good thing? Well, it gives young, single people the option of taking a stake in the neighborhood, rather than being forced to rent. And there are a number of apartments that are actually within reach of this demographic: All but one of the condos are priced between $275,000 and $355,000. As you can see from the photo, there were already potential buyers checking our the model apartment yesterday evening.
