Co-op of the Day: 423 Atlantic Avenue, #2M
This 1,500-square-foot (we’re guessing) loft at 423 Atlantic Avenue in Boerum Hill just hit the market this week. It looks to us like the three-bedroom co-op has a great sense of space and nice wall of windows. Given that this stretch of Atlantic is not as gentrified as the blocks closer to Smith and Bond,…
This 1,500-square-foot (we’re guessing) loft at 423 Atlantic Avenue in Boerum Hill just hit the market this week. It looks to us like the three-bedroom co-op has a great sense of space and nice wall of windows. Given that this stretch of Atlantic is not as gentrified as the blocks closer to Smith and Bond, the asking price of $1,300,000 seems a little aggressive on a per-square-foot basis. The first open house is this Sunday from 12 to 2 p.m.

sam, good observation. Perhaps it isn’t everything it was cracked up and expected to be, but I’m quite happy it opened and really like some of their products. Combined with Sahadi’s, one can find lots of yummy things to buy in that area.
Just remember your sneakers – No Eschews, No Shirt, No Service!
Sam’s comment at 4:51 should be the quote of the day. Well put! (And every quote of the day should include the word “eschew.”)
everyone was dying, dying, for the trader joes to open. now that it has, and it is popular with the masses, it joins granite counters and recessed lighting as something a true connoisseur eschews.
cannot stop staring at agent helen’s ballooning lips.
seriously, brownstoner, can you have a feature on Funky Looking Agent of the Day?
“actually one of the first buildings in the neighborhood that attracted people to the area, back in the late eighties/early nineties”
1) this coop was from the 1970’s and people have been attracted to the neighborhood before the 1870’s.
2) also underwhelmed by TraderJoe’s. Tried several times but still love Sahadi’s.
quote:
I was in Trader Joes for the first time just before Thanksgiving. I was totally underwhelmed.
quote for truth. seriously. there is nothing more overhyped than trader jokes.. well except for whole foods. overpriced, overly green food. barf.
*rob*
I was impressed by the new Trader Joe’s. I think they did a great job reusing the old bank space. It is unusual to buy groceries amid such architectural grandeur. I also like their prices, I don’t like the long checkout lines but I guess they are indicative of the store’s success. I just wish I lived nearer by. That stretch of Court Street has really blossomed into a real town-like Main St. Another plus for Cobble Hill/Brooklyn Heights
I too was underwhelmed by Trader Joes. Selection not so great and the private label brands I purchased were OK at best.
This was one of the first gentrifrying buildings in the neighborhood. Ironically, the reason that this block doesn’t feel as “gentryfied” now is becasue this almost block encompassing buidling has very little ground floor retail. So, no restaurants, bars or cafes etc.
