Bay Ridge

I think it's a cozy warm looking Home. Love the many windows, backyard, plants are my friends, front entryway, the brightness, floors and Asking is fair.I believe will get Asking or Above. Anywho...A+

I remember our family going to Fort Hamilton on the weekends to watch the construction of the Verrazano. We would have Sunday dinner at the original Hamilton House, then sit on a blanket by the cannons at the John Paul Jones Cannonball Park and be amazed at this wonder of construction

For those looking to explore Bay Ridge, do yourself a huge favor and avoid the suggested map route of Bay Ridge Avenue and Bay Ridge parkway. These are two of the most un-quaint stretches in the entire neighborhood. Take Senator Street down to the water so that you can see the historic district (looks like UWS) and the amazing views from Owls Head (Bliss) Park. Then walk all around the lower 80's streets west of Ridge Blvd. Some grand old survivors in their original glory...Don't forget to check out the grounds of Visitation Academy. Afterwards, plenty of bars and restaurants along 3rd Avenue. Of course the most important rule is to visit Bay Ridge in the springtime when the entire neighborhood is in bloom.

Location Location Location and this one is not very good considering the enormous asking price. It is directly across the street from one of the largest public high schools in the entire system (Ft. Hamilton 4,600 students) and the facility is highly active 7 days a week year round in one way or another. This would include an enormous athletic field practically in Gingerbread's front yard. Bottom line; anyone with this kind of money is looking on Shore Road or high 70's.
