House of the Day: 7543 Shore Road
Some folks got a little grumpy a couple of weeks ago when we poked some fun at a McMansion in Bay Ridge, saying we should have focused on some of the beautiful architecture in the area (and there’s plenty). Today’s House of the Day at 7543 Shore Road isn’t the finest example in the nabe,…
Some folks got a little grumpy a couple of weeks ago when we poked some fun at a McMansion in Bay Ridge, saying we should have focused on some of the beautiful architecture in the area (and there’s plenty). Today’s House of the Day at 7543 Shore Road isn’t the finest example in the nabe, but it’s got a nice feel to it, plus it’s gigantic and has water views. It ain’t cheap though! $4,200,000. Hmmmm.

Pete, you don’t live in Northern Brooklyn
People need to update their ethno-geographical stereotypes. Bay Ridge was never really an Italian bastion like Bensonhurst was, and when I’m there now what strikes me most in that regard is the large Arab-American presence. Shore Road is spectacular, but a bit of a hike to the subway and Third Avenue.
am I prissy turkey-necked? what does that mean exactly?
maybe it is flattering.
ah joe- equal opportunity offensiveness – we finally see true equality in this country.
Well now the true racism comes out. Thanks Joe. Glad you took the spotlight off my remark about the grape leaves and the Italian accent.
Italiana71- buy me that house and I’ll be forever grateful too 🙂
Insulting to both groups… my spider sense started tingling. As someone who grew up in Southern Brooklyn YES Bay Ridge is an overpriced ethnic ghetto which for me is preferable to an overpriced racial ghetto (FLAT-BUSH !) but not as much fun as a cultural ghettos of prissy turkey-necked whites like Northern Brooklyn.
I see it too Benson, but very mild today. Othertimes comments are pretty nasty if some interior is too decorated or even just mention of neighborhood of CG,gowanus canal, BRidge .
These threads are just great for exposing the hypocrisy of alot of folks on this site. These are the folks who (at least publicly) will bend their knee at the altar of “diversity”, yet love to look down their nose at various groups.
The funny thing to me is that they think they are cleverly hiding it with their pithy comments. Newsflash: it’s as plain as day, and very instructive.
