Cannavale Byrne Boerum Hill

More celebrities are migrating to Brooklyn from Manhattan. Actors Rose Byrne and Bobby Cannavale, who had been living in the East Village, paid $2,150,000 earlier this month for a two-family, three-bedroom townhouse at 453 Warren Street in Boerum Hill. The couple starred together in the 2014 remake of Annie.

Byrne and Cannavale’s new pad has both front and rear gardens, and a fireplace. The listing also advertises that the garden-level full-floor apartment could potentially be used as a commercial space, although with Cannavale set to star in HBO’s forthcoming series Vinyl and Byrne tied to the X-Men franchise, it seems unlikely that they’ll need the extra income from a ground-floor dentist.

  1. In my original comment on the Norah Jones article (reposted here) I acknowledged that Brownstoner was not the first to break the news. However, I agree with jobklyn – two wrongs don’t make a right.

    (repost:) I know this might come off as a buzzkill, but I am concerned about Brownstoner’s regular practice of publishing the private addresses of public figures on the internet, especially in cases of single-family houses. Sure, we all know where De Blasio lives, but I am pretty sure he has some decent security set up. And yes, it was no secret that Anne Hathaway bought that Clocktower apartment, but that was a large doorman building, with, again some security as deterrent to intruders. And yes, obviously I am aware that the New York Daily News already leaked this first. All that said, I wish Brownstoner wouldn’t participate in this. Sure, it’s interesting. Celeb-spotting is fun, and that is one gorgeous house. But as a fellow music-industry figure (who deals, from time to time, with scary stalker situations) I don’t think it’s fair that Ms Jones’ private residence should be so easily located, especially when she has gone to some lengths to keep it private. If I were her, I would feel less safe knowing that everyone reading Brownstoner and The New York Daily News knows where to find her now (sure, the readership of the NYDN is a larger concern, but anyone else who republishes the info is complicit.) As a female performer (of drastically lesser fame!) I cringed with sympathetic anxiety when I read this. I realize the policy will most likely remain unchanged, but I felt compelled to put this out there as something to think about.

    (Before I’m busted on this, I think it is configured as a two-unit home, but I was guessing that she might live in it as a single family… though with the way the music industry is tanking for performers, mama’s probably going to need the rent!)
