what's the going price per square foot in Brooklyn Heights, then?

Posted by: guest at June 16, 2008 1:12 PM

I have no idea if the price is right, but it photographs well. Still, no photo of the bathroom?? Hmmm.

Actually, the shelves aren't even built-in. The view leaves much to be desired. And, the bathroom is fine, but nothing special.

"IMHO" never really caught on. You're stuck in the past.

Wow...nice.

i think the price is very realistic. this is what nice one-bedroom apartments in elevator buildings in brooklyn heights are going for.
this isn't putman avenue you know.

Without a special feature (city view, top floor, etc.) I'd say this is pushing it, but I hope they get it. You do see a lot of mediocre BH 1 beds in the 425-450K range though - just streeteasy 1 beds in BH. Very wide range with the nicer apartments priced over 500K (See Columbia Heights, Willow, 75 Henry (which is a crap building but you can't beat the views from the west face)) compared to 30 & 40 Clinton (not the penthouses) and other post wars with no special features. Even in my building there is at least a 50-100K disparity between north facing (historic garden to full city views depending on the floor) and south (backyard with trees).

you all i'm sure are very saavy about prices in clinton hill or bed stuy, but perhaps less so about brooklyn heights. this is priced right for the heights. it is a nice genteel apartment in a solid building for someone with more than the usual amount of cash and income.

this one will go AND FAST!

I have to say, I've known this building for a long time (native Brooklynite, used to know someone in the bldg in the 1980s) and it has always been extremely nice, very quiet, very genteel. If I were looking in the Heights, I would definitely check this place out just on that basis.
