At $949,999, this three-family house in Greenpoint might be kinda interesting for a single person or young couple with no immediate space needs to grow into. The existing three floors are a deeper-than-normal 55 feet and there’s still enough FAR that one could build a fourth floor as of right. More interestingly, judging from the interior photos, the house has a decent amount of old-world charm, a reminder that the faux siding now on the exterior wasn’t always there. We curious why more people haven’t restored the facades of the houses in this part of town. Presumably, the answer is money, but at some point hopefully one by-product of the upward pressure on prices will be a renewed interest in returning the houses to their original state. What do you think the facade was originally made of?

And you can breathe without choking on exhaust.
Nope in south slope you can fart in the back yard with out the fear of igniting the whole block.
i agree 4:44. and funny because if this were in the south slope, you all would be knocking down the door to get the place.
it’s the bones of these houses that people care about most. the siding is the siding.
Talk about being superficial.
The posts here would be very different if the house had clapboard. Preservationist would be jumping up and down. Learn to look beyond the surface.
B- this is more like the crap of the day. please no more
i keep my trust fund in my cock loft.
Hello Serge, I pick on pink plastic houses because they can’t pick on me back and because it is evil fun and I am sorry. I totally believe you about the Polish tradesmen and really respect good tradespeople. I learned this during my renovation and even though I had my share of eye bulging moments of frustration, nothing was better to me than finding someone who really knew what they were doing and somebody who can do good restoration, but I think your recommendation was for 2:59 and I agree that 2:37’s vivid picture of Greenpoint is great.
I agree with
Let’s play “end this sentence”.

Supergirl replies: need of a trust fund.
I live a couple of blocks from this block on Nassau and use this block when I get off the BQE. If you walk up to any of these vinyl sided row houses near Meeker ave (the BQE) you will see all the soot from the car and truck exhaust. I would keep the vinyl just because its easier to clean off that dirt. It is also right on top of the oil spill. Most of the residence on this block are pissed about the lawsuit because they feel if the lawsuit goes through their property value will turn to vapor.
