Co-op of the Day: 90 Prospect Park West, #3R
This new listing at 90 Prospect Park West has a lot going for it—prewar charm, park views, lots of rooms—but is also has some challenges: railroad-y layout, small bedrooms and no doorman or elevator.

This new listing at 90 Prospect Park West has a lot going for it—prewar charm, park views, lots of rooms—but is also has some challenges: railroad-y layout, small bedrooms and no doorman or elevator. The woodwork in the dining room is particularly impressive, though, as is the $825 maintenance, so there are bound to be plenty of families eager to take a look, despite the asking price of $1,295,000. Where do you think this ends up selling?

There just aren’t many options for people trying to plan for life in PS with teenagers…any suggestions?
rent them their own “teen pad” in a neighborhood close to park slope? this happens a lot on MTV Teen Cribs. Lots of teens these days get their own apartments. You can always meet for brunch on sundays and stuff.

What happens is indeed that as the kids grow, they all move. Usually out of the Brownstone brooklyn area (and often out of the city) because 3BR+ apartments in even WT or South Slope are at least a million bucks, and most cant afford that. Very few, if any, people I know who moved to PS in the past 10 years did so with the intention of staying once their kids hit middle school.

Very true, NOP. I always enjoy reading your comments.”
I do too!

That’s right Biff, making the quality of this number on Prospect Park West all the more striking.
In parts of the Lower East Side, that family of 10 lived in a space somewhat less the size of the foyer and kitchen here. As for bathrooms, they went to the lav in the hall and bathed in the kitchen sink. (The kitchen also serving as living room and bedroom.)
Imagine the pride such a family might feel if it were successful enough to move to a place in Park Slope? That is, if real estate companies didn’t discriminate against its religion or ethnicity, rampant (and legal) at the time.
