After six weeks on the market at $699,000, this one-bedroom co-op at 160 Columbia Heights has been reduced to $649,000. At 750-square-feet, it’s a solid one-bedroom, but it’s still only a one-bedroom; and as cool as we find the Deco exterior (and as sweet as the views are), it’s not a fancy building by any stretch. So the question is, Will $850 a foot fly?

  1. You’ve got to pay a big premium for the views. To someone who values view over space, this will fly.
    It is prestigious location and one of nicest neighborhoods in NYC.
    I’ve been in one apartment in the building years ago – and there was a doorman and apt was great (sunken living room).

  2. I don’t know if I sound like a broker or not, Biff. All I know is that my good friend lives there and I”m always impressed by the elevators. The one (!) in my building takes forever.

    And anyway, I was trying to correct the original post that says it’s “not a fancy building by any stretch” bcs in my opinion, it’s a little fancy.

  3. “There is a doorman and a super and a small p/t cleaning staff and the fastest elevators in NYC”

    Fastest elevators in NYC? Could the two posts at 1:38 sound any more broker-like?

  4. I think this would be a great place for a bank guy (or guy) who is in NYC only part-time and can pay in Euros.

    Why don’t they stage anything properly in NYC? If this were SF, it would have been staged with DWR-y furnishings and recognizable art on the walls (all rented for 5k, natch)
