Very late on commenting but as a transplant from Chicago to New York almost 17 years ago, you couldn't pay me to live in Manhattan. I enjoy walking out of my door and seeing trees and grass and hearing birds chirp. Manhattan is a concrete jungle while Brooklyn has a real neighborhood feel. When I moved to New York, my plan was to live in Brooklyn. Brooklyn was, is and will always be hot.

Prewar landmark? I understand embellishing the truth but that's an all out lie. Or have they change prewar to mean built before the war in Iraq?

Those attached homes are I do believe 1940s/50s construction. They are pretty similar to townhouses for lack of a better comparison. They have one or two levels and a garage underneath. The semi attached are the same concept but they are only attached on one side.
