80 Lex Rentals Hit The Market
The last we saw of 80 Lexington Avenue, the new residential building was just wrapping up construction. Now signage is up that the building is being marketed by Myspace Realty. Haven’t seen listings up yet on StreetEasy but the Myspace website says that the building has lofts as well as one- and two-bedrooms. Prices start…

The last we saw of 80 Lexington Avenue, the new residential building was just wrapping up construction. Now signage is up that the building is being marketed by Myspace Realty. Haven’t seen listings up yet on StreetEasy but the Myspace website says that the building has lofts as well as one- and two-bedrooms. Prices start at $2,099. What do you think of this place relative to some of the other new developments nearby?
I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again- this is Clinton Hill. Its close to everything in CLinton HIll, close to nothing in Bed-Suty. Bed-Stuy is between Bedford and Stuyvesant. I think it would be misleading to list this as Bed-Stuy– for people looking to live in Bed-Stuy, they’re not thinking here.
Which is to say nothing about whether its overpriced. Maybe it is, maybe it isn’t. I paid $1800/mo to live in a crappy one-bedroom a few blocks west of here in 2006. No sunlight, outdated everything. I did think it was overpriced, but it was in line with all the apts we saw at the time.
this buildings it not *that bad* looking in person. i do think its a little better looking that the apt buildings just north of here, in south williamsburg.
Brokers are destroying the rental market because of greed. Trying to make up for last year’s losses. It’ll Probably run more like 2300 with broker fee. It’s up to us “renters” to not agree with the pricing. It’s the only way we’ll win. Rent Is To Damn High.
Why not $4,000 to $7,500? Come on, brokers, have fun with it, don’t just push the boundaries, stomp on them!
Big open sliding windows without screens are the worst for city environments. How would you put a child guard on those?
Seems like a far stretch. Boundary and price wise.
And it’s ugly.
Advertisement on MySpace says 80 Lexington is Clinton Hill.
So crummy, even the Hasidics rejected it.
$2,099 1BR in Stuy or prime Slope. That’s a tough one.
***Bid half off peak comps***
WOOF!
