153-window.jpgFifteen months after buying the Victorian mansion at 153 Lincoln Place in Park Slope for $5,500,000, the new owners have converted the former brothel into a swanky 10-unit condominium. Prices at the Lincoln Condo range from $900,000 for a lofty two-bedroom to $1,450,000 for a three-bedroom duplex. Clearly this was truly a gut reno (probably by necessity) so there’s no historic detail to speak of in the interiors; the size of the building, however, means that the layouts are more interesting and, in some cases, spacious than your typical brownstone condo. We’re particularly digging this bay-windowed bedroom. There’s an open house on Thursday from 4 to 8 p.m. and on Sunday from noon to 4 p.m.

  1. “also, a place like the Edge in Williamsburg is going to be off the hook. it’ll have a pool that looks out to the river and beyond to manhattan for crissakes.”

    Also, because Williamsburg is not a “ghetto” neighborhood, its all good, right wine lover?

  2. The Edge — closing when?

    Schaefer Landing? Seriously? Have you ever been there? I agree – the views are lovely and it’s great if you never have to leave, but it’s at least a ten minute hike up Broadway to the JMZ train at Marcy Ave and more like 20 to the Bedford Ave L. The area around it is DESOLATE. Absolutely no comparison.
