  1. The Bedford Stuyvesant tour was simply outstanding. I was pleasantly surprised by the neighborhood further out between Ralph and Patchen – the home owners definitely have vision – and that part of the Bed Stuy felt great. The Stuyvesant house is definitely a jaw dropper. I’d be laughed out of town if you all saw my house after that tour. I’m now inspired to keep going!

  2. Oh man the tour was great. Loved No. 3 with the old-modern mix (ESP the entry wallpaper and tile and the white lacquer Ikea cabinets with marble tops) and was speechless (jaw dropped) over house on Stuyvesant with parlors, coal/wood stove, and ice box.

    Got a bit lost midway and didn’t see as many as I would have liked. Truly amazing tour, wish they were having another next week.
