When 448 6th Street hit the market with Brown Harris Stevens last October we drooled over its interiors and unusual facade but wondered whether the asking price of $2,825,000. It turns out it was. By quite a bit. Corcoran took over the gig in April and relaunched the listing with a price tag of $2,299,000; since then there have been a couple of small price cuts, including one yesterday, that have brought the price down to $2,149,000. We have to think that this is getting close to a market-clearing price. The only snag we can think of, besides the small matter of the global financial meltdown, is that the brownstone is only 17 feet wide.

  1. Miss Muffet, my math is wrong above. The drop you suggest is 30 percent, not 300 percent. It’s very reasonable to think Park Slope could have drops of 30 percent over the next year or two. Maybe not this particular house, but in general. I agree with your post.

  2. Oh, wait. That border must have covered the two rooms with the wall in the middle just to the right of the stairs. I guess.

    OK. Too many posts in a row . .. At least I can talk to myself.

  3. About the walls/floors — the right post of the staircase is right in the middle of the border on the floor. I don’t get where the wall would have been.

    (If only one of my questions gets answered, please answer the Sarah’s Vagina one.)

  4. “Nomi…you never took me up on my invitation to come over to the darkside of the OT.”

    Right. These threads are dark enough.

    “However, most of us there have real lives after we leave work and are not posting in the evening. You need to get out more. Come to the next friends of Brownstoner get together.”

    I do need to get out more. But who would keep the Internet interesting while I’m out?

    There’s so much info to process that we make decisions quickly and then have a fair amount of “down time.”

    Can anyone –in finance or out –make head or tails of this statement?
