524-3rd-Street-Brooklyn-0308.jpg
This block of 3rd Street— between 7th and 8th Avenues— is lovely and the houses are priced accordingly. Last summer, 527 3rd Street sold for $3,225,000 (less than its original list price of $3,400,000). Now the limestone at 524 3rd Street is on the market for $3,200,000. The interior is probably nicer than the drab photos reveal. There’s nice original detail and the kitchens and bathrooms appear to have been updated recently (as have mechanicals). The house has a total of about 3,700 square feet, but 1/4 of that is virtually subterranean so it’s hard to say whether overall it deserves to be priced at almost $900 a foot. Guess the market will provide the answer to that one.

    – Park Slope is elitist
    – If you’re paying this much, you can do private school anyway
    – I am not an elitist, so I will move to another neighborhood. And then send my kids the hell away to private school so they don’t have to be in the local hellhole with those scary neighbor kids.
    -That last part does not count as elitism
