Condo of the Day: 20 Bayard Street, Cuts and All
How are sales going at McCarren Park’s 20 Bayard Street? Well, it’s a little hard to tell. If you look on Douglas Elliman or StreetEasy, you’ll see mention of a total of 25 apartments, 17 of which are shown as being in contract. But if you look at DOB records (and use a little common…
How are sales going at McCarren Park’s 20 Bayard Street? Well, it’s a little hard to tell. If you look on Douglas Elliman or StreetEasy, you’ll see mention of a total of 25 apartments, 17 of which are shown as being in contract. But if you look at DOB records (and use a little common sense—the building’s 18 stories after all), you’ll realize that this represents only about 40 percent of the inventory. So while we prep for the inevitable next wave of listings to hit the market, an effort’s being made to move the existing seven units that have yet to sell. Which is why, for example, a 1,296-square-foot three-bedroom was just reduced from $1,175,000 to $1,050,000. Think it’ll move at that price? Anyone know when the next wave is coming?

So a million bucks to live on top of an oil spill in Greenpoint, Brooklyn…with only rich couples and families???!!!
I’ll pass.
“Yeah Fuckjuice, I read what I post! BTW The Dow is up because it’s called a ‘Suckers Rally’! The Big Boys are ramping the Dow and at 3:00 PM They dump!
How the Dow can be up on the Citi and UBS news huh???!!!”
Now it’s up 197 points.
Where’s the “DUMP” “FUCKJUICE”???
BESIDES the fact that only in real estate world are any of these condos actually in williamsburg. the zip code of 11211 is technically greenpoint, and this is the zip code of 20 Bayard. so go ahead and pay $1M for your new apartment in greenpoint. doesn’t sound so nice, does it?
I don’t mind paying a million bucks for something special to stay in this fabulous city.
But not for this thing.
It looks like it’s leaning. And that whole McCarren Park scene is pretty ridiculous on the weekends.
More like the inside of one of the tents at Fashion Week…it’s not a park.
What is the deal with The What? I am getting the sense that he is actually mentally ill. Either that or just a seriously fringe personality. But someone said he is a mortgage broker? That to me is disturbing.
These new condo developments are really all starting to look the same: same stainless steel kitchen appliances; same trendy bathroom fixtures that will look SO dated in another decade; same Fresh Direct fridges cuz there’s no actual shopping available nearby; same gyms nobody will use. But yes, let’s spend millions, folks, just to stay in this fabulous city!
“thrilling or not – who cares?”
You said it all and summed up why a lot of people hate Williamsburg.
I do happen to care what the neighborhood I live in is like.
You see it as a money making machine.
That’s the difference and why Williamsburg has completely lost it’s soul and why so many of the people who made it an artist enclave have left for greener pastures.
If not, this piece of shit would have sold out a long time ago.
People are onto it. This new construction crap in Williamsburg is gonna be on the market A WHILE…
And p.s. I don’t actually think that Williamsburg has the best shopping or dining options in Brooklyn. I like other foods besides mediocre Thai from time to time.
Isn’t this the building that had to apply to the Board of Standards and Appeals for an extension of time for the building permit? I have no experience with this type of application; is it mostly a formality? Or is there real risk to people in contract or considering purchasing a unit?
“BTW Citi Group and UBS Had to write down 3rd quarter profits. If you think that things are ok, you are a clueless asshole!”
yeah, so bad that the dow is up 170 points so far today for a record high.
you need to do a little more reading of articles and not just the headlines, buddy.
the news today was that while 3rd quarter profits were down, they expect 4th quarter to be back to normal and they also said they believe the worst of the credit crisis is behind us.
try reading one of those articles next time you extract shit from it.”
Yeah Fuckjuice, I read what I post!
BTW The Dow is up because it’s called a ‘Suckers Rally’! The Big Boys are ramping the Dow and at 3:00 PM They dump!
How the Dow can be up on the Citi and UBS news huh???!!!
Pay attention Asshole!
Also If I was you (THANK GOD) I would check my 401k, Pension or other investments to see if the Mortgage shit is in there!!! Stupid!
October is a VERY BAD MONTH for this kind of shit!
Plus please don’t let me be right! I will smear this shit in all your faces!
Someday this war is gonna end…..
