House of the Day: 466 5th Street
We like the look and feel of 466 5th Street, a four-story house within a gurney’s-roll from New York Methodist hospital. Except for the kitchen, which we’re not loving (just say no to granite!), the house has all the look and feel of an old Italianate brownstone, from the marble mantles to the pocket shutters….

Except for the kitchen, which we’re not loving (just say no to granite!), the house has all the look and feel of an old Italianate brownstone, from the marble mantles to the pocket shutters. Currently configured as a lower owner’s duplex topped by two floor-through rentals, the house has been in the same family for at least 20 years. Now that it’s time to cash out, the owners are looking to get $2,200,000. Think they will?

My kid countertop can kick your kid granite’s ass all the way to PS 321.
I actually think most high schoolers in NYC are ahead of the suburban kids. By high school they’ve already seen it all. They’ve done enough drugs to fill up a Chevy Yukon by the 8th grade.
What we have here at John Jay are kids who need some direction and support.
Berading them for having to go to school in a mostly white, wealthy neighborhood to then go home at 3:30 back to the projects would make you a little angry too…
I went to a wealthy 90210 style suburban high school too, and there were SO many drugs there. This was in the 80’s. Drugs are even more widespread now. Parents just have no clue.
they only take over the streets, if you allow them to, 5:14.
i’m so sick of everyone playing the victim to a bunch of kids.
if it’s such a concern for those that live nearby, how about you do something about it?
i remember my 90210 like suburban high school where all the kids were smoking dope in the parking lots and on the neighbors front lawns.
that’s what kids do.
if you think these kids are acting abnormally inappropriate, call 311 or talk to the school.
what kind of countertops do they have in John Jay?
I live near 51, and it’s true, at dismissal (and lunch) it’s basically “Hellions on Parade.” Why they let those kids out for lunch I will NEVER know. I guess the cafeteria isn’t big enough? Or is it just an easy way to not deal with the problem of controlling a lunchroom? I’m sure the local eateries are good with it, since they make $$ off these kids… but for anyone who has to endure their street-take-over antics, it’s highly lame.
Anything else to talk about than the countertops?
The beautiful garden perhaps?
The nice, spacious size?
The perfect location?
Or are you all that dimwitted to talk for 100 comments about which countertop stains more?
Silestone, how about Casearstone.
I want my whole kitchen to be carved out of one giant piece of soapstone.
