In the comments section of Tuesday’s Daily Links, a reader questioned how many people really want to live on Myrtle and Kent. Now it just so happens that the day before we passed the development that’s going up at 609 Myrtle. The design, which screams Scarano (a decent bet given that this is a Developers Group project), is certainly fancier than anything else in the immediate vicinity. Regardless of how nice the building is, if the condo market is anything but super-hot, it seems to us that it’s going to be tough to sell buyers on this location. Do others agree? GMAP.

  1. Why on earth would anyone choose to live there when there is so much product out there right now, better buildings, in better areas. Maybe when the market was hot, but now… no way! And safe? Surely that was a broker who wrote that. That area is not safe!

  2. I dont know why my other post was deleted. And not that it’s any of your business, but I have had jobs since I was 13 and have enough money in the bank for a down payment. And yes my parents will be helping me out with the monthly payments the same way they would have in a dorm situation. So I ask again, anyone have some additional information on this building?

  3. As far as Pratt students with Daddy’s $$, the Clinton Mews (Dekalb Ave. former Pratt warehouse) condo conversion the the late 80’s (I am dating myself), and it filled almost instantly with Pratt students.

    So a repeat performance could happen in this day & age…
