Co-ops of the Day: Side-by-Side in The Heights
If you had $2.4 million to drop on an apartment in Brooklyn Heights, 24 Monroe Place and 62 Joralemon Street would be a couple of your options.

If you had $2.4 million to drop on an apartment in Brooklyn Heights, 24 Monroe Place and 62 Joralemon Street would be a couple of your options. The former is a traditional four-bedroom place in a 53-unit white-shoe prewar building; the latter also has four bedrooms but is in a four-unit building and has a more modern aesthetic and duplex formation. Personally, we’d opt for the Monroe Place listing over the Joralemon option. How ’bout you?

Where do I sign 🙂
I like both also but would opt for 62 Joralemon.
you can get an 8 bedroom, 5 bath brownstone on berkeley place in park slope for this amount. a block from the trains and park.
Sorry 1:48, I guess we can spend our money on the townhouses 🙂
Where are they though?
shhhh, let people continue to waste their money on condo’s in the 1+ million range.
If you cough up some more dough, there are additional condos available on State Street (4 units ranging from ~$2.1 to ~$3.1mm).
The same developer has more units that are in construction on Remsen. Not sure of the price on those, although I suspect they’ll be more, given that they are steps from the Promenade.
I’ve seen Monroe, Joralemon & State Street – all of these condos seem quite expensive to me. Are there benefits to buying condo units rather than your own townhouse? For the price point on all these, I don’t quite get it.
is there really a difference between a 20 minute commute + 3x as much space + possible rental income or a ten minute commute and 800sf?
Give me the townhouse anyday
That Joralemon Street has been on the market a while hasn’t it? I seem to remember seeing that listing about a year ago?
1:38 — a bedroom off the kitchen is not for a guest — it’s for the hired help!
