Last Week's Biggest Sales
This week Brooklyn Heights flexed its muscles and blew every other neighborhood out of the water with the 82 State sale. We're wondering if it'll make the top 10 list for '08's priciest residential deals in Brooklyn.
1. BROOKLYN HEIGHTS $6,300,000

3. DUMBO $1,865,000

Another big closing at J Condo. Deed recorded 3/24.
4. PARK SLOPE $1,800,000

I'm quite sure that 82 State sold in Fall '05 for 5 mil. Not a bad flip.

There is no recession here.

82 State Street last prior sale was in 1991. It's no flip 12:22. How sure can you be when you are wrong.

Sorry 12:22 but a one-second visit to ACRIS proves you wrong - no flip here

I'm glad to see the Vermeil condos closing for healthy prices. I think the building is quite nicely designed and it looks well constructed.
I walked by last night and they are doing an excellent job on the brownstone restoration of the 7th Avenue side of this building.
It is welcoming from the street level and is a nice to see a corner with such a terrible history come alive again.

Could you imagine how expensive Brooklyn Heights would be if it were really nice? and if it had parking? Incredible!

the bar has been raised!
Renters pull the splinters from your butt cheeks and get yours!

Could you imagine how expensive Park Slope would be it it weren't full of posters like 12:51? Incredible!

These neighborhoods are inconvenient for all except the towncar crowd, it is difficult to keep a car in these congested neighborhoods. Poor people take buses and subways, but I'll be damned if I do. Brooklyn sucks. I gave it a shot, but it is subway-peasant-ville. You idiots should give America a try, life is soooo much nicer there.
Bye-bye

I'm not sure if the Vermeil is that well built. I looked at it closely while work has progressed all along.
One thing people haven't seemed to notice: the cornice as built does not match the orig. drawings.
At least it is better than the building across the street which is very new and has calcium blooms on the brownstoning layer of (overly dark) cement.

The Vermeil is ugly from the outside. No curb appeal whatsoever. Don't know if it will improve. Shocked they got such high prices.

So, where is the recession?
Posted by: guest at April 1, 2008 7:59 PM
Hon, trust me, the recession is coming.

Recession's NYC tour got canceled.
Posted by: guest at April 1, 2008 10:36 PM
But not the Greater Depression NYC tour. That show will go on. Price the above sales in gold. Ouch!

6:47 - it all depends on your definition of "convenient." Plenty of non-poor (and quite well off) people find taking the subway far more convenient than living elsewhere in America and spending much of one's time in a car sitting in traffic.
