Real estate investor and author Boaz Gilad’s latest development project has just hit the market: It’s a 14-unit, 20,000-square-foot Scarano design at 433 Warren Street. Probably the most distinguishing characteristic of the project is the fact that there are a number of triplex townhouses with their own driveways. So far, the only unit to get a nibble is a 1,624-square-foot four-bedroom that’s asking $1,495,000; there’s a “contract out,” according to the homepage. The elephant in the room on this one, of course, is the proximity to the Gowanus Houses. There was an open house last weekend. Anyone check it out?

  1. I personally think that is a positive movment to the block.
    I rent on Dean st, and i really like the finishes and the concept.
    It seems that they priced it in a fairly, since i saw few developments around the nigheborhood.
    I wish they will release one of the penthouse duplexes in my range so i’ll bid for it.

  2. Is this the one between Smith and Hoyt? I think it’s Hoyt, having a brain cramp.) Because if it is, it’s a horrible location. It’s a victim of that India thing where you’re walking in Gentriville make a turn and all of a sudden you’re clutching your purse and looking over your shoulder. I know because my daughter went to a daycare on that block and when the time changed in the fall and it was dark when I picked her up I used to pretty much run to and from the subway station. And I’m sure someone will write that I’m a sheltered yuppie. I am a yuppie, but one who has lived in marginal neighborhoods for most of my life and knows when to be nervous. In fact, once someone was definitely trying to jump me on that block, but I basically walked out into the middle of the street and avoided it. Besides the block itself is U.G.L.Y. I remember walking past this development and wondering what they would list them at. Over one million? The person who buys this is going to have to have family money, because he or she is much too moronic to have earned it the old fashioned way.

  3. No link to listings/realtor marketing this building?
    Whatever price they end up with – a positive development for the block and neighborhood.
    I think these buildings will age much much better than the ones build in the ’80s around the area.
