Co-op of the Day: 61 Pierrepont Street, #43
Three bedrooms in a prewar building in The Heights for $800,000? Sounds like a good deal—at least on the surface. Unfortunately, the surface is as far as this listing at 61 Pierrepont Street lets you go. There’s not a single interior photo of this sponsor unit. The lack of disclosure combined with the fact that…
Three bedrooms in a prewar building in The Heights for $800,000? Sounds like a good deal—at least on the surface. Unfortunately, the surface is as far as this listing at 61 Pierrepont Street lets you go. There’s not a single interior photo of this sponsor unit. The lack of disclosure combined with the fact that the unit just received a $65,000 price cut after three weeks on the market doesn’t inspire confidence in the state of the apartment. (Plus, sponsors aren’t known for the quality of the renovations in general.) Anyone seen it who can shed a little light?

Ive lived in BH and PS. My preference is South BH, where Smith St and Cobble Hill are in easy reach.
“American-made appliance”
you lost me
BH is a nice place to die.
“This apartment looks very nice,”
LOOKS NICE??? it’s a gut job with plywood floors!
I have lived in PS and now live in BH. They both have their attractions. The commute to Manhattan from BH is great; so many train lines. It is not an exciting neighborhood, but not everyone wants “excitement.” It is quiet, the streets are mostly beautiful, and despite what many of you claim, there is a mix of people: old, young, WASPS, Jews, rich, not rich, etc. If you live in PS you probably like PS better. If you live in BH you probably prefer it to PS. To each his own, right? And the proximity to the water in BH is amazing, and the architecture is too.
The “Park Slope is the best neighborhood” posts that pop out of nowhere on totally unrelated threads are the work of trolls, obviously. It’s meant to incite comment-frenzy. I refuse to believe they’re actual Slope residents.
There is probably one, or perhaps two, bored twenty-something arrested development cases posting all the Park Slope nonsense. Do what I do, scroll to the next adult post.
Brooklyn Heights is very nice but it is certainly not for everyone. Not even everyone who can afford it. But the nice thing about the Heights is that it has a nice mix of housing. There are houses, mid-rises and high-rises. Something for everyone.
Montague Street is not nearly as awful as people here claim, of course many of the posters here would consider an American-made appliance in their kitchen cause for suicide, so one has to take their opinions in context. This apartment looks very nice, the one thing I don’t like is that there isn’t a doorman. But that can be addressed in time with the proper management.

what did you add to this thread other than hate?
you seem to need some medication.
who’s the one with the inferiority complex? you can’t even take a few park slope people touting their neighborhood without jumping in and calling out 70,000 people.
i have never in MY life come across someone so hypocritical.
you’ve officially ruined the thread with your psychotic babble.
It never ceases to amaze me – this Park Slope hysteria. WHY WHY WHY do they feel the need to pipe up in every thread with their insipid comments (I love love love the slope!!!) I know everyone mocks Carroll Gardens, but I have never seen anyone from there, or Fort Greene, or anywhere else for that matter, feel this compulsive need to insert their neighborhood into every discussion. We in these other neighborhoods understand that brooklyn heights has a lot of appeal to a lot of people. Does that mean I would live there over Carroll GArdens where I live? No. BUT I understand why it’s more expensive than CG, and why certain people would choose to live there over our neighborhoods. And YET these F**** park slopers can simply not ever let it go. It is really weird. I have never in my life come across a whole neighborhood with an inferiority complex! OR maybe it’s just a handful of defensive brownstoner addicts…
