Co-op of the Day: 160 Henry Street
This co-op at 160 Henry Street in Brooklyn Heights ain’t for the faint-of-pocketbook. Even if you decide that the $3,250,000 asking price makes sense for this five-bedroom prewar pad, you’re still going to have to find a way to come up with 50% of that in cash. Building rules, sorry. (While it’s a high barrier…

This co-op at 160 Henry Street in Brooklyn Heights ain’t for the faint-of-pocketbook. Even if you decide that the $3,250,000 asking price makes sense for this five-bedroom prewar pad, you’re still going to have to find a way to come up with 50% of that in cash. Building rules, sorry. (While it’s a high barrier to entry, it’s also part of the reason you won’t see a whole lot of foreclosures in co-ops like this.) No square footage stats are provided, but given that the monthly maintenance is a cool $3, 845, you gotta figure it’s at least 3,000 square feet, right? Before you start guffawing, keep in mind that a unit on the eighth floor sold for $2,745,000 last summer and financing won’t be an issue given the high downpayment.

Well 4:18…you have to admit 3:38’s statement was kinda dumb. Why would people want to live on PPW and not here?
That’s like saying, why would people prefer Central Park West over a gutterhold on Amsterdam Avenue…
Much rather live here than park slope any day.
Clearly, those who don’t understand the maintenance, let me explain. It is a FULL service building.
blah, blah park slope me me me
cause some people prefer park slope, 3:38. i know that’s difficult for some to believe.
i’d also rather look out at expanse of a park than old bags in the heights.
why would people spend this much money on PPW and not here? Listen, it’s not for me, but it’s a nice place. I’ve been in the building. The ceilings are plenty high (10?) it’s just that the rooms are big too so it doesn’t show in these photos.
3:12, The rich always think they are not really that rich, but they are. everyone else knows even if they do not.
possibly a private jet.
This apartment comes with a private jet…SOLD!
