While most signs point to a fairly strong market for townhouses in the more desirable neighborhoods of Brownstone Brooklyn, one property in Park Slope just took a 20 percent price cut after failing to attract interest at its initial asking price of $2,500,000. When we wrote about 87 Garfield Place back in June, we thought it looked best-suited to a condo conversion because of its unusually large floorplates. Before someone with some kind of vested interest chimed in multiple times in the comments section, several readers expressed negative views about both the price and layout. Seems the cynics were right. We’ll see whether the new price of $1,990,000 stimulates more interest.
