445 E. 19th Street Dodges Foreclosure Bullet, Lists Large
Less than a month ago, the owner of 445 East 19th Street in Ditmas Park almost lost his home to foreclosure over an outstanding lien of less that $600,000; today, the house is listed with two brokerage firms for a cool $2,000,000. When we picked the house out of the foreclosure fray back in July,…
Less than a month ago, the owner of 445 East 19th Street in Ditmas Park almost lost his home to foreclosure over an outstanding lien of less that $600,000; today, the house is listed with two brokerage firms for a cool $2,000,000. When we picked the house out of the foreclosure fray back in July, it was based solely on its exterior looks—we had no way of knowing what the interior held in store. On that front, there’s some beautiful original detail, some of which has been updated. Whether it’s worthy of the hefty price tag only remains to be seen. Waddya think?

They are working on the construction of the Second Avenue Subway’s link to the fabulous Brooklyn Bridge Park. Seriously, they’re working on it. You will see it any day….any day….
I thought it was already under construction?
It took 20 minutes to run to the next-nearest library to his house (he was already at the nearest library), then he waited 10 mins for the person already using the computer to leave, and then another 5 minutes remembering his other persona.
I sat next to a guy on a plane about 6-7 months ago who worked for an engineering company involved with the 2nd Ave subway. It has a snowball’s chance in Hell
tybur6- I would be the last one to accuse the MTA of making good decisions 🙂
I’m still questioning them spending the money on the Second Ave. subway when we need serious improvements in the other boroughs.
If the house is not within walking distance of a synagogue that would indeed effect its sale price negatively but the Orthodox community here is a little more towards Ocean Pkwy anyway.
This is a lovely house. Don’t know if it will fetch this kind of price. I would tend to doubt it.
DOWhat, did it really just take you over an hour and a half to log out as What and log in as DOW8000SP800? Keep up the self-congradulatory exchanges…it’s so cute!
No apology necessary, What. It was an honor to be associated with a NY Mag cover story phenomenon and asshat nemesis.
Back on topic (this extraordinary but 1-fam house): You can renovate the home but not the location. No synogogue, no 2 mil.
Yep – it’s clear WHY they trains don’t intersect… originally. But how they haven’t been retrofitted since the “consolidation” many many years ago seems crazy. But, then again, haven’t they been planning the 2nd Ave train since 1832? Scheduled completion is 2050 I think 🙂
