It looks like most of the units at 153 Lincoln Place—the former bordello in Park Slope—are now spoken for: Seven have closed, one is on contract and two are still for sale. One of the apartments that’s still available, Unit 3C, has had its asking price cut twice in the last three months, bringing it to $999,000 from an initial $1,245,000. It has a lot of space—1,388 square feet—so we suspect the problem has been the untraditional layout. Or maybe, to beat a familiar drum, it’s the lack of original details inside a historic shell. Thoughts?

  1. that is SUCH a weak argument denton! (your second post. tho your first post was pretty weak too) and to answer your question, yes, i COULD probably survive living in dumpsters.

  2. I went to an open house here a couple of months ago.
    Stunningly beautiful exterior.
    One of the apartment’s has some wonderful views.
    Some apts have lovely balconies.
    Kitchens are nice.
    And there’s some interesting wall angles.
    But the interiors — including the common areas — are just standard modern apartment building renos: blah common areas, some bedrooms too small, some walls to thin, some of the building materials are flimpsy.

  3. ty, I wonder how much would be raised if tom’w they doubled the tax on homeowners. I don’t know, but are there really that many single family homes in NYC? Could there be a million?

  4. “i really do hope the economy gets worse so places like this will come back and make the city interesting and vibrant (in a real way) not that fake yuppie “interesting and vibrant” that they claim.”

    Be careful what you wish for. After all, you yourself have stated you’d be homeless if you were unemployed for a month. Then again, maybe you’re right. If I see you laying down on 5th Ave homeless one day, I’ll point out how NY is just getting so much better like back in the day.

    Do you have any friends outside the handful of Brownstoners who seem to have taken you under their wing? Not trying to be mean, but am genuinely curious. You seem like perhaps one of the most jealous people I’ve ever encountered. If they aren’t just like you, you hate them.

    of course i have friends OFF the internet. jeez. OBVIOUSLY not the 100s of 1000s of friends you have moving into park slope on a weekly basis, but i have some! stop polluting threads too, take it to the OT if you find it necessary to insult me.

  6. (burgundy paint on the walls of the “public areas” & the little hotel rooms were pretty much raw sheetrock.)

    Burgundy is the color I’d expect to see on the walls in a Bordello. Was there any gold fringe? Please say yes.

    And ‘raw’ is what I’d expect to see also.

    p.s. Rob…it doesn’t really speak will to your intellect (or much else for that matter) that you seemingly hate all children, yuppies, hipsters, people who have money, people who are happy, gay men…who else am I missing…?

    most “hipsters” dont bother me. they fly well under the radar. dont forget about urban farmers and fashionistas hate.them.
