House of the Day: 282 Park Place
We’ll be really interested to see what this new brownstone listing at 282 Park Place ends up selling for. We really like these brownstone blocks of Prospect Heights—they’re not quite as established (read: fancified) as the blocks on the other side of Flatbush but as a result they’re also a little cooler in our opinion….

(We’re not the only ones who think so—right, Maggie and Peter?) This particular house has lots of details and is configured nicely into am upper triplex with garden rental, as most potential buyers will want it. It’s also got lots of original details. Eighteen months ago we suspect this would have been asking $2,250,000. It just came to market, however, with a price tag of $1,799,000. Interesting indeed.

Oh, well isn’t that pleasant.

Mimizuka….

Very similar… just from Antiquity and a bucket is far less pretentious.
(However, they still have a bucket of penises with no homes)

Is that the same as a “bowl of dicks?”
My nose is great – just crooked. But then again, I’m not really a New Yorker. The Sphinx looks OK without a nose and it would be strange to put it back on. Though, I am glad the Vatican glued back on most of the pee pees on their statues that were previously snapped off. (However, they still have a bucket of penises with no homes)

Very true. Once upon a time, I mentioned to a co-worker that one of the things I liked about Brooklyn was the relatively quiet. She blinked, gave me a blankish stare, and then asked, “Really, you want quiet?”
I’ve been to Boise. I wouldn’t have made the comparison if I hadn’t seen it.
It’s a nice enough place for some.
And most New Yorkers are not really in love with the size of their nose to begin with. 🙂
Pigeon, most of the Manhattan UES and UWS townhouses in the sixties all look like that. They look very nice.
