Closing Bell: 4th Avenue Condo Close to Selling Out
The Crest, the 4th Avenue condo on 2nd Street, is apparently 90 percent sold and ready for move-ins. The sign above is taped to the outside of the building, and a local entrepreneur has put up his own sign next to the Crest’s, in a bid, perhaps, to do business with the building’s new residents….

The sign above is taped to the outside of the building, and a local entrepreneur has put up his own sign next to the Crest’s, in a bid, perhaps, to do business with the building’s new residents. StreetEasy shows eight active listings left at the condo that go from $559,000 (734-sf 1-bed) to $738,000 (985-sf 2-bed). GMAP
They already have bedbugs?
Oh, snap! But I do have to wonder where one would keep anything other than a modest wardrobe looking at the floorplan (not that I can discern the actual closet space, just the number of closets). Where would one store a bicycle for instance? Perhaps in the parking space alloted to the unit? It might be cheaper to buy the adjoining apartment and use it for storage, given the price of parking spaces these days.
Zing!
“U-haul needs to build 10 more stories on top of its existing 4th Ave warehouse space to accommodate all these new closetless condo buyers”
Or maybe you can stop filling your life with crap and buy fewer, nicer quality things.
How many closets do you really need?? Big sale at Walmart this weekend?
U-haul needs to build 10 more stories on top of its existing 4th Ave warehouse space to accommodate all these new closetless condo buyers! They could paint a tromp l’oeil image of what a real luxury building ought to look like on the blank wall space.
4:49, perhaps there are only 3.33 apartments?
Why can I only find three recorded sales for this building on property shark and streeteasy? Not going to officially call BS on their broker’s classy little signage, but busy open houses and a small number of active listings do not necessarily mean closed sales and move-ins.
These Condos don’t have enough closet space. Master bedroom closets are a joke. For a couple, that’s not enough room.
We’re an average couple in a two bedroom and I have 2 closets in my entry (one for coats, one for shoes, umberellas, etc.), 2 closets in the hallway by the bedrooms (one with all the linens, one with the vacuum, tools, junk, etc.) and 1 wall to wall in the master bedroom and 1 in the second bedroom, and I still wish I had more closets.
So, what are they thinking in these Condos, where are you going to put everything?
I live on this block and the open house on Sunday was VERY active – quite a frenzy of yuppies congregating at the entrance. And yes, it does look almost ready for move ins.
Out of curiosity I went to one of the first open houses, when it was still a construction site. The apartments were OK – not terrible, but small rooms. I could not figure out for the life of me how you’d place both a dining room table AND a sofa in the living area.
