Co-op of the Day: 35 Prospect Park West
Does 35 Prospect Park West have more multi-million-dollar mega apartments than any other prewar building in Brooklyn? It sure feels like it. We’ve already covered a penthouse asking more than $6 million and a high-floor duplex asking $4,450,000. Now another mac-daddy duplex has come to market with a price tag of $4,950,000. This one has…

This one has a tricked out new kitchen, four bedrooms, an exercise room and 3-zone air conditioning system. Pretty swanky.

I love the idea of someone who buys this place (probably a net worth of 10-15 million plus) with a plastic walmart blow up kiddie pool…
“Parks are great, but you can’t really sit in one in your bathrobe, with a cup of Joe and the Times. You can’t really plunk a kiddy pool in the park and fill er’ up with hose water. You can’t start an herb garden at the Park. You can’t plant your favorite flowers and greens and tend to them while working the dirt through your fingers. And so on. You can’t appreciate a garden gnome at the park. Kidding.”
Do you seriously think that the person(s) with the budget to buy this place are the kiddy pool type?
And if they are the gardening type, they would be looking at some place that they could have a huge greenhouse to keep their orchids and their prize winning hybrid roses, a simple pot or two for plants on a terrace or back yard just will not cut it.
I have a gorgeous herb garden in Brooklyn.
Oh. What a downer, 1:22. Geez. Are you actually saying one can’t plant a garden, inclusive of herbs, in Brooklyn without inviting a massive rodent infestation? And the grill thing gave me chills. Brrrr.
But the pool, point taken. We would of course dump the water at the end of the afternoon. It’s just for some splashing fun on a hot day.
And 1:17, spot on. We have a 400K budget. Please.
I have a yard in Park Slope and it’s great, but:
plant a herb garden or greens only if you want to end up with rats in yard (or in your kitchen, on the counter, eating a loaf of bread — happened).
keep a grill out there only if you want to find rats when you open the top (happened)
keep a kiddie pool only if you want a summer ruined by mosquitos (what is with the mosquitos in brooklyn?)
otherwise, I love it.
Nokilissa…the more you most saying you’re “looking” to buy, the more I think on your 400K budget, you’ll be looking a lot longer.
I always hate your comments. So idiotic.
Brownstoner didn’t comment on the recessed lighting? What’s the world coming too?
Oh, as for the apartment at hand, me no likey. Not my taste at all. Hate the kitchen and the rooms are seemingly dark and ostentacious. Too “manor-y”.
And interesting given the thread about marauding teens and the idea that we have no real economic divide issue. five and six million dollar apartments a hop skip away from marauding teen incidents. Just sayin’.
Have any of these sold?
