“Forrest Hills!”
Is that where Forrest Gump lives?
“…doesn’t that still seem like a lot of money?”
In this case, things ARE what they seem. The peak COULD NOT have been much more than that. I once accompanied a friend to look at a big 2BR/2BA, brand spankin’ new, abated condo with parking in Forrest Hills for $400K in 2004. Forrest Hills!
So, no, that’s not down quite a bit for Jackson Heights.

I 2nd Snark’s comment on Jackson Heights. That sounds more expensive than even Forest Hills which normally has higher prices
> Jackson Heights… big two-bedroom …for about $370,000 or $400,000…
No offense intended to Jackson Heights – I like the neighborhood – but doesn’t that still seem like a lot of money?
Looks like a “jello” market. Everything’s stuck, not much movement.
WT seems analogous to Jackson Heights. That’s down quite a bit. You can buy a big two-bedroom apt with an elevator there for about $370,000 or $400,000 now.
Perhaps, perhaps.
i’m a bit in the BS-zone here. but is it possible that areas like WT are holding up better because they had less of a run-up in prices/inventory to begin with – unlike some other ‘non-prime’/’fringe’ (sort of hate all those words) areas like clinton hill, south/east williamsburg, or harlem in mnhtn, where there was much more speculation, development, hype etc?
I like Crown Heights. Looks like a downward compressed brownstone.

lala – I think the widget would have said $650K, so this price is about right. It was a lalaland asking price thats for sure.
