Condo of the Day: 445 3rd Avenue, #201
While this one-bedroom at 445 3rd Avenue in Gowanus may not look that different from most recent condo projects, for some reason it feels nicer to us. It could be the large wall of windows or the clean, modern kitchen. Because of the prewar shell, the ceiling height’s also a little more generous than you’re…
While this one-bedroom at 445 3rd Avenue in Gowanus may not look that different from most recent condo projects, for some reason it feels nicer to us. It could be the large wall of windows or the clean, modern kitchen. Because of the prewar shell, the ceiling height’s also a little more generous than you’re likely to find in a new construction project. None of that means the seller will necessarily be able to achieve the asking price of $399,000, but the 639-square-foot apartment’s only been on the market one day, so give it some time.

“Also, this is supposed to be a rear unit right? If the “R” in “2R” means rear, then it appears to actually have 5 windows running along the back.”
Ah. All is well. Phew.
I don’t think much is wrong with it. Looks like a nice one bedroom.
What is wrong with this apartment?? I dig it. Gowanus along with Greenwood Heights are good places to live.
Jogging…. as in exercise for the heart and limbs. It’s good for you – give it a try tybur6. It might help you rid yourself of some of that toxic sarcasm.
I think I’ve actually been in this building, at a similar apartment on the top floor. Too bad there’s no floor plan, but I think the bathroom is on the right as you go down the short hall to the bedroom. It’s a nice layout, and a surprisingly decent renovation of an older building. The location is a bit remote, but if the price comes down a bit it could be a good buy for a single or couple.
Oooh… we have ourselves a jogging local reporter! How exciting!
Living down the street from Bar Tano is nice, but not $399k nice.
I just got back from jogging past that place…
That’s an old picture. The building now has windows in the front (and actually some window boxes). Also, this is supposed to be a rear unit right? If the “R” in “2R” means rear, then it appears to actually have 5 windows running along the back. Looks like a decent place to me.
We use a window unit even though we have central ac. What is the point of cooling the entire apartment if you are going to only be in the bedroom for most of the night?
Ooo, LilBitOfLuck, good point. Hm .. . . . need TWO windows to overlap for it to make sense with exterior. They could have moved the art over for each pic (and performed some table shifting), but then the place would be quite a bit less spacious that it appears even subtracting the wide angle-ness.
Weird . .. trying to figure out some legitimate explanation. Could it be the side wall of the building?
And yes, central air not jibing with those air conditioners. Maybe exterior picture IS a mistake.
