This four-unit eight-unit condo conversion at 707 Carroll Street in Park Slope hit the market back in February and underwent a price reduction in April. Four of the eight units are currently available at prices ranging from $595,000 to $695,000. The developer certainly gets points for keeping the original woodwork in place; he gives them right back, though, for designing cheesy kitchens. Anyone looked at these?

  1. “As for lugging groceries, kids, etc., you do multiple trips. Problem solved!”

    Your definition of “problem solved!” does not equal my definition of “problem solved!”. This may be because I’m a lazy schmuck who gets cranky living on 4 hours of sleep. I won’t argue that point.

    But…

    30 steps up to the apartment. Drop off some stuff. Throw kid in crib. Kid screams from being left alone.

    30 steps back down to get more stuff. (note to self: do not lock self out of apartment)

    30 steps back up. Spend 15 seconds trying to convince kid you are not leaving him to be eaten by wolves.

    30 steps back down to get more stuff. (note to self: do not lock self out of apartment)

    30 steps back up.

    150 steps traversed and a screaming mad child does not equal “problem solved!” when it needs to happen 2 or 3 times a week.

  2. One last plug for walk-ups: in a co-op or condo, you usually get to park the stroller under the ground floor stairs. As for lugging groceries, kids, etc., you do multiple trips. Problem solved!
    I wouldn’t trade my top floor light, quiet, air & roof-deck for anything [except, maybe, a nice backyard]!
