A 10% price reduction might not sound like all that much, but when the original asking price was $8,750,000, as in the case of 155 Warren Street, it translates into “savings” of $875,000. Judging from the 134 comments this generated as a House of the Day in October, however, we’re guessing that popular opinion will still be that the new number of $7,875,000 is still a pie-in-the-sky price. Given that it’s still coming in at over $1,100 a foot, we’d tend to agree.

  1. Hey guest at 2:04 (aka David Rogers, Elliman broker),

    Are intent on infecting absolutely every thread on Brownstoner? I say it again: Take your spam and shove it where the sun doesn’t shine!

  2. Seriously this price reduction is a joke. If you weren’t interested in the property at $8.75m then you’re still not at $7.875m. Sure there is some buildable FAR at the rear which backs onto Verandah Place and the property is pretty unique in that it does offer garaged parking and it is in a great neighborhood. Without the additional 25 x 50 plot of land that houses the garage (er … I mean carriage house) then the house on Warren is worth $4m tops and probably somewhere around $3.5m. I really fail to see the how the garage doubles the value but if they justify it by it’s uniqueness then they should not advertise it publicly and quietly market it to a Captain of Industry/HedgeFund/Bank or Hollywood star. At least then they’ll escape the derision that they received back in October and continue to receive now.
