Condo of the Day: 30 Main Street, #2C
Here’s another eye-catching loft at 30 Main Street (aka The Sweeney Building) in Dumbo. The 1,679-square-foot space just hit the market with a not-so-crazy asking price of $1,250,000. Other than the fact that it’s on the second floor, we can’t find any fault with it. Pretty sweet! Think the sellers will get their price? 30…

Brooklyn Indiana. Just caught that on the map. Funny. I work in DUMBO and love working there, but it’s too remote to live there (long walk uphill to the trains and you have to leave DUMBO any time you need anything at all). Pickles and Peas? Foresters? Crazy cup shaking homeless people? Attack of the thug teenagers at dusk and all night long. No thanks.
Maybe I’m just old school, but why do they insist on ruining their lofts like this? That’s a loft that was converted into an condo apartment with delusions of grandeur. And if I wanted that I would simply buy a condo in the first place.
Are there any *real* lofts in DUMBO left?

Can someone answer the question why you would want to live in DUMBO? I’m pretty curious to hear legitimate answers
The floorplan shows this space (total) to be about 37×33 — that’s abour 1220 sq ft. so even if you add a couple feet to both dimensions for walls it is still not 1600 sq ft. And those fish eye lens distort everything.
Umm… why is it again that DUMBO is such a great place to live? I don’t get it. I could see working there, but not living there.
There is that nice grocery store that only charges about $8.50 for a banana. So, I guess that’s a draw, right?
Can someone give us an accurate square footage? This is a lesson as to why one must never never take square footage figures literally. They are always inflated sometimes by a little and sometimes, as here, by a lot.
Tight entries like this are murder for furniture deliveries. Alot of things don’t fit, especially beds and sofas. Make sure everything you buy breaks down and that large chairs have removable feet. Seriously, people don’t think about it but a dogleg entryway like this, with a flight of steps to boot, is really inconvenient.
By regular people measurements, it’s no more than 1200 sq ft.
Yes, the (larger) bathroom is proportioned for a place twice this size. So’s the walk-in closet, or dressing room. It leaves you with JUST that not-really-so-big open room for common living space. Though, I suppose, if no children, the second bedroom becomes part of common living space with some separation which I would long for.
To me, it’s a misguided approach toward these high end apartments. But I guess they are appealing for a lot of people.
