Checking In On The Argyle
Things were going swimmingly at The Argyle in Park Slope when we checked in last April: At that point, 60 percent of the 59 units had gone into contract. Now, nine months later, about 70 percent are in contract (assuming the 16 available listings on the Corcoran website are the only ones available). Anyone know…

4th Avenue’s Argyle 60% Sold [Brownstoner]
This place is two blocks from the subway, and one block from 5th Avenue. The immediate surroundings may not be the most ideal, but look to the future… That said, the prices are high and the units are small.
This thing is in such a depressing location, I wonder that it has sold so well. Maybe it’s the scintillating proximity to my Holy Trinity of Fourth Avenue Cool: the taxi depot, the Hotel Bleugh, and the dialysis center…
crimsonson, I know, 4th Ave is no beauty. I actually think that large buildings like this are probably the best thing for this block. 4th Ave is wide, and greatly underbuilt. If you have to have these things, this is the street for it, and I understand that.
That said, it still looks like what I described.
this thing will not be done in april.
also even tho these huge buildings are alittle out of place most of the buildings are already ugly so this shit fits right in.
> “That means April for move in date”
Not a chance, they are nowhere near completion.
I saw the floorplans for this building. All the northern windows of the 4th Ave section of the building are lot lines. The 7th street section have northern exposure also, including some balconies and terraces. I don’t know what the view will look like from there.
Montrose – let us be honest here. With some exceptions – a lot of the “buildings” around this part of 4th Ave where repair garages.
And not like 4th Ave is a small intimate street. It is what – a 6 laner with a center divide? So doubt a tall building is really out of place here. On 7th street yes you have a stronger argument.
I wouldn’t want to have northern windows in that building … the U-Haul storage facility a block up is lit up all night. It’s like a tiny sun.
Last I heard they are in the process of getting their CoO. Letters to close might come as early as late Feb/early March. That means April for move in date. They way things are going I would say June is probably the reasonable date for majority of the owners.
16 units available is the accurate number as far as I know.
BTW – there are 60 units total. 1 for live in super and 59 total for sale. It was originally 1/58.
….and then a giant concret cube dropped from the sky and crushed the buildings in the center of the block, as it settled in to squat like a giant frog, amongst its new neighbors.
