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?

Hey Biff, do you actually work?
This is going to sound wierd, but a too short commute is possible. When I lived in Park Slope, I could drink my coffee and read the paper on the way to work. When I lived in the Village and worked downtown, my ride was so short, I couldn’t do either. I found myself at work without the transition that got me ready to want to be there.
P.S. commute to downtown was just right (2,3,Q side of the ‘hood.) But it was annoying when I worked in midtown – but the Q has improved access since then – it’s quicker to midtown now than the old D train was.
“Oh, I’m young and have money, so why in the Hell would i want to hang out in Park Slope?”
You’re as insecure as that 44yr old lawyer yesterday.
Why do people get off on saying how well off they are on an anonymous blog?
Im the Dali Lama.
3:38 does everyone who lives in BH works on Wall Street?
The layout of this unit is not bad, compact, but not bad. I would take out a few partitions, add a bath where the walk in closet is, and end up with a 1.3 million dollar home. I would also negotiate the price a bit. The fact that it’s a sponsor unit is terrific, no tedious board application process. And the building is beautiful.
The problem is that you could not just move in. The reno will take nine months but any major reno takes nine months.
yeah, no one in park slope is young or has money, 3:38.
you are the most moronic poster on this thread.
and that’s saying a lot.
the median age of bh is about 10-15 years more than ps, btw.
I find Park Slope just as boring as BH.
At least BH is prettier and doesn’t pretend to be something it’s not with a bunch of phoneys.
And if you work on Wall St, the commute to BH kills the one in PS. Either 7 more stops on the 2/3, or take the F and transfer God knows where.
Oh, I’m young and have money, so why in the Hell would i want to hang out in Park Slope? I want to LIVE in a neighborhood that’s quiet and boring. I’ll hang out in Manhattan.
Hey, I prefer the Slope to BH, but this is one of the really nicest streets/places in the Heights, near the Promenade and all. Though parking there is impossible.
my commute from park slope to the upper west side is 40 minutes, door to door.
2/3 or the Q.
and we have shops, restaurants and the best park in the city.
i’d take that over brooklyn heights any day of the week.
on weekends, i don’t even need to live the neighborhood if i don’t feel like it.
when i lived in brooklyn heights, ALL i wanted to do was leave the neighborhood.
