Another classic Park Slope beauty, 212 8th Avenue just hit the market this week. It’s everything you would expect, from the parquet to the mahogany to the pier mirrors. It will be very interesting to see how the price tag of $2,995,000 flies in this market. It wouldn’t have cut the mustard a few months ago, we suspect, but psychology is definitely a little better right now so we shall see. We bet it’ll go for more like $2,750,000 but we shall see.

  1. First he falls for this…

  2. “Presumably this is because the top 5% percent makes more than the lower 90%. When you earn as much as the non tax paying people perhaps you will understand.”

    Yes, thats the math, and the point is who actually paid the taxes now being doled out.

    Of course, you know me bklpebe, you know that I was born with a silver spoon in my mouth, never had to claim welfare and didn’t grow up in a housing project so I “can understand”.

    Wait, thats not me. I was born to two parents who didn’t finish school, I grew up until the age of 10 in a house that didn’t have an inside toilet, let alone a bathroom, we then moved to hi-rise government housing (called projects in this country) were we remained for the rest of my years living with my parents, I had a period of unemployment for nearly a year right out of school and lived hand to mouth, I then worked and worked and worked like everyone else and didn’t break the 25K barrier until I switched careers in 2001. Nevertheless, I still understand math.

  3. “Good for them, but what about ordinary working families who pay taxes that get used to fund TARP? Why are they getting priced out of desirable neighborhoods by wall street crooks?”

    yawn. more drivel having nothing to do with the question posed in the post. if you had money or a big house in a desirable neighborhood would you be a crook? (that’s a rhetorical question, fwiw)
