Co-op of the Day: 277 Washington Avenue, #6E
Here’s an attractive prewar one-bedroom at 277 Washington Avenue in Clinton Hill. The kitchen build-out definitely encroaches on the spaciousness of the living room, but the overall space, complete with entry foyer, works pretty well. The monthly maintenance is $611, perfectly reasonable for a 700-square-foot apartment. Asking price is $385,000. What think ye? 277 Washington…

“I do have a sense of humor………..I think??????” (STARGAZER)
Confirmed.
“Then after the war, we got more and bigger bathrooms and closets. Ick!!!!”
mopar, you are funny. Read this!
The price is perfectly reasonable.
This is on a prime Park Slope block, right?
It was a joke , Where is the Guest bathroom…..
I know a studio is 1 room.
A 1 bedroom usually ( well back in the day )is a kitchen, living room, and bedroom. 3 seperate rooms., but I know, now-a-days it is still a 1 bedroom but the kitchen living room is combined…
I know the bikes will not stay,
but I have a bike and the closets they have wouldn’t fit mine, as my closet now can accomodate a bicycle
lolololololololol

Right, but those are space changes. I really mean material changes. Like wall board instead of plaster.
Then after the war, we got more and bigger bathrooms and closets. Ick!!!!
Nomi, major changes in apartment construction happened during the Depression. Dining rooms disappeared and instead we got dining “els” that all apartments now have. Hate those.
Rob:
When the Navy Yard housing that is now the Clinton Hill Coops went co-op in the ’80s, none of the tenants were evicted. They were also given the option to buy for very low prices. In fact, there are still a lot of elderly people (mostly ladies whose husbands were Navy yard workers) living here, and they are part of what makes the coops such a nice place to live. It is one of the few places a working-class family (such as ours) could afford to live in Clinton Hill.
