House of the Day: 491 3rd Street
At least we know where I. M. Pei stands on the recessed-lighting issue! At some point, the famed architect designed the upper duplex of this four-story brick house at 491 3rd Street in Park Slope. (The lower two floors are floor-through apartments.) The design is nice enough, but other than the archway, there aren’t a lot of strong statements going on as far as we can tell. According to the listing, the two lower floor-through apartments have retained their historic details and will be delivered vacant. Given the location, the asking price of $2,795,000 probably isn’t too far off the market. The first open house is on Sunday from 12:30 to 2 p.m.
