Co-op of the Day: 175 Eastern Parkway 2 BR
We’ve had a thing for this building for quite some time now. The 45-degree orientation of the facade gives it an extra dose of old-world grandeur. This 1,350-square-foot 2 (possible 3) bedroom apartment on the fourth floor doesn’t quite live up to the packaging in terms of detail and original charm, but it’s a solid…
We’ve had a thing for this building for quite some time now. The 45-degree orientation of the facade gives it an extra dose of old-world grandeur. This 1,350-square-foot 2 (possible 3) bedroom apartment on the fourth floor doesn’t quite live up to the packaging in terms of detail and original charm, but it’s a solid family-sized apartment in an increasingly great area. The $865,000 asking in less than a couple of apartments that have sold in the past nine months but we’ve got no idea how they stacked up in terms of size and finishes. Anyone familiar with this building?

Okay, agreed, 12:08, the poster using those kinds of words including “bullet proof vests” is out of line. Certainly he’s not someone who likes being around brown faces in general.
Anon 11:38 I’m sorry but I don’t buy it . The people that can’t handle 3 million brown faces celebrating at once need not move to Brooklyn especially not Eastern Parkway. Besides if it was the annual wasp parade and a giant mud dipping pool was set up in the park while bulls were trampling people up and down eastern parkway and folks were throwing oranges at each other while fighting was rampant on the side street from too much Guinness stout and Ale. I doubt the poster above would of used the term “invaded” and called for “ear muffs and bullet proof vestsâ€.
11:35 here. Sorry, the 2nd post is the one I wanted to post. Not the first.
I needed to correct the text and add “not” to the final paragraph. “Not dissuade”.
Funny enough, I hit the stop button immediately, but the post still posted. I think that’s why the multiple posts happen all the time. Because in reality, the text posts immediately when we hit the Post button, but it takes a full minute of waiting, to see that it’s posted.
9:42, the participants in these parades people are so wary of, are the ones who need to take a little more pride in their own people. The violent and rowdy behavior at these parades is terrible. Everybody hears the news of stabbings and shootings at the parades, that’s what they’re talking about here. Is it racist to criticize ANYTHING about a non-white community? If so, that’s multiculturalism gone too far.
That said, it should not dissuade anyone from buying places near the parade grounds. Just plan to be away or not leave the apartment on the parade days.

why cant these people stay away from brooklyn if they have a hard time seeing brown faces.
Oh please, a parade one day of the year, with 99% of the people there to watch, eat and have fun. Amazingly not unlike the numerous parades that go down 5th Ave in Manhattan. I haven’t seen the real estate values de-value there, and they have a lot more parades than Eastern Parkway.
Does the maintenance include ear muffs and bullet-proof vest for the Labor Day parade that invades the neighborhood in early Sept.?
I’ve seen this apartment, and can’t say that I’ve come across anything else like it. It’s spacious as is, and the foyer could easily be turned into a separate dining area.
This space is actually 2 apartments combined. If you look at the maintenence (35% deductible)compared to other buildings on that block – its right in line. Who wouldn’t want to live across from the museum and Botanic Gardens?
