Park Circle Apartments Already on Market

If all these listings at the Park Circle were up when we discussed the development last week, we somehow missed 'em. So we were surprised to see that 14 of the apartments are already in contract, according to the Corcoran site. Most of the apartments are priced in the $450 to $550 a foot range, with the higher floors not surprisingly commanding the premium. Unit #401, for example, is 1,660 square feet and has a maintenance of $541 and an asking price of $785,000. We have to say that the ceilings don't look as low as we had feared based on some comments in last week's thread. It's hard to find apartments this big at this price in Brooklyn. If more services do come to the area, these could end up looking like good deals in a couple of years.

I went to the open house and was very impressed by the apartments. A lot of the floor plans were spacious and the apartments are very attractive. The model unit which is a true 3 bedroom is one of the best floor plans I've seen since I started my search. I loved it and my wife and I are talking to our bank to get things in order. This was a very pleasant surprise.

RE 3:42 PM - you just sound too good to be true! Pleasantly surprised indeed. Why not get things in order. Buy two while you at it.

I really liked the apartments and wanted to share it. What's the big fucking deal. Get over yourselves.

Lower ceilings alone aren't a problem. Many mid-century houses have lower ceilings and are still great design and great to live in. Looking at those homes as inspiration, we know with lower ceilings the windows should have been made huge. And all the interior details ultra modern. In other words, they should not have gone with shaker style wood cabinets. The furniture and decor in the model unit is also bad and a downer.

If the only people who have something nice to say about a development are obvious shills, man, you know the place sucks. It looks like crap in a crappy neighborhood.
