if you like that Burg building you would love Boston. Much of the city of Boston looks like that
DH- were you ever a child? 🙂
I agree. The billyburg building is nice looking. it actually strikes me as a contemporary version of the Ft Greene place in the picture to the left… i.e., what the Ft Green building would have looked like if they had the structural know-how at the time.
I agree with you cwb. I like it too.
Nforth is one of the nicer looking buildings in the burg, which isn’t saying much.
Not sure about the location – it’s right across from a school. Kids are so annoying and loud!!
I’m sure many will disagree with me, but I actually really dig the exterior look of that WBurg building.
That said, I’ve been to Williamsburg twice in my life and know nothing about the area except that Union Ave is riddled with half-finished condos. 😛
Thanks again for this thread. In the future, can you also add some properties currently for sale under the $250k mark?
Bed Stuy house makes me jealous. I used to live on the next block up, it’s a pretty good location, price seems fairly reasonable.
North Fourth condo makes me sneer, mainly because I developed a special kind of hate for that project last winter, when their scaffolding narrowed the sidewalk so that even a Maclaran stroller couldn’t pass through. And in the winter, with drifts of snow on all sides, this was actually a huge problem.
The Griffin sale looks like a great deal. I wonder what condition the apt. was in.
