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!

It’s really a shame that they built so much parking at a location with such excellent transit access. Other than that, this seems like an okay development.
Why would you want to copper NOT to turn green? The natural patina is the most interesting part.
There is no way to prevent copper from turning brown and then green. Even if you lacquer the metal the coating will fail and then the copper will oxidize in splotches. so hopefully it is not treated.
architects used to patinate the copper so it would be green from day one, that has for some reason fallen out of favor but it is the only way to get a really even verdi-gris.
The apartments seems sized for families but the building is in District 13 which has sub-par schools. Anyone paying $1 mill plus who has kids would surely want to be in a better school district.
I like the copper too, but is it treated so that it won’t turn green in a few decades?
I went to an open house there last summer. They had one model unit ready but the building was a total construction zone. The unit seemed nice enough (though I agree that they erred on the trendy side of things) with good light and was generally well-constructed. When the surprisingly uninterested agent handed my the prospectus I couldn’t reconcile the prices though. Even now they still strike me as too high by a good 10-20% if not more.
12:41….i think the property is overpriced, but not poorly located.
the only flaw i see is price and that is something that can be changed or fixed.
as for quality and location, i think both are superior.
12:38….that is indeed the spot.
and yes, it is in the historic district. they’ve done an excellent job with this building. wish there was a picture of the 7th avenue side. it looks nice from all angles.
i’ve been contemplating make a low offer to see if i could get one. i think it would make a good investment.
At those prices, seems like most potential Manhattan transplants would stay in Manhattan.
