147 Kane Street, a House of the Day in April, sold back in July for $1,700,000, down from an ask of $1,800,000.

There’s a landmarks meeting at LICH at 6 PM tonight (10/28) to consider an extension, dormer windows in the peaked roof, and skylights

I saw this house. Two elderly sisters lived there since the FDR administration. It looked sad and small with rickety stairs but with a half million dollar re-do it could be very nice I’m sure. The location is very nice, except for the hoarder house next door.
