Condo of the Day: Sevenberry

I wish the joints were concealed. They kind of ruin the facade.

Why are there so many projects with these tiny operable windows? Do people actually like these or just don't care?

it's not like williamsburg is known for fresh air...

Badumpum psssshhhhh!

Posted by: guest at November 6, 2007 1:49 PM

Yes, what is up with those windows? What's wrong with some double-hungs?

Posted by: guest at November 6, 2007 1:50 PM

uhhh...yes, yes you are.

over supply is never going to happen unless NYC tanks for several years in a row.

there is still an underlying housing shortage.

prime williamsburg is convenient and fun and given the A's and B's that the burg/greenpoint schools just received, it will continue to be priced really well for young families.

there are really well priced 2 bedrms in williamsburg, and many prefer new apts that don't need any renovations and come w/ A/C, laundry and new baths and kitchens.

agree that williamsburg is very attractive for newly married couples or families with kids right now.

live in the area see more and more kids everyday.

so basically it's park slope, except uglier.

and no park.

Posted by: guest at November 6, 2007 10:47 PM

bingo.

Posted by: guest at November 7, 2007 12:51 AM

no its not park slope - you can actually park you car without driving around the block for 3 hours.

No park? what are you dumb? how about McCarren just a couple of blocks away from this location? Hmmm, childrens' playground, soccer field, baseball field, new running track, tennis courts, pool that's about to get a 50 million dollar renovation, green grocer every saturday. YES if only Williamsburg had a park!

oh yeah, and it's about 30 minutes or more closer to midtown too...

good luck keeping up those bogus prices in park slope with the overcrowded over hyped 321.

Just wait a few more years and it will be just like park slope with all those strollers

Williamsburg and Greenpoint are so white. I am so happy I don't live there.

Not that size counts, but here's a couple of fun factoids from the NYC Department of Parks & Recreation:

McCarren Park: 35.71 acres
Prospect Park: 526.25 acres

you might want to check your fun factoids as to the chances of being stabbed or mugged in Prospect park vs McCarren

5.43 - we're happy about that too.

Posted by: guest at November 8, 2007 1:43 PM

!:43 - Precinct crime reports don't support any claims you might be making, FWIW.

I have to disagree with some of these comments after seeing the development this past weekend. The work was nicely done, and the apartments have thoughtful lay-outs. Plus, twenty-seven units is a nice alternative to the mega-developments going in near the water.

Will there be a Pinkberry opening downstairs? Sorry couldn't resist.
