avalon-fort-greene-0809.jpgAvalon Fort Greene, the 650-unit rental building we’ve been tracking since it was a hole in the ground, must be getting close to launch because its listings just hit the web; you can check out the developer’s website for layouts and pricing or StreetEasy for some photos of the model apartment. Pricing starts at just under $2,000 for studios and goes up to over $5,000 a month for three-bedrooms.

  1. I don’t know what you all think constitutes a “Wall Streeter.” Are you expecting Charlie Sheen from Wall Street? 11217 is completely right, at least in this respect. A guy across the street from me runs the derivatives desk at a major bank. My downstairs neighbor is a banker with GS. I’m a “Wall Street” lawyer. Granted we’re all family people, so if the point is that 20 something idiots who pay $500 for table service so they can get brief access to someone’s vagina live in Manhattan, well yes, that’s where those people live, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t Wall Streeters in Brooklyn.

  2. That is true, Dave…they are not all Wall Streeters…

    But the 25 year old guys wearing suits and Farragamo’s sure look like it to me.

    It’s not the full 50%, but there are a number of them.

  3. Why anyone making $72K gross would pay $2K for a studio in downtown Brooklyn is totally beyond me. The same person can get a one-bedrooom somewhere nice for much less. As BHO pointed out, that’s a lot of money that could be going to a down payment, savings, travel, or just enjoying life.
