Co-op of the Day: 101 8th Avenue
We wouldn’t mind coming home to this mansion every day. The Classical Revival building is divided into nine co-op apartments. This one’s a duplex with stately living, dining and kitchen areas on the first floor and two bedrooms down below; there’s also a small outdoor space.

We wouldn’t mind coming home to this mansion every day. The Classical Revival building is divided into nine co-op apartments. This one’s a duplex with stately living, dining and kitchen areas on the first floor and two bedrooms down below; there’s also a small outdoor space. Even though the bedroom level looks like it might be a little on the dark side, we won’t be surprised if the 13-foot ceilings and stunning details on the main floor are enough to sell this place for the asking price of $995,000.

compared to any street in manhattan, 8th avenue is quiet.
most of park slope’s new residents come from manhattan. they would laugh that you find 8th avenue noisy.
this is a city, you do realize?
you also realize that brooklyn..on it’s own is the 4th largest city in the united states?
in the grand scheme of big city living, 8th avenue is a quiet street.
Oh no, I can’t post comments? Where is the love??
Well it’s a vehicle for open class warfare. But the crash is coming….
I hope you stay in the neighborhood during this time of depression. It’s going to be fun. I will watch the value of your homes go up in smoke.
I’m “The Twat” and I will be here for ever, do you understand that?!!
FOR EVER
The Twat
I lived at 8th Avenue and 5th Street, and 8th Avenue was noisy, to say the least. The cars go flying down that street, and more than once I was shocked by the awful sounds of cars smashing into things. Ambulances on their way to Methodist Hospital also make a lot of noise. While “noisy” is perhaps a subjective thing, I think a decibel meter would prove that this is hardly a tranquil, quiet street.
What’s the cross street? I used to live on 8th and Carroll and it was plenty noisy.
I saw it, it is cool, used to be a private club and the built-ins and living room are great. High finishes, split system a/c. But in the end the downstairs is two smallish bedrooms and a deck that doesn’t get much light. The trap door leads to an interesting cave below the bedroom.
On the other hand this is probably the closest to value that I saw this weekend from 750k to over $1m. So little inventory! The building and location are top notch.
I bet the co-op board in this building are pretty tight with approvals though.
yeah, most people buying million dollar homes do have some cash.
8th avenue is not loud.
too small, too loud a street, will never appraise so the buyer shoul dmake sure to have lots of cash!
It seems a bit overpriced. Despite the nice details, you’re still sleeping in the basement. There are better 2 bedrooms on the market.
Not sure what to make of the actual apartment, but I do love the location. All those blocks by the park are great.
