Co-op of the Day: 423 Atlantic Avenue, #2M
This 1,500-square-foot (we’re guessing) loft at 423 Atlantic Avenue in Boerum Hill just hit the market this week. It looks to us like the three-bedroom co-op has a great sense of space and nice wall of windows. Given that this stretch of Atlantic is not as gentrified as the blocks closer to Smith and Bond,…
This 1,500-square-foot (we’re guessing) loft at 423 Atlantic Avenue in Boerum Hill just hit the market this week. It looks to us like the three-bedroom co-op has a great sense of space and nice wall of windows. Given that this stretch of Atlantic is not as gentrified as the blocks closer to Smith and Bond, the asking price of $1,300,000 seems a little aggressive on a per-square-foot basis. The first open house is this Sunday from 12 to 2 p.m.

Petebklyn, my point was to point out the irony of people criticizing this building’s level of gentrification when in fact it is one of the very reasons the neighborhood is gentrified at all. I was not aware that the co-op went back as far as the seventies. As for your remark about the neighborhood attracting people as far back as the 1870s, I am also well aware of that and your sarcasm is unnecessary You’re not the only one who knows about Brooklyn and its history who reads these blogs.
This same agent had a unit in the same line for sale on a higher floor with better finishes for sale 3 years ago for 899k. We looked at it, and it’s a great building and unit, but to be asking 400k more during this current climate for a lower floor seems pretty unrealistic.
sam, that’s hilarious and very sweet (sweet referring to your reading to your grand daughter and her reaction to your laughter). Thanks for sharing it. I consider myself a decent driver and not so much of a klutz and I think blowing up planets into smithereens is much more up The What’s alley!
The lips balloon as the brain shrinks and the asking price inflates, it’s chain reaction. Absurd. Living on Atlantic and paying 1.3 and the 1,300 monthly?! Got to go pump something.
Calvin, of the comic strip Calvin and Hobbes (Hobbes is a stuffed tiger that is real in the little boy’s imagination) often daydreams, especially in school, one of his alter-egos is BIFF CHAMPION space explorer. Biff’s forte is crashing his space ship or somehow blowing up planets into smithereens. He’s a bit of a space klutz.
I was reading to my grand daughter and I came across that, I laughed and laughed, and she said, grandpa, it’s not that funny…..
think they bagged the elk in Prospect Park Zoo?
Biff, it is a special block as is Willow Place.
Give my best to Calvin and Hobbes.
sam, I think it’s harder than that to get rid of him for good. Insulting Montrose Morris repeatedly over the past two days is a sure indication he’s lost it. By the way, I’m going to stroll along Joralemon (west of Hicks) again this weekend. Your comments the other day prompted me to want to revisit it and appreciate the homes there.
Biff,
Witty as always.
The other night I accused “The What II”, or whatever, of being an “asshat extraordinaire” – I really like that pairing- anyway, we haven’t heard from him since. Do you think I insulted his tender sensibilities?
