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…

How much would a comparable, redone (to this level) studio go for in Manhattan or Brooklyn Heights? I’m curious if anyone knows…
And apparently, I’ve really been bitten by the downsizing bug. I’d love a super efficient, mod two bedroom flat with all sorts of clever storage and lovely little details. Would be lovely on a high floor with a terrace or a ground floor with a patio/little garden.
Oh, well. The daydreams of “A Lady of Quality” (Lady Vane’s memoire in the Peregrine Pickle) if you don’t know the reference…
If I were single, I would be all over this like a chinaman on rice.
Understand the math, inflation, the convenience of my quotations and the historic, once-in-a-lifetime nature of the recent peak and the near impossibility of seeing anything like it during the remainder of your life (massive worldwide credit giveaway and risk transfer). Prices will only bounce back to peak in nominal terms. Adjust to 2009 dollars and you’ll never see it.

“Never?” I’m glad you know everthing with such certainty.
“For someone who claims to be a Brooklyn expert and to live in Brooklyn Heights, to not even know Dekalb exists seems rather suspicious to me.”
11217, while Mrs. Champion isn’t white, her sense of direction and street awareness is likely even worse than that of brickoven’s. I’m fairly certain she couldn’t find half the streets in Brooklyn Heights on a map.

Can you please show me your math on this studio (rent vs own)? You own right?
Maybe I’m missing something.

Has anybody been to Samantha’s Southern Cuisine?
The menu looked extremely enticing.
DeLepp, I’m amazed why General Greene is so packed so often.
“Just to give you a heads charging for an additional occupant is very not legal and not only can the Leasee sue youre ass but you can be fined by the state on NY. Also the Rider makes the entire lease void and the renter can really fu%$&* you. You had better pray you make it when the next lease will start without the renter realizing it. SLUMLORD”
You’re funny!
BO, you need to walk down Lafayette to Clinton Ave and take a look at the old money mansions from the 1880s. Lafayette will also have the great masonic bldg and next door the queen of all saints cathedral. If you don’t like crowds skip Saturday because the flee makes everything crowded. After walking down Clinton to Willoughby, trace back towards Dekalb and hang a right onto Dekalb and there is a stretch a rests for brunch on the weekends. African, mexican, morrocan, french, japanese, organic, indian,and american (don’t bother with general greene though).
No7 is a great place as well, on the corner of greene, fulton and south oxford.
