In another case of premature website ejaculation, the homepage for the 23-unit Smith N Court just dropped. (Thanks to Set Speed for spotting this one.) Despite its name, the 5-story, 33,000-square-foot project is actually located at 52 Dean Street and is scheduled to be completed this summer. It’s never too early to start chumming the waters though! Except for the penthouses and the ground-floor maisonettes, it looks like most of the apartments are geared toward the married-couple-with-one-small-child crowd, as the predominant floorplan includes a master bedroom plus a small second bedroom. No word on prices. Any early field reports on this one?

Update: Some pricing information just found its way into our inbox. The 2,868-square-foot triplex townhouse is asking a hefty $2,725,000. The cheapest apartment in the building is a 776-square-foot one-bedroom on the second floor for $610,000. The most expensive is the 1,526-square-foot top-floor three-bedroom with an asking price of $1,525,000. Size breakdown: 1 townhouse, 3 one-bedrooms, 16 two-bedrooms, and 2 three-bedrooms. The average price per square foot appears to be in the $750 to $800 range. Parking spots are a cool $70,000 a pop.

  1. Its a little weird that Unit #5b is listed as a 2-bdroom, when the floorplan shows just one being constructed and another as a “Future 2nd Bedroom”.

    Should I assume that there is some small issue (ie. DOB rule) that prevents them from building the 2nd room now?

    Does the Buildings Dept ever review the marketing (ie. websites) for these new buildings?

  2. Tom, “They are going to build more prison units where the gas station used to be”

    I’d like to know where you heard that. That was supposed to be top secret. But for purposes of clarity, it’s a jail (or more correctly still, as Anon 7:23 stated, a house of detention), not a prison.

  3. calling it Cobble Hill is fine for most of us- I don’t know when this “West of Court, north of Warren = Boerum Hill” got to be law. I have never referred to anything east of Smith St. as Boerum Hill.
    And from what I have read, never any plans for jail site across Atlantic from current spot. Last I read trying to get variance for hotel at old gas station spot.
