Condo of the Day: 70 Washington Street, #12G
This 12th-floor corner loft at 70 Washington Street was originally purchased from the sponsor back in 2006 for $1,629,200 and has just come up for resale with a price tag of $2,100,000.

This 12th-floor corner loft at 70 Washington Street was originally purchased from the sponsor back in 2006 for $1,629,200 and has just come up for resale with a price tag of $2,100,000. We love the looks of this place (and the size—it’s a very comfortable 1,737 square feet), but $1,200 a foot seems like a reach to us when there are 17 other listings in the building at an average price per square foot of about $900. To be they’re not all on high floors with these views, but still…If this goes for more than $1,900,000 we’ll be surprised.

I do not think that 3 bathrooms for this apartment is really necessary. It seems today people need a bathroom for every person that lives in the house, plus one for guests.
Geez, we did a family of 4, plus guests and survived in 1 bathroom, it really isnt that hard.
Id rather have an extra closet that is in use 24/7
Agree with DitmasSnark and Dumbone that this is the view i understand to be threatened. I am not a broker, much less a competing one, but have a friend in this building with this view on a lower floor. Seems like a lot of people are jumping ship in this building before the view goes… makes sense. Nice building but i would not pay more than 800-900 a Sq ft with all the Dumbo development projects lurking out there. Too bad they can’t landmark Dumbo, I feel like some of the new building going up are making it look like the Upper East Side.
Did anyone else notice that the guest bedroom was slightly bigger than the master as far as the room itself?
Can’t beat the views. I like the kitchen and the layout. For $2.1 million, heaven forbid the brokers exert themselves and post more than 2 interior pics.
> Hm….competing broker much?
That could be. It doesn’t negate the validity of the comment though. It would be a shame to lose the view – which to my own preferences – is the only reason to be in Dumbo.
does the “home office” lack a window? is that why this is listed as a two bedroom?
(also, i’m wondering if anyone on this board can tell me precisely how long it takes to walk to the A train from here and how many cigarettes a day i should smoke if i can’t make it in that amount of time?)
Dumbone:
And you registered today and made your first post ever on brownstoner to make that comment?
Hm….competing broker much?
god, 1700 square feet. i can’t imagine how wonderful that would be. the kitchen is really nice.
Love it. Between this and the HOTD, today is an excellent real estate porn day.
