House of the Day: 276 Berkeley Place
This knock-your-socks-off mansion at 276 Berkeley Place in Park Slope was on the market back in 2006 for $4,250,000 but never sold. Now the 36-foot-wide Romanesque Revival house, which is full of drool-worthy historic detail, is back on again—this time for $4,200,000. Given that it’s 9,000 square feet and 11 bedrooms, the price doesn’t seem…

I’m one block from Montauk Club as well…
And I can ALMOST see the HOTD from my place…
🙂
11217, if you like classical the LSO is in town 10/21-10/25 at LC, I hear they’re having trouble selling tickets. I’m never disapointed by them.
She likes Blue Ribbon and Oshima better as well. She’s not obsessive about the Toro like I am.
Yamato is a smorgasboard of Asian employees. The sushi chefs are from Fujian (where my Chines bf is from) and the waitstaff is from Malaysia, Bhutan and a few other places. But the owners are Japanese.
I went into Oshima and asked them in Japanese for the business card and they looked at me like I had 2 heads because they too were Chinese.
She lives on the block just after the Montauk Club.
In the neighborhood, my favorites in order are:
Blue Ribbon Sushi
Oshima
Taro sushi
Sounds like I should give Yamato another shot. I think I partially didn’t like it because it’s next to Starbucks, which if I could rub a geenie and make a wish, it would be to put them out of business. Not really, but I have bad feelings towards them and that block is literally THE most filled with strollers of any in PS.
Which ones are your favorite?? They must have Toro or i won’t go.
11217, the sushi is very good as well as the appetizers. Also, the sushi portions are large. it’s owned by a Japanese, not a some other people and that makes a big difference. She likes the smaller one a block or so up the street. I like Yamato primarily for the sushi portions and they ALWAYS have Toro.
Hey Dave,
What did you think of Yamato? It’s not my favorite Japanese place in the neighborhood (not even top 3) and I’m surprised that people who have such seemingly lovely taste would take you there. 🙂
Woah, 11217, sounds beautiful. I haven’t been there in a while, my music budget is toast these days. I’ll have to make it a destination soon. Thanks for the update.
Jester, I learned more vocabulary from comics than from books. I had a very impressive collection from between about 1970 and 1986. Unfortunately, the earlier end of the spectrum, the more valuable pieces, are long gone. My Mom left them all upstate when she moved the household back to NYC. I didn’t know until it was too late.
I think my colleague was one of the first people to pay over $1MM for an Eigth Ave house. I was in it last week…totally spectacular…about 8,000 sq ft I think and a roof deck with unobstructed views of all of Manhattan including the Staue of Liberty.
BTW, each of the original bathrooms had ensuite baths. It was built in 1905.
