The owner of 219 Washington Avenue in Clinton Hill has been trying to sell for over a year now, tweaking the price a number of times in the process to no avail. It started at $2,275,000 at the beginning of May 2007, getting bumped to $2,375,000 and then $2,395,000 within the first week; by the end of the month, the listing had been pulled, according to StreetEasy. It reemerged with Corcoran again in February at a pie-in-the-sky $2,835,000 in February of this year, before getting knocked back down to $2,495,000 in March. Later in the spring, it was pulled again. Brown Harris Stevens brought it back to market last week at $2,495,000. Seems to us that you gotta have a fifth story to get this price on Washington Avenue in this market, but we could be wrong.
