Condos of the Day: 152 Beard Street
Man, the new stuff going up in Red Hook these days is such a downer. Let’s hope the neighborhood doesn’t ruin itself before the powers that be make up their mind about its future. This fugly new six-unit condo at 152 Beard Street is such a downer. While it wouldn’t be an excuse, the building’s…

Man, the new stuff going up in Red Hook these days is such a downer. Let’s hope the neighborhood doesn’t ruin itself before the powers that be make up their mind about its future. This fugly new six-unit condo at 152 Beard Street is such a downer. While it wouldn’t be an excuse, the building’s existence would be a little easier to understand if it were priced like it looks it’s builtcheap. (Just look at those windows. Ouch!) But the $589,000 asking price for a modest two-bedroom just leaves us scratching our head and wondering which poor sucker’s gonna fall for this.

you can make a pretty educated guess, 4:44. There are two units per floor so even if the building is very deep, hard to see it going more than 900 s.f. or so. More important, we know it’s a two bedroom – because the listing says so. So – we hav ea two-bedroom apartment w/wall-in a.c. for $589k and a “private deck” that’s not private at all but shared with your neighbors. That’s a lot of money, given that you can get the same kind of place in other neighborhoods in Brooklyn and be able to walk to the subway in less than 15 minutes (and walk home at night, as well) and conceive of sending your kids to the area schools.
Wow! those garage doors are awesome!
You can park a couple of Hummers and a cruise missile in there. Great for a modern artist with large..um.. oevre.
quit the hating, find out more about it before you bash it…
how can people make such claims as”absolutely ridiculous pricing for red hook ” when you don’t know how large apt is?
A 2bedroom – could be 650sq ft…yeah then quite pricey or 1200 sq ft.
Why just off-the-cuff remarks without knowing more?
Where are your comps for new construction in RedHook? Or do you just like to make uninformed comments and pretend to know it all?
This was a product of George Geannakakes, PE. PE = Professional Engineer. That explains it. No practicing Architect would sell their soul to produce this mockery
3:28 – it will sell,
3:00-Park place is a dream come true if you wear tracksuits.
This is absolutely ridiculous pricing for red hook and not to mention that god-ugly building. I hope it never sells!!!
It’s even uglier than 145 Park Place!
