Today’s submission comes from Park Slope. The garden has been a work-in-progress since 2001. When the current owners bought the house it had a huge pine tree and some grass in a raised square bed with concrete walkways surrounding the raised bed. “It was all very awkward,” writes the owner. The “before” photo at the end of the slideshow shows the garden after all the concrete had been removed. The beautiful circular table they purchased four years ended up not fitting through the front door so they ended up having to hoist it over the roof! The chairs were picked up at the Park Slope flea market. Other than that, you can tell that they are big clematis fans. Great job.

  1. Thanks 11:39 – we’ve put a lot of hours into this garden. That tree above the table is a Magnolia which is spectacular in the Spring and we also have some mature rose bushes which I don’t have any pictures of. I submitted a whole bunch more pics which Stoner didn’t post.

  2. brooklynnative has been nothing but respectful and intelligent in his posts, from what i’ve seen. he also stays on topic and doesn’t flirt with married men named biff on a public website about real estate.

    i wish the same could be said of you, dave.

  3. believe it or not, YOU don’t run this website, dave. no one cares what you think is shameful or not. and no one said it wasn’t ok to MENTION that the apt. might be for rent in a few months. you don’t make the rules for brownstoner.com

    the garden is gorgeous. so shut your face.

  4. Dave this is clearly the nicest posting yet so I don’t think it’s just a shameless ad. You clearly don’t know a thing about shame. You should be ashamed of the fact that you impose on all of us your endless 6th grade boyish interactions with biff and jerri. Don’t you people have phones? Take your childish behavior off the blog and interact in person. This is not a chat room for losers who are afraid to see how ugly there cyber friends are, it;s a real estate blog. This backyard is relevant, your drivel is not.

  5. I like the garden….OK 11:35…There’s nothing mean or nasty going on. It’s the ridiculous rent classified he throws in. Brownstoner takes real estate agent posts off when they pop up in The Forum, why should it occur here???

  6. You disgust me, Dave.

    Your post at 11:29 is downright mean and nasty.

    You have shown your true colors.

    No wonder your lover doesn’t live in the same city as you. I couldn’t stand to be near such a hateful person either 7 days a week.

  7. Nothing to do before heading out to lunch that’s why 11:28.

    Glad I riled you up…have a discussion about it tonight with your bf or gf, get into an arguement and then get nothing!!!

    Otherwise add something to the thread you jack@ss

  8. Paranoid about what?? As far as submitting your garden and THEN posting the For Rent ad…that’s what’s shameful.

    Is the price so high because you don’t get any rent for the unit above with the soon-to-be-leaking illegal washer???

    Don’t come at me when you so blatantly abuse the site for a rental post and show everyone how spineless you are in dealing with your rent controlled tenant.
