House of the Day: 106 Lincoln Place
Except for the recessed lighting on the parlor floor (and the lack of some crown moldings), the brownstone at 106 Lincoln Place in Park Slope is looking pretty tasty. (The single-family house is one of six in a row designed by Brooklyn architect F. B. Langston in the late 1880s.) There’s some drool-worthy woodwork and…

Except for the recessed lighting on the parlor floor (and the lack of some crown moldings), the brownstone at 106 Lincoln Place in Park Slope is looking pretty tasty. (The single-family house is one of six in a row designed by Brooklyn architect F. B. Langston in the late 1880s.) There’s some drool-worthy woodwork and a permanent parking space to boot. The price of $3,150,000 feels pretty 2007 to us but it’s certainly not impossible for something like this in move-in condition.

Turn off that newfangled recessed lighting in here! It’s so bright that I can’t find my buggy whip.
A better buy is this house a couple of blocks away on Sterling Place, and closer to the trains, for a tad under $3 mil. Wider and in better condition with more details and woodwork. http://www.prudentialelliman.com/Listings.aspx?ListingID=931051&rentalperiod=&SearchType=houses&Region=NYC

You might want to let the people who designed the new Gucci Flagship store that recessed lighting is out.
Defintely worth every penny plus some. $3.5mm in a bidding war

As long as the recessed lighting is fueled by whale oil, I’m OK with it.
Will you people stop comparing your wallet size to folks with some serious cash!!

what the heck is wrong with recessed lighting??? you are starting to sound like a broken record – as if that would stop anyone from buying a home. it provides good luminescence, looks just fine in the kitchen, and doesn’t take away from detail. what more do you want?
recessed lighting is 1970s, not contemporary
