First Closing at the Vermeil
It finally happened. Someone actually bought a unit at the Vermeil! According to city records, someone paid $2,010,000 for unit 2C and two parking spaces at the pricey Park Slope condo.

It finally happened. Someone actually bought a unit at the Vermeil! According to city records, someone paid $2,010,000 for unit 2C and two parking spaces at the pricey Park Slope condo. There were price cuts at the building in June, and its official website still lists 15 units on the market, with prices going from $899,000 for a 2-bed, 2-bath to $2.1 million for a penthouse. The site also shows that four other units are in contract and there’s an accepted offer on a fifth. Ya gotta wonder whether with all that inventory left there’s gonna be round price cuts before all’s said and done. Still, one’s a start!

Park Slope is a played hellhole.
I am glad Brownstoner followed my advice to get his clicks moving in the right direction again. Park Slope! Park Slope! Park Slope! Today’s other lame topics get no more than ~15 comments.
can’t hear you – I’m too old and creaky. I only see drug dealers.
sorry…but any person who calls this area (even remotely) a drug and crime infested slum is the idiot.
liked your post though, 3:04.
it’s fun to make fun of the slopers, even though it was the moron who called it a slum that started all of it.
it’s kinda like selective hearing, don’t ya think??
What an idiot. That’s just happy powder they sell on the corner. Who would get mad over that? Like dude said above- every single suburb is teeming with meth labs, therefore you should all be psyched, or something, Ya know- I mean, like everyone smokes dank, right? Don’t insult park slope with talk of urbanity… Unless we want to be viewed as urban, in which case we’ll tell you exactly how sophisticated and urban it is over here, got it?
Also, you people who say bad things have clearly never been to park slope, unless that is, of course, that you’ve been here too long, so you don’t count because you’ve become old an weird and bitter, but that won’t happen to us current defenders of park slope because we’ve been here just the right amount of time and we find old patchy the homeless guy to be a perfectly nice meme to complement our fancy but not too fancy neighborhood.
So the moral is that you should buy the house for 2MM next to the methlab and then smile when it blows up because you deserve it, you suburban fucker, or if not, then move to the city, and thank heavens for the muggers and dealers because they are like the wolves and woodpeckers that the antienvironmentalist crime haters almost destroyed with their greenhouse gases and overhunting. So, ya know, don’t buy that parking spot.
The bitter broker from Brown Harris Stevens who lost the job of marketing the Vermeil condos is out in full force today trying to convince people that Park Slope is as crime ridden as Avenue B in the 90’s.
Don’t you have some other overpriced schlock you should be trying to sell???
In Park Slope, Flatbush Avenue and Prospect Park West have traditionally been the two most active streets for muggings and drug dealing. But on the whole, Park Slope is remarkably safe. Certainly when compared to some of the newer gentrifying communities often discussed here. But no place is perfect. I suspect many of the problems on this corner will be displaced as soon as people start moving in to this building. The vacant lot was there for years, I think the plane crash was 1964, it made the corner seem seedy.
“The Q train is across the street from this building.”
You need to look at a map, honey. Your statement is an outright lie.
The Q Train stop is ON Flatbush, right next to American Apparel.
To get to the Vermeil you have to walk down Flatbush past the Card Shop, the Chinese and Mexican places and the Liquor Store, make a left onto 7th, walk past Park Place and then to Sterling.
From the data I just looked at, including Crime Stats, Police Blotters and the mugging map, I see ZERO indication of any of the crimes in which you speak.
I think you are that crazy old lady I see all the time in the neighborhood.
Are you at the Brooklyn Library typing this now??
The dollface comment doesn’t lend any credence your words. No one said it was times square, and you’re arguing a point that was beyond minor with regards to what everyone else was arguing about.
One thing though- watch out for the dollar vans over at the quaint crossroad idyll you’re describing– they pad ever so softly through this one lane dirt road and sometimes don’t stop to punch the horn before coming close to the damsels and gents strolling off towards the american apparel and points beyond
