Here’s an attractive two-bedroom in a lovely (albeit elevator-less) limestone building on one of the Slope’s grander streets. The pre-war apartment appears to have retained much of its original charm, including pocket doors and and woodwork around the windows though (what happened to the crown moldings, though?). This apartment also has its own entrance to the building’s common garden. Given the 321 factor, the asking price of $819,000 seems achievable to us. What think you?

    Right on!
    Comparing 3rd Street to Central park west? Oy!
    It is a wide street because it was the driveway, in effect, for the Litchfield family. no other reason, the walkups on the street are standard issue, No Eldorado or Dakota there.
    Fight against over priced shit!
    fight agaisnt it! Don’t give the real estate loonies a free pass.
    These prices are nuts, tell them.
    tell them again and again and they will finally get it. don’t be the last one to buy the tulips at pearl prices.

  2. “you can’t just compare this place to any other 2 bedroom in park slope. it’s on 3rd street people. it’s one of the most prime blocks in brooklyn…just like central park west or 5th avenue”
    Are you joking???? Comparing crappy 3rd Street (6-7th)to Central Park West and 5th Ave????

  3. Most people only have one or two children in Park Slope… I find that so sad. Is that because they choose to have a small family, or they think having more means having to move to the burbs to accomodate them.

    Move to Ditmas for the same price, and have as many children as you like (or not). We have four, and, happily, have been able to remain right here in Brooklyn. While there are plenty of families with two kids, only children tend to be the minority, and there are plenty of families with three plus. It creates a totally different vibe than when you encounter in other neighborhoods…

  4. Are you guys all suffering from Imus withdrawal or something?

    Why is there so much yelling on this board? It’s strange that we can’t just discuss real estate without calling each other names and resorting to personal attacks.

  5. Dump? I don’t think pushy realtors brought in 75 people to the open house at 450 3rd st. two weeks ago.

    It may be a “rip off” to you because you simply can’t afford it.

    You’re the idiot who can’t confront reality.

    and no, I’m not a realtor.
