House of the Day: Greene Avenue Goodness
We’re digging this 4-story Bed Stuy brownstone and suspect that it will be snatched up quickly. The house appears to have all its original details in quite good shape, from the gorgeous parquet wood floors to the dark-stained molding and wood paneling.

We’re digging this 4-story Bed Stuy brownstone and suspect that it will be snatched up quickly. The house appears to have all its original details in quite good shape, from the gorgeous parquet wood floors to the dark-stained molding and wood paneling.

One fare – two modes of transportation. Can’t we all just get along?
I hadn’t heard of the expression “2 fare zone” since the MTA did away with tokens.

Probably not the prettiest stretch of greene ave, but looks like a great house and pretty good price.
2-Fair-Zone commonly means a bus then a subway … I am sure the term is still in use even with the advent of the metrocard.
