4:47 – I dont hate myself – I think I’m wonderful but my neighborhood (P.S.) stinks. BUT I have an amazing and HUGE apartment with parking and tons of outdoor space and its in P.S. 321 for my kids. and so yes I can not afford to move b/c withing the neighborhoods I like more, it is either impossible to find anything comparable or it is too expensive.
Wherever you move is a trade-off of factors (unless you are a Billionaire) and that’s the trade-off I made. I am sorry my honesty threatens you in some way, but I see no reason not to call things as I see it – and as a ‘neighborhood’ – I think P.S. is way overrated.
4:52 here again. sorry i know i’m going to be beaten up for this…i’m not suggesting BROOKLYN isn’t a part of the best city in the world, but you know what i mean…
seriously though. you can’t really compare. sure…in austin you have a nice house and a nice little community but we are pretty lucky to have this nice little bucolic urban enclave just a few subway stops away from all the hustle and bustle of manhattan.
people all over the world want to come and live here.
not quite the same situation in texas where they are now having a hard time GIVING away houses outside of maybe dallas and houston.
Okay, 4:50, if you love the heat–I’ll give you a pass… because Texas is UNBEARABLY hot and I don’t know why anyone would ever live there year round. As for cheap space… it’s an old line, but what good is 2000 square feet when you walk out the door and you’re in TEXAS?
4:50…one thing you are forgetting…is Austin 20 minutes from one of the greatest cities in the world????!!
if you can’t find a hot chick in this city, you aren’t going to find one anywhere.
biscuit suuuuuucks
I’m excited for this place, personally, PCBs or no PCBs. When me and my ladyfriend first moved to Brooklyn 11 years ago, I used to get her dander up by predicting that one day Gowanus would be THE neighborhood. I envisioned little ricky ticky bars lining the canal, with their little lanterns glowing, etc. This Q joint is the first step in that direction. Who’s laughing NOW, ladyfriend? WHO’S LAUGHING NOW??????!!!!
4:47—the weather is much better (love the heat), women are hotter and obviously affordability–you can get a 2000 sq foot home for the $ of a crappy 600 sq foot hole in PS
Biscuit sucks, 4:33, you’re right. But I’m going to have to plop the asshat on you for declaring “West Austin” superior to the slope. Give me another reason besides the q.
4:43….
someone earlier said something about people on this thread hating themselves.
you embody that 100%.
anyone who lives in a neighborhood they think sucks is pretty miserable, bitter and frankly stupid.
and don’t tell me it’s because it’s all you can afford, because we all know how expensive park slope is.
