Co-op of the Day: 32 South Oxford Street
We wish the original crown moldings were still there and the bathroom’s a little too trendy for our tastes, but otherwise this studio at 32 South Oxford Street in Fort Greene is cute. (Some folks probably won’t like the fact that it’s on the ground floor facing the street either.) Maintenance is $375 and asking…

I actually think this apt. is more of a liabilty then an asset with the 350 maint. I put 175 in on the widget but in retrospect I would not pay that at all
15 blocks in NYC is far, brickoven. And the difference between Fort Greene and Bed Stuy — in terms of transportation and ameneties, which are high on most people’s list — is also huge.
Can your really buy a townhouse in Bed Stuy for half a million that in good move-in condition?
You’re an idiot, BO.
a TRUE idiot.
Nothing is relative in this situation. South Oxford in Ft. Green is Prime Brownstone Brooklyn.
B’oven, I live in Clinton Hill would could except it being tagged as fringe (ie as compared to BK Heights, Park slope, Cobble Hill) but think Ft greene has definitively moved beyond fringe and we can shift debate to whether it’s prime or not.

Umm… and you don’t find this repugnant?!?
Then you’re probably part of the majority. But I’m here to say, spending $70 or more per square foot per year is fucking ridiculous and I’m soooooo happy this city’s real estate market is being slapped around. It gives me hope that sanity and rationality might reemerge.
Oh, and 11217, your attitude is the CAUSE of the absurdly inflated prices all around.
sorry should have said 15 blocks over
I guess everything is relative here. To me anything on the otherside of Flatbush Ave is fringe. The price diff bet Bed stuy compared to Clinton hill and Fort Greene wont last. You can walk 10 blocks over and buy a townhouse in bed stuy for half a million. Why would anybody pay 250 for a studio with high maint
