A Brooklyn Heights brownstone overlooking the Promenade is asking $16,000,000. If 192 Columbia Heights sells for ask, it will set a record, as The New York Times was the first to point out. So far the record for a townhouse in the Heights is 70 Willow Street, where Truman Capote famously rented, which sold for $12,500,000 in 2012.

This place is 25 feet wide, five stories tall and has nearly 8,000 square feet of space. It is in move-in condition.

Now that prices in “emerging” Brooklyn have about doubled in the last few years, do you think prices in prime Brooklyn will recalibrate? What do you guess it will sell for?

  1. At first, the per square foot sounds crazy, but then there’s just 1 variable that makes this different than all the other big beautiful bstones in Bklyn and Manhattan: those views.
    .
    Curious how this compares to some of the other upper end bstones in Manhattan (too lazy to search)
