Co-op of the Day: 60 Remsen Street
This alcove studio at 60 Remsen Street has had a nice tune-up since the owner bought it for $315,000 last October (the kitchen, in particular, looks beautiful) but the fact that it’s on the first floor and, after all, only a studio make the price jump in the intervening eight months to $465,000 a little…

This alcove studio at 60 Remsen Street has had a nice tune-up since the owner bought it for $315,000 last October (the kitchen, in particular, looks beautiful) but the fact that it’s on the first floor and, after all, only a studio make the price jump in the intervening eight months to $465,000 a little hard to swallow. While no square footage total is provided, as far as we can tell from the floorplan, this puts the asking price at close to $1,000 a foot. Is this realistic?

4:24#1, you’re right. I’ve been to each of those places many times and they are certainly all well deserving of a visit and good choices. I also would consider the walk to places on Court/Smith Streets or DUMBO relatively close. It’s a maximum 15 minute walk for me to either. But to keep it real, I definitely wish Montague Street offered at least a few decent alternatives. Unfortunately, it must be more profitable to run more of a fast food type restaurant there to cater to the lunch crowd in that area.
As for this studio, great location but priced way too high in my opinion. $1,000 per sf for this? No way.
“I love how are you are saying where people should live.”
Nooo, I’m just pointing out where they DO live. Or don’t.
I never see young hipster people in Brooklyn Heights. They’re like everywhere in Brooklyn BUT Brooklyn Heights.
It’s not in Manhattan.
If this were in London it would be a million dollars.
If it were in Houston, it would be 70K.
See how dumb that game is?
wahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyy over priced for a studio. if they put the wall up and made it a jr one they could probably get away with asking this. the 390 one on corcoran is the same layout but they made it into a jr one by putting up a wall where the dining area would have been and it’s now a bedroom that accomodates a queen size bed! plus it’s on a higher floor..they could reverse the prices and it would make more sense
If this apartment was in Manhattan – even on the upper east Side, it would easily be $100K higher. If you want a doorman building in an established area, I don’t think the price is too far off

Well 2 Grace is 66K cheaper and $200 a month less in maintenance…
The first floor in 60 Remsen is really like a second floor. The apartment in 2 Grace is on the first floor but it has a real one-bedroom layout. You pick. They are both excellent choices.
3:46 keep walking to Le Petite Marche, Wine Bar, Henry’s End, Noodle Pudding, etc.
or just keep walking until you fall into the river.
