House of the Day: 40 2nd Place
Optimism knows no bounds in Carroll Gardens. Already in this young year we’ve chronicled two listings that have come out of the box at over $3 million. (One of them, 78 3rd Place appears to have been yanked reduced to $2,950,000 in the wake of 250+ comments mocking the ridiculousness of asking $3,495,000 for the…

Optimism knows no bounds in Carroll Gardens. Already in this young year we’ve chronicled two listings that have come out of the box at over $3 million. (One of them, 78 3rd Place appears to have been
yanked reduced to $2,950,000 in the wake of 250+ comments mocking the ridiculousness of asking $3,495,000 for the 3,100-square-foot pad.) Today’s house of the day at 40 2nd Place is slightly less ambitious at $2,800,000. Still, at less than 16 feet wide and sporting a renovation that feels too “new” looking in that suburban kind of way, we’re not holding our breath about this one getting anywhere close to ask either. For what it’s worth, the 2,300-square-foot house last sold in 2004 for $1,700,000.

See…that’s the thing, the What…
We DO love our houses. I think that’s why most of your crap falls on deaf ears.
You aren’t talking to 60redbricksplitlevel.com
You are talking to people who specifically and feverishly LOVE brownstones.
I could only be lucky enough to live in mine for the rest of my life.
You have some valid points. You just don’t have the right audience.
I’ll pass on the brie, just point me towards the fondue. I brought my own toast points!
I don’t give a rat’s ass what it is worth next year because I have a house and I’m not moving anywhere because I like where I live. If I were to move and prices halved then I’d be buying something cheaper anyway.
Yeah, but Bed Stuy is weak. Tiny Cup and what else?
The only “gossip” is that the bubble has burst, the whole thing is fucked and hope you like your house because it’ll be worth half in a year’s time. Typical anti-anger-asshat.
The What
Some day this war’s gonna end…
Call it “Brontosaurus” or call it “Apatosaurus,” but don’t call it a mammal.
Speaking of species that have faced or are facing extinction, how are the Brokersauruses in the audience doing tonight?
Or should that be Brokersauri?
And yes, I’d love some brie, thank you.
Hello – you’d get much more in Bed Stuy than this house (lovely as it is) – here endeth the lesson!
Maybe Corcoran thinks that if people actually pay these prices it will make it easier for people to swallow the 1.2-1.3 million price tag on the new condos located on 3rd Pl. and the subway tracks that Corcoran is marketing.
People come here to gossip about real estate in Brownstone Brooklyn. If you come here to blow off steam and mock morons you truly need to get out more angry unsettled person.
