Checking in on the Argyle
This summer the sales team for the Argyle, the 60-unit condo on 7th Street and 4th Avenue, touted that the building was “above 70 percent sold.” So far, however, there have only been 31 unit closings in the building, plus a bunch of parking spot sales.

This summer the sales team for the Argyle, the 60-unit condo on 7th Street and 4th Avenue, touted that the building was “above 70 percent sold.” So far, however, there have only been 31 unit closings in the building, plus a bunch of parking spot sales. Meanwhile, 10 condos in the building are currently on the market, according to StreetEasy. Move-ins began in June, and at around the same time prices were raised (?!) a bit on a couple of pads. As it stands, asks are ranging from $459,000 for a 646-sf, 1-bedroom to $965,000 for a 1,239-sf, 3-bedroom.

Once again, shitty layouts.
The one bedrooms really look like a Kitchen and a Bedroom, I just can’t figure out how to place furniture in these horrible layouts. I think I could put a table and 4 chairs, but then where is the Living Room????
OH, that is the Living Room?????
Do these architects buy their degrees at Acme School of design??????
I like the 9th street bodega better.
the guy behind the counter at the deli on 9th and 4the ave always is giving his crazy customers advice.
Maybe you should ask him about the Argyle.
Poured concrete it is, covered in Styrofoam and stucco. 11217 you are indeed in Park Slope or Boreum Hill or Prospect Heights my apologies all around. When I lived on Lincoln and 7th I thought it was 11215, no wonder I never got mail. The Argyle with that big prow of a window on 7th st. looks like a cruise ship. There is not one good looking high rise on 4th Ave.
You people crack me up.
11217 is right. The walls are poured concrete.
See for yourself.

Was there at a few weeks ago for the open house as well. I think everything is similar enough to most new construction around, decent enough area. The biggest problem is the price is way TOO HIGH. Asking price should be about 20% less (imo), especially with the high CC.
well, the difference between 4th ave and another not attractive street is that 4th ave has a lot of traffic and isn’t really quiet or quaint. there are both attractive and unattractive streets in Williamsburg, but most are still neighborhood”y” and most parts have immediate great restaurants and amenities in general. my particular block is actually pretty nice (and wide) and very quiet, and i can walk to get anything within a couple of blocks which was a big selling factor. i lived in PS for years, and was on 4th everyday for the subway, so i know it well. basically, even if 4th ave. got built up with lots of decent stores, restaurants, etc… you’d still have to contend with the traffic, noise, car pollution, etc… if you don’t mind that, it’s fine, but if you do, it’ll be a permanent drawback.
Pay no attention to Grumpy.
He’s clearly named himself after the wrong dwarf.

And here’s a map of 11217 for you…
Last time I checked, Berkeley Place, Lincoln Place, St. John’s Place, Sterling Place, Park Place, Prospect Place, St. Mark’s Place and Bergen Street were all in Park Slope…
