Bidding War at 538 16th Street?
The wind hasn’t gone completely out of Brooklyn market’s sails, at least if one house in Windsor Terrace is any guide. According to a tipster, 25 families came to see the 1,800-square-foot house at 538 16th Street this weekend and six of them ended up making offers—at or above the $999,999 asking price. Granted this…
The wind hasn’t gone completely out of Brooklyn market’s sails, at least if one house in Windsor Terrace is any guide. According to a tipster, 25 families came to see the 1,800-square-foot house at 538 16th Street this weekend and six of them ended up making offers—at or above the $999,999 asking price. Granted this price seems low to start with for a house with some charm just a block from Prospect Park but, then again, it also looks to be in need of some updating. So what do you think: An aberration or a sign that the pessimists have it all wrong?

To 12:15–all the limestone houses on 10th, 11th, and Sherman and Windsor are Calder houses as well
“My girlfriend was called names almost on a daily basis.”
What does your girfriend look like? This may not be a safety-related issue.
I’m a loser (?) because you posted the following:
“What’s the rationale for over $1M?”
Racism.
Let’s not pussyfoot around it. Why would you buy this crapshack when you could get a stately brownstone in Stuy Heights or Crown Heights North? Because you think those neighborhoods are “scary.” But you’re just fine living next door to Joey Scunzool, 42 year old former car-service driver with rage issues and a restraining order from his ex-wife, living with his parents. Because he’s white, so he’s not scary.”
wrong again, 3:37. Don’t know if you realized it or not, but the democrats had a primary today too. You are such a loser.
3:31 – Not my problem.
George Bush doesn’t believe that 75% of the country hates his guts, but it’s still true.
You voted for Romney, huh?
I don’t believe a thing you wrote, 3:26.
I lived in Bed Stuy for 3 years, Mr. Smartpants.
And after twice being mugged outside the A train station, I decided to move to greener pastures.
My girlfriend was called names almost on a daily basis.
Nice homes in Bed Stuy, but not for me.
That wasn’t actually the point anyway. You made this about race, and it’s not. It’s about safety and quality of life.
Both of which are better in Windsor Terrace for me.
1:33 – I (1:29) made the comment supporting 1:19 not because I’m David Rogers, whoever the hell he is, but because I agree with 1:19. Simple as that.
If you have been to Bed-Stuy, 2;52, you would never have made that comment at 2:42. WOuld love to know where in BEd-Stuy you have been. Driving through teh area to get soemwhere else doesn’t count. You realize that, right? Obviously, you are talking out of your ass.
The crime in Bed-Stuy is in isolated locations within the very large area. But you knew that, right?
