Co-op of the Day: 2 Grace Court
This two-bedroom at 2 Grace Court in Brooklyn Heights looks pretty darn good to us at the asking price of $675,000. With a monthly maintenance of $881, this place is cheaper across the board than the similar two-bedroom at 90 8th Avenue that we discussed yesterday.

This two-bedroom at 2 Grace Court in Brooklyn Heights looks pretty darn good to us at the asking price of $675,000. With a monthly maintenance of $881, this place is cheaper across the board than the similar two-bedroom at 90 8th Avenue that we discussed yesterday. This place doesn’t feel quite as grand, but it’s prewar to the core, has the elevator/doorman connection and is steps from the promenade. Seems like a lay-up to us.

This building was built in the early 1920’s.
It is very well preserved. there is nothing faux about it. It is on one of the most incredibly beautiful blocks in New York City.
The owners of this unit botched the renovation. that is not the building’s fault.
Buy it, renovate it right, and you will own a gem.
ignorance = strength
The lobby and roofdeck in this building are really to die for, that’s true.
I think that some folks have this building mixed up with 1 Grace Court across the street. That building is somewhat famous for its old and cranky board. The board in this building is the opposite, really nice and reasonable. At least in my experience.
where is brooklyn heights?

As usual, many of the posters have no idea what the heck they are talking about. This is a lovely building, it has one of the most elegant entries and lobbbies in Brooklyn Heights, it is very well managed, the board is mostly youngish and very nice, the windows in this unit face south not north, and brooklyn heights is a wonderful place to call home.
