hi Cgar, i did see the beautiful house in the DP thread. There are lots of gorgeous houses in DP!
“and the Sunset Park price seems high too…no? Although admittedly I’m not well versed on housing prices in Sunset Park.”
The Sunset Park price is high, however it is very likely going to be torn down by a Chinese developer and 12-story tower built in its place (it is detached). The new Sunset Park zoning regulations and height limits exempt 60th Street unfortunately.
Ooh I like that idea.
I think their should be an option on the widget which will record your answer under your screen name and then there could be a competition to see who the most accurate in forcasting prices.
Stevie, did you see the beautiful house on the front of the Ditmas Park thread yesterday? I love the houses in DP. It’s a neighborhood I’d seriously consider.
i am not yet, but would like to be one day, if I can still afford it. Are you in DP already?
stevieb, you’re in DP?
you should chat with DitmasSnark, then…he seems to really like it and he used to be in PS.
i was originally looking for a condo. But I did not know about DP then and I now think it holds a lot of potential.
