The Argyle Unveiled
The netting is down and The Argyle is now exposed for the world to see. Not that we were expecting a whole lot but the effect is pretty underwhelming. The sales process, however, continues to limp towards the finish line. When we checked in seven weeks ago, there were 16 units left; today there are…

4th Avenue’s Argyle 60% Sold [Brownstoner]
Oh man… I live in a South Slope stucco special and I can say that this stucco job takes the cake. Granted, the sun might be hitting it at a high angle, but it looks really, really uneven and wonky. I’d be pretty pissed if I bought in that building. The prices for 3 bdrms were decent, but the location is eh and now the finished product is doubleplus-eh (yes, I just watched 1984).
at least they will be able to keep the deposits. should service the loan for a couple of months…
Poor Debbie. Even the ugly girls won’t be her friend.
crimson – are you asking for comps for new construction condos in Gowanus? This is it as far as I know. I guess you can look at the Elan or Novo.
What are your comps?
crimsonson – No anger at all, maybe just some snark. Do you want to tell me that either 4th Ave. or that building are pretty and desirable, especially at those prices. This building and its prices practically begs for snark.
Wow Debbie – that is one angry response. Argyle developer kicked your cat or something?
I would not be surprised a couple of those not closing, but majority? I don’t think so. I know a lot of the buyers are from Gowanus and Park Slope area.
500 4th Ave? 2 years ago that would have sold well like the Argyle. Now? I don’t know. Maybe in a year.
I would still rather live in the Argyle than some Willy B condo.
This place is almost exactly 3/4 of a mile from the park, walking straight up 7th St (according to http://www.mapmyrun.com). That is a 1.5 mile round trip just to get to the edge of the park and back.
If you live here, you live in Gowanus. You do not live in Park Slope. Gowanus is fine if you are a hipster musician or an automotive detailing shop, but it is not even remotely the kind of place where you can slap up this kind of building and ask people to pay almost a million bucks for barely 1200 square feet of space.

Oh damn!!!! That’s funny!
