Co-op Close-Up: 25 Joralemon Street
Despite being located in a building whose name sounds more like a gay bar than a residence (Pumphouse? Come on), this BHS listing at 25 Joralemon Street looks interesting. Though perhaps too close to the BQE for some, we suspect the sheer size and openness of the apartment–a relatively hard thing to find in Brooklyn…
Despite being located in a building whose name sounds more like a gay bar than a residence (Pumphouse? Come on), this BHS listing at 25 Joralemon Street looks interesting. Though perhaps too close to the BQE for some, we suspect the sheer size and openness of the apartment–a relatively hard thing to find in Brooklyn Heights–will be attractive to others. We’re gonna need some input on the valuation as we’re just starting to pay more attention to apartment prices ourselves. How does $700 a foot strike people for this location and type of apartment. At only about 60 cents a square foot, the maintenance seems reasonable at least. What’s the history of this building? Anyone know when it was converted to co-ops? There’ll be an open house on Sunday from 2:30 to 4:30.

Over a million for constant exhaust pollution? I don’t care how nice a space is I would never raise my children that close to a highway.
What’s wrong with a little edgy humor?
The Pumphouse sounds pretty gay to me.
I prefer the name Pimphouse. Pimphouse evokes “bling bling” and everybody wants that!
THe descrip says a ‘double sized’ shower upstairs.
Sigh. Please check your sense of humor. And I think the Pumphouse is the name of a gay bar in Albany – oh wait, that’s the Power House. Sorry.
How loud can you say ASTHMA when you finish going up the stairs to this place. The pollution from the BQE will literally be a killer.
Pumphouse does not sound gay at all to me. What an off-handed comment. It’s historical. That’s the reference and the first thing I thought of.
I went to the open house a few weeks back. The space is pretty nice, but the home office is only accessible from a ladder. The 2nd floor does have a bathroom, but no shower/bathtub. The place was a bit dark, but the apt seemed peaceful as there was no noise from the BQE.
Wow! Nice contrast of extremes, Anon! While you’re at it, don’t forget to mention the marching band, loud music and dancing pandas!! Ha!
converted to co-ops in early 80s? it was a long time ago
