  5. 3:28- really? Great! I’ve been looking for a while now so please send me 1000- ok- just 5 listings with:
    – 3 bedrooms (at least 85 sq. feet each)
    – 1100-1200 square feet
    – No walkup (ok- 1 flight)
    – Zoned for 321/39/107
    – 2 bathrooms (no half baths please)
    – $900K or less (maintenance has to be less than $700).

    Forget the central AC/heat (since no brownstone apt would have that and I don’t mind window units). Oh yeah- it has to be in move in condition (does not have to be new- just nice enough to require no work upon moving in).

    People like you 3:28 are the real sad ones. You make comments that are impossible to back up- and you’re the guy you run into in the neighborhood- find out where the other person lives- walks away- and talks sh*t about them behind their back- not even thinking there must be a reason behind certain decisions in their lives.

    Seriously- if you can send me the 5 listings I would love it so I can go visit those properties too. I really am anxious to increase my search and I guess I haven’t been doing a good job looking since I missed 1000 listings.

    Thanks.

  6. I can’t imagine how ANYONE would be looking to buy something in the NOVO.

    You would have to be missing a chromosome.

    There are 1000 better options within a mile radius of this place.

  7. Thanks Velvet and bkjennie. My wife and I were under the impression that new developments rarely negotiate price- unless they’ve been around a while. The unit I’m going to look at does indeed look over 4th and I’m worried about the view too (and the noise) but the units facing the other way are priced higher and I don’t think worth the premium. Also the ones on the really high floors are priced even higher than that and I couldn’t even afford those so that’s a no go. I’ve read the comment about the bathroom before on curbed- that you have to go through the closet and the shower is tiny. Still- its 1 more shower than I have now. I guess I’ll see for myself.

    What’s 457 Atlantic?

  8. I will answer to the best of my knowledge, and I could care less if you are a broker, buyer, etc.

    We looked at the Novo back in November, and were told to make an offer and they would consider it. So, I guess if your offer is reasonable, it will be accepted. The building will have some nice amenities, and it’s really great to have a brand new place, but keep in mind a few things:

    1) Apartments with Manhattan views also overlook 4th Ave., so it’s not the most attractive side of the building, and future building on the other side of 4th may obstruct views of Manhattan anyway. Apartments in the back of the building overlook Park Slope all the way up to Prospect Park, so while it’s not Manhattan, it also won’t be changing in the future.

    2) The bigger 2 Bedroom layouts are all a little weird. The master bath is through a closet and the shower is very narrow and hardly conducive to washing longer hair or moving around with ease.

    3) Kitchen areas tend to have “dead space” where you could have had a small island or counter. Kitchen finishes are not as sleek as other new builds in the area and are kind of dated – shiny almond formica, almond counter tops. The kitchens at 457 Atlantic are so much nicer.

    Hope this is helpful.
