I'm definitely interested and think this may work for my space, but have a few questions and may need to see a few more pictures.
Can you please contact me at ben(at)brooklynunderground(dot)org
thanks!

If that's the centerpiece of your apartment, I'd hate to see the rest of it.

I could not find this type of door when I needed one for my soho loft. Mine cost 3g to build from scratch. I would post it on Craig's list too because Manhattaites might be more interested in this type of door than Brooklynites.
Maybe dont post a price or call it DUMBO history and you may get some more bites because these are hard to come by. :)

I find it sad that people like jcarch and mod squad and quest poster are even on this site. Isn't the point of this site to restore and reclaim the beauty of brooklyn architecture? People like these who want to destroy, cut up, tear down etc are the antithesis of what this forum is about....if you don't have anything constructive to say then keep quiet and get a life.

FWIW one of the nicest design elements at Journey, a beautiful store in DUMBO, is a similar door that has been given an attractive finish.

It's called critising for sport. One day I would love to walk through one of their homes and point out everything I found ugly. The day they are as critical to their friends and family is the day I will respect them.
