House of the Day: 439 East 19th Street
We’re liking the look of this single-family house at 439 East 19th Street in Ditmas Park—the original built-ins and coffered ceilings are stunning. The 2,800-square-foot house changed hands in 2002 for $775,000 and just hit the market now for $1,249,000. That comes out to about $450 per square foot, less than what this house a…

Brooklyn is great but I hate people herein advertising it as a great middle income (<300K) family town
Ty, shouldn’t be off trying to court Park Sloper’s daughter at Mimi’s hummus or something? 🙂
Brooklyn is made up of middle class people. The average income for Brooklyn is like 40K a year.
Brownstone Brooklyn (of which this blog focuses on) makes up 10% of the housing stock in Brooklyn (at most), so you seem to be focusing on the wrong crowd. There is a world of Brooklyn out there perfect for those of middle class means. And those of us who live in small spaces on middle class incomes interspersed with those who are much more well off. And people all around who are struggling to get by.
That’s the beauty of Brooklyn!
You either make it work or you don’t. You don’t piss all over it because it’s not exactly what you want it to be.
Watch you fucking language, 11217. 🙂
You’re looking to move to Brooklyn??
Why are you shitting all over it then?
Are you still dizzy from your last subway ride…?
but i can’t see why a middle class family would like to
right tybur my bad 43min
11217: i explained in another thread–i am looking to move to brooklyn
p.s. I think you are doing more harm than good for your cause, Maplewood. Your closed-minded nature has reminded me EXACTLY what I hated about the suburbs. Most of us are here because we LOVE where we live. You are here to HATE where everyone else lives. Not really very conducive for much of anything.
And you’re certainly not giving Maplewood a very good name (assuming it had one before this conversation).
Can someone please explain to me why someone (MaplewoodGuy) would spend time on a blog about brownstones and Brooklyn, when he seems not to care about the former, and acts as if he despises the latter…?
Please tell us broker from Maplewood why you troll this site telling people they are wrong to want to live in Brooklyn on a website devoted to people who love it.
Do you see anything slightly off kilter (and I’m being kind) about that at all?
