Just Sold! [NY Post]
I saw the Bkln Hghts apartment a couple of months ago – awful. If you like cruise ship cabins, then this apartment was for you.
When you bring up the issue of cars and parking it is like injecting crack into some folks.
Calm down.
Cars are a fact of life. People need them and use them outside of Manhattan.
Brooklyn Heights has a problem with parking.
The subways are great for going to and from Manhattan but sometimes folks need to go further afield.I think that the hassle of tickets and towing etc certainly affect the quality of life in certain neighborhoods and as a result, the price of real estate.
Having no car is fine, it is like being a vegan, God bless you, but don’t blame others for not marching to the same drummer.
PS: Most homeowners in Brooklyn Heights have a car, especially if they have a young family.
12:06 & 1:11–i doubt many people in manhattan or BH use their cars to drive to work in the city. guess what? a lot of people in both areas are well off enough to have second homes and use their cars to get there. i’m not saying that’s good or desirable but to say people near NYC mass transit have no reason for cars assumes people never leave the city or at least not often enough to make renting a car everytime uneconomical.
Here is a link to some interior shots of the PLG House:

While it definitely does not have the details that some of the other houses in PLG have and the ceilings do indeed look low, it is not bad for $675K especially since it is on a historic block. The owner is going to have to put some money into fixing it up, but it is definitely in livable condition as is at the moment. I wonder how large are small the bedrooms are in these type of townhouses.

re: 33 Willow – I too saw it, and followed it for a while. It was just over 1100 sf, in a walk-up yes but on the second floor. Nice but slightly odd renovation, including loads of big build-ins. Not surprised it went for asking, but contrary to an earlier post I think it took a couple of months to get an offer.
the price reflects the high maintenance. 440K on it’s own would have been a STEAL for an 800sf 1 bedroom in the heights. if the maint were in the $600 neighborhood, this place would have sold closer to 600K, is my guess….
Parking??? That’s what you’re looking for in a neighborhood? Allow me to introduce you to all of the poor neighborhoods of NYC — parking galore because very few people can afford a car.
