This prewar one-bedroom at 670 President Street (off 5th Avenue) in Park Slope has a nice vibe to it, with high ceilings and a nice rounded-arch doorway. The building is architecturally attractive, too, and boasts a common garden. Still, the price tag of $439,000 feels better suited to a doorman building a little further up the Slope, dontcha think?

  2. rob,

    methinks you are a bit off base here.

    first, that fire escape is more outdoor space than some of the new 4th avenue buildings.

    second, the term tenament, while it describes buildings, is really more of an environmental issue. if the apartment is spacious, has windows and is in a nice neighborhood it doesnt meet the criteria of a tenament.

    the fire escapes you bemoan are solely a result of laws enacted after they were built requiring certain types of egress. they applied to all buildings.

    if you want to see what the true tenaments were like, and not the buildings that have been included though the years, look at the tenament museum – http://www.tenement.org.

  3. i will check that place out 11217, thanks. i just find that all the fauxdegas on 5th ave over charge for beer. and none of them sell 40 ounces. i have to walk all the way to 4th avenue and union street for 40 ounces. and they only charge 2.50 which actually is the cheapest ive seen these days anywhere in the city. even in harlem they were 3. so i guess it’s worth walking that much. how much do you pay for cigs at that deli you talk about 11217? i get black market newports from georgia for 7 dollars so right now cigarettes arent much of an issue for me, but when i did i would go down there or to the gas station on 4th.

  4. Some of us don’t find walking 2 blocks to be annoying, Rob.

    The guys at the market on the corner of Berkeley and 5th are the best, anyway. They give me a deal on cigs…

    It is a little far from gamestop though…
