Condo of the Day: One Hanson Place, #21GF
How much is one of the nicest terraces in Brooklyn worth? This three-bedroom listing on the 21st floor of One Hanson Place will answer that. As far as we can tell, the outdoor space (of which there is 1,000 square feet) is being priced at about the same level as the indoor space (about 2,500…

How much is one of the nicest terraces in Brooklyn worth? This three-bedroom listing on the 21st floor of One Hanson Place will answer that. As far as we can tell, the outdoor space (of which there is 1,000 square feet) is being priced at about the same level as the indoor space (about 2,500 square feet). The asking price is $3,200,000. Some other apartments on lower floors have been selling for around $800 a foot, which would imply that the indoor space here is worth only $2,000,000 and, by extension, that the outdoor space is accounting for $1,200,000 of the asking price. If one is more generous and says that the indoor space is worth $1,000 a foot because of the high floor, then that lowers the terrace’s implied price tag to $700,000, or $700 a foot. There’s an open house tomorrow from 12 to 1 p.m. for lunchtime gawkers.

Steps to Chuck E. Cheese!
Looks like generic, run-of-the-mill construction. If someone believes it is worth 1K/sq ft, more power to them. God bless.
Yes 1:20, it is “cheaper” by a cool mill, but it is not “much bigger”. It is, in fact, smaller by a couple hundred sq ft, and lacks the 1000 sq. ft of terrace – with quite possibly the best views to be had in the entire borough.
While the PS place is on the park, has green views and seems to be a nice pad, this place is a show stopper for someone willing to pay for it. I don’t think these two properties are comparable. The place on the Park is only 2,200 sq. feet, is pretty but not particularly outstanding, and is asking north of 2 mm.
On the other hand, this place is in a pretty crappy location, but is in THE clock tower, has every subway within a hop skip, and is truly singular with those views. They’ll also be closer to the happening fun of the MTV kids in no time at all. Now THAT’S something. Where do I sign up?
They might get something close to this.
too windy.
you’ll be able to use the space 10 days a year.
This is not just an outdoor space – you need to see the views from up there.
Whether or not #1 is a broker, the Plaza Street posting is apples and oranges – the buyer for that unit is not the buyer for 1 Hanson.
But to make it relevant (maybe), I think the layout of both the 1 Hanson unit and the Plaza West unit are horrid. Plaza West is a corridor with a bunch of rooms; 1 Hanson is just illogical (maybe because it combines 2 units?) – do you really need a storage room and FOUR bathrooms?? Both places have too many walls.
Schwing!
The terrace is gorgeous but keep in mind that this is the tallest building around for miles and the wind up there most days will make it unusable. On still summer days though it will be magical.
I like the Park Slope place better. It’s cheaper than One Hanson by a million dollars or yesterday’s Co-op of the Day. And it’s much bigger and still has views.
1:10 – it really is’t a “hike” to anything from One Hanson. I live near there and am within a quick 5-10 minute walk of the best of Fort Greene, North Slope (especially 5th Ave), and Smith & Court Streets, not to mention all the places along Atlantic.
No, I’m not a broker but as a resident I absolutely love living in this neighborhood.
