House of the Day: 40 St. Marks Avenue
After purchasing the brownstone at 40 St. Marks Avenue in Park Slope for $900,000 in 2003, the current owners set about doing a renovation that looks to be quite tastefully modern. We’re not sure how much original detail they had to work with, but a couple of marble fireplaces are about all we can spot…
After purchasing the brownstone at 40 St. Marks Avenue in Park Slope for $900,000 in 2003, the current owners set about doing a renovation that looks to be quite tastefully modern. We’re not sure how much original detail they had to work with, but a couple of marble fireplaces are about all we can spot now. Still, it looks like a quality job, so we suspect they’ll be plenty of interested parties. Whether they’ll be able to swallow $2,195,000 for a house between 5th and 6th Avenues remains to be seen.

5:59 – Thanks for helping to prove my theory that there is a giant douchebag magnet buried in Prospect Park.
5:59: ooooooh, you don’t consider the “M” train a train! Damn! You nailed me!
Well, this is the “M” train here and I consider you an elitist 8th Avenue turd (except white).
I better not catch your stay-at-home ass on 5th Ave or there’s going to be trouble.
…and when being a snob, don’t split your infinitives, it makes you look stoopid.
there is ace supermarket at berkeley and 7th. they have lovely milk.
there is key food at carroll and 7th. just had a terrific makeover. also carry milk, last i checked.
or if you like your milk, stricly organic, there is back to the land at garfield and 7th.
too far for you?
well then there are about 15 delis from flatbush to 15th along 7th and some of 8th.
yes, actually the 2/3 is an express train.
if 15 minutes from Grand Army Plaza to Wall Street is too much for you, you need some help.
I find Bergen or Grand Army a world more pleasant than Atlantic Terminal.
And have fun once 14,000 more residents are piling in there every day.
I don’t consider the M to even be a train.
5:46pm: “Upper West Side” and “snatch” should never be used in the same sentence.
Thank you.
Also when it’s late at night who wants to walk 5 blocks to get a carton of milk at the deli. You need one right nearby.”
“Yeah, no milk on 7th avenue”.
on 8th street there is even a deli between 8th ave and the park. what are these people talking about, far from a carton of milk.
2/3 train is an express train?!?!
Please remove your head from ass. 7 stops from Grand Army Plaza to Wall Street is not “express.”
4 stops on 4/5 from Atlantic Ave. to Wall Street, 2 stops on N to Grand Central, that’s express.
PLUS, if you’re center slope by the park (3rd Street and 7th Ave., etc.) that’s a loooong walk to Grand Army. At least 4th Ave has M/R to get you to Atlantic Ave.
5th Ave wins again!!!
Sell two bedrooms in Manhattan to get 2 bedrooms in Brooklyn?
REally?
Th broker is kinda cute, no?
