Co-op of the Day: 160 Henry Street, #1B
While this ground-floor co-op at 160 Henry Street is a far cry (both in terms of price and vertical feet) from its more famous upstairs neighbor, it’s still an attractive apartment in a great Brooklyn Heights location. It’s also a decent-sized one-bedroom with a reasonable maintenance, given that this is one of the premier doorman…

While this ground-floor co-op at 160 Henry Street is a far cry (both in terms of price and vertical feet) from its more famous upstairs neighbor, it’s still an attractive apartment in a great Brooklyn Heights location. It’s also a decent-sized one-bedroom with a reasonable maintenance, given that this is one of the premier doorman buildings in The Heights. What do you make of the $509,000 asking price.

And since I do love Brownstoner, and something like this would eventually leak out anyway (perhaps not the exact address but the move itself to the neighborhood) then why shouldn’t I want the blog I read most and care about to get the scoop on it first knowing that everyone and their mother will pick it up later?
I don’t understand your beef.
Without tips to Brownstoner, this blog would not have nearly the content it does. You do realize that, correct? Lots of the stuff you see here and post about are from tips sent in from readers.
“that most people could not give a rat’s ass where they live and weren’t dropping little anonymous tidbits to blogs about them.”
Actually, I brought it up casually in a post about BH and people started guessing, and I said I wouldn’t say who it was. It was supposed to be fun.
Then Mr. B emailed ME to take his guess and was correct and I told him to please do some research first before posting it and because of the circumstances, I didn’t want to mention how I knew or the address.
You sound like a fun one, CG ups.
if you have respect for someone’s privacy but absolutely need to share it, then talk about it with your friends at a coffeeshop, don’t send a blind item to a blog.
I had no idea…I thought he was simply speaking of the grandeur of the other linked apartment (size, etc.). It wasn’t until you mentioned it that I knew what you were talking about!
give me a break. so you fed the blog a “blind item” then completely absolve yourself of any responsibility now that it’s common knowledge and been reported widely on this and other websites? wtf. i remember things well, and i remember that you’re the one who started the whole shitstorm. i’m pretty sure much as people like either of the two individuals, that most people could not give a rat’s ass where they live and weren’t dropping little anonymous tidbits to blogs about them.
O.K. Now that it’s been outed, who is it?
“I guess I’m the only one who pays attention around here”
11217, I also got it as soon as I read it, but I think you’d really have to read the blog regularly to make the connection.
“::taps into psychic part of brain::”
Psychic *rob*, I’m waiting for my reading!! I hear you’ve become legendary.
Ok ok fine. I guess I’m the only one who pays attention around here. 😉
And I’m sensitive to this one in particular, since I was the one who tipped Brownstoner off, and asked that the address remain private.
Sorry again.
