Well, here’s something you don’t see every day. This “preconstruction” four-family flip with no photos of the actual interior — “pictures shown for finishes only” — is located in Bed Stuy and priced at $2,400,000. The seller proposes to equip it with central air, stainless steel appliances, and quartz counters and create three floor-through rentals under an owner’s duplex. That’s only possible, of course, if the house has five stories, which the listing says it does, although the photo shows only four, including the hidden story on the top. PropertyShark says it has three. (PropertyShark also says it’s a two-family, not a four.) In any case, is the market really moving this fast?

This makes the “must be seen to be believed” Elliman listing on Brooklyn Avenue look better and better, which I’m increasingly believing it may be: http://www.elliman.com/new-york-city/100-brooklyn-avenue-brooklyn-vebwerp
I actually like the 16 footers – no bearing walls or buttress walls on the interior to break the space up, so the full floor plates are open on the living floors, and 16 foot wide bedrooms always feel huge to me (that’s just me – I always thing those silly “extra” rooms that are usually the third or fourth room on a floor in an 18 or 20 footer are just wastes of space).
They can shove it up their quartz.
