Condo of the Day: 1 Tiffany Place
We’ve always loved the exterior of 1 Tiffany Place, a five-story former warehouse that was converted to 70 condo units in, we believe, 1987. As for this particular unit, a two-bedroom, two-bath place currently asking $880,000 $840,000, the look and feel is a little too “new traditional” for us, but it’s clearly a well-renovated and…
We’ve always loved the exterior of 1 Tiffany Place, a five-story former warehouse that was converted to 70 condo units in, we believe, 1987. As for this particular unit, a two-bedroom, two-bath place currently asking $880,000 $840,000, the look and feel is a little too “new traditional” for us, but it’s clearly a well-renovated and cared for apartment. The price (which also includes a free parking space) also looks in line with what other similarly-sized (1,095 1,195 square feet) apartments in the building have sold for. Does it sound reasonable to you? See for yourself at the open house this Sunday from 3-4:30.

Thanks JLater, I didn’t get that far into the listing, but was recalling what was being offered a few years back when I briefly looked at a few places in that area. At least they’re shuttling to Borough Hall, but I would never buy in NYC where one needs to shuttle to the subway. Even with a car, I think it decreases the value of the property and is a bummer for family and friends that don’t have a car to get to and from your place.
If you work at Ikea, you could walk there!
Biff, from the listing “..and a morning & evening shuttle to Borough Hall”, so yes, there is a shuttle, but it isn’t really free (you’re paying for it with the maintenance fees).
Agree with others on the poor transportation options, but it might be a good option for someone who drives to work or needs a car for their business (sales).
It’s no man’s land.
I think it’s nice. I think it’s a good price. you have views of the city so you aren’t facing or hearing the BQE, you have a large open living area, 2 bathrooms, your own laundry. parking, a gym…geez, first i thought the mnt was too high but now that i read what i just wrote i think it’s worth it…but then again…it’s just me.
babs, when I was looking there, places were advertising a free shuttle bus to the F train. That just about sealed my decision to steer clear of the area!
Too far from the train… other than that, it just looks a bit overpriced to me.
It is not walking distance to anything. Definitely for someone who can drive to work.
Plus it’s really, really cold there by the river in the winter! That hike to the F train at Bergen and Smith is no fun!
