Condos of the Day: Park Place Doubleshot

It took some price cuts to get there, but as far as we can tell the Park Place Condominium development overlooking Flatbush Avenue at 7th Avenue in Park Slope has been pretty much sold out since the end of last year. There are still three units on the market, however, and two of them happen to be right next to each other on the fifth floor, raising the possibility of assembling a pretty large spread. All you have to do is come up with $2,105,000. Apartment 5F is a 1,360-square-foot two-bedroom asking $1,050,000; 145 Park Place, #5G is a 1,330-square-foot three-bedroom asking $1,055,000. Think these will get their prices?

Better than the alternative I guess, it being a recession and all. On the other hand, a little REM sleep every once in a while would be a nice treat.
Whoa Lechacal. You keep crazy work hours!
“And in terms of noise, how is this any worse than the 100’s (maybe 1000’s?) of apartments being built on Flatbush closer to the Manhattan Bridge?”
Oh, I completely don’t get those people either.
I’m curious to see what Dumbo becomes in 4 or 5 years. I’m picturing something with the charm of Hell’s Kitchen circa 1998.
Or maybe there are enough people who want to pay Manhattan prices to not live in Manhattan and not have the benefits of Manhattan but to have most of the inconveniences of Manhattan’s less charming neighborhoods.
Who knows.
I guess I don’t usually like glass and metal facades unless they’re much more interesting than this. I think the toren will be amazing, and I love the frank Gehry building on the West Side Hwy, but for the most part this building reminds me of 1960’s and 70’s school construction. But again, I’m judging from a photo so take this with a grain of salt.
And I can’t wait to be back in the slope in…. like 8 hours. Damn work.
I like that liquor store on the corner. Nice people and good prices. The one down between Union and Berkeley is nice too, but more expensive.
I try to buy everything I can at Super Savers, but every once in a while, I’ve got to make a run to Duane Reade.
I’ve never gone into that pool parlor, but occasionally been tempted.
No question that the second you start walking down 7th, it’s a whole new world. Actually if one lives in this place, the entrance is on Park, so you might be able to forget about Flatbush, unless your place overlooks it.
Can’t wait to be back in the Slope in about an hour. Always look forward to going back home.
Yeah, I take the Q home if I don’t work late. And sometimes stop at the Duane Reade (boring night) or the liquor store on the corner near the Q stop (fun night). I always feel my blood pressure drop as I walk down 7th away from that corner and into the Slope.
Of course if you live in this building you could hang out at that pool parlor on 7th (the one that looks like a good place to get into a fight or score some crack).
Sounds like we’re neighbors, lechacal.
Hell no. I told you…I love pre-war. I live in a brownstone co-op not far from here.
I’d NEVER live in new construction! Not my thing at all.
But I get off on the Q train stop at 7th and go to Duane Reade on occasion so I know this location like the back of my hand.
I agree with you…the Vermeil is a much better building and location.
