476 Sterling hit the market a year or so ago, offering a mix on one-, two- and three-bedroom units priced in the mid-$400s per square foot. A broker now tells us that seven of the eight units are now spoken for, with six already closed and one more in contract. StreetEasy shows that most of the units sold for around five percent less than what they were listed for. The final unsold unit is a two-bedroom duplex with a price tag of $562,835.

  1. This is between Washington and Classon. A block with a mix of houses, rental buildings, car crushers, vacant lots, and that little “loft” building next door that Andrea’s been trying to sell for over a year. My $400 psf isn’t going to crappy new construction on an unloved block — just across the street, at 475 Sterling (if you can get the brokers to give you the time of day), there’s a slightly smaller (100 sf.) 2 bedroom unit for $518 sf (vs. $432 here) in an elevator building with parking – and common charges are $561 total vs. $850/mo. for this apt. at 476 Sterling – proof thar $/sf isn’t the only thing to look at.

  2. “me. Does anyone know of any other recently-built four story walk-up condo buildings of this size at any price range?”

    Is this building that much taller than a 3 or 4 story brownstone?

  3. “And I walk along these streets off Vanderbilt quite a lot….there are some nice looking new buildings. Clean, trees planted, free of graffiti, a decent design. It’s good to see. ”

    Yeah – I agree. At this point I don’t really care what a new-cons building looks like as long as it is:
    A) finished
    B) has people in it

    stalled construction/letting buildings sit empty due to stubborn pricing developers is a far worse blight on a neighborhood than ugly architecture.

  4. I think that the price isn’t justified for a fourth-floor walk-up with a terribly unattractive snd unsafe looking staircase. Over 1/2 million $ for a two-bedroom doesn’t seem too affordable to me. Does anyone know of any other recently-built four story walk-up condo buildings of this size at any price range?
