House of the Day: 52 South Oxford Street
Um, no. An unrenovated SRO, five stories or not, on South Oxford Street for $2,500,000 in this market? Don’t think so. There’s some nice detail left and, according to the listing, 6,000 square feet of space, but given the headaches and delays associated with the SRO status and the time value of money, we think…

Dave, my point was that if you can wax poetic about how you think the suburbs and the people who live in them are of a lower order than those who live in brownstone Brooklyn (which is what your post implied) then I can spout off about how some people might actually prefer the suburbs to bed stuy.
I live in Brooklyn in a brownstone that I own, but that really has nothing to do with anything.
never knew there was a monitor for censoring in a blog
you must be new…the actual discussion of this property and its status as an SRO was well worn out about 20 posts ago…I’ve got all my trades in for the day, the market’s closing in 15 minutes so its just kick back time.
As for my last 2 posts, the one about the burbs was for fun. The one just above was trying to teach some of these posters how to use correct logic and reasoning. It is a blog though, so i’m not going to harp on grammar or spelling…unless of course the sentence makes no sense whatsoever…as is often the case.
whoa dave. time to take it down a notch. this is a BLOG. relaxxxxxx.
3:27 I know what I think is nicer in the same way that you know what its like to live in the suburbs!!
The seconfdpart of the statementimplies that I don’t really know what its like to live in the suburbs (which is not true by the way). And from that part of the statement one can only conclude from the first half of the statement that you really DON’T know what is nicer. Never took a logic course in college??? Ever even go to college?
To start a more civil discussion, where do you live??
I commuted for a while and actually I didn’t mind it. it was kind of nice. I would prefer to buy a brownstone in Park Slope or Carrol Gardens than a house in the burbs, but financially, I can’t dream of it.
Some of the towns in Nassau County are kinda cute. Prices are really soft there now too. So, anyway, not all of us were lucky enough to buy ten years ago. Today the prices in the brownstone neibs are out of control.

what does “a nicer mean?”
and how the hell would you know??
Sounds a nicer than bed stuy.
