Houses of the Day: Head-to-Head in The Slope
When 590 2nd Street (right) hit the market three months ago for $3,200,000, we thought it had a pretty good shot at finding a buyer. Apparently not, as the price was just cut to $2,995,000. This, coincidentally, is the same asking price as a new Brown Harris Stevens listings in The Slope, 130 Lincoln Place…
When 590 2nd Street (right) hit the market three months ago for $3,200,000, we thought it had a pretty good shot at finding a buyer. Apparently not, as the price was just cut to $2,995,000. This, coincidentally, is the same asking price as a new Brown Harris Stevens listings in The Slope, 130 Lincoln Place (left). Both houses are two-family, four-story brownstones, though the 2nd Street house is slightly larger, according to PropertyShark. It also gets the benefit of the doubt when it comes to interiors since the Lincoln Place listing is lacking in the photo department. Which do you think has a better chance of selling at this price?

House of the Day: 590 2nd Street [Brownstoner]
5:01…trust me…the parents at ps. 321 would be much more annoyed by you and your underachieving crotchfruit.
I went to a top public school in a very wealthy community, 5:04, and ALL the kids were on drugs.
It’s the parents who keep kids off drugs not the schools.
I know little timmy. Cool dood. Rolls a great spliff.
anyone who sends their kids to private school does so out of selfishness.
it’s the PARENTS who don’t want to deal with public school. has nothing to do with the kids.
they think that way little timmy will be more likely to go to harvard.
when actually it means little timmy will probably end up coked up at the age of 16.
So don’t send your kids to private school, 4:51. Totally your decision and it’s okay.
Why do all you insecure competitive yuppie parents need everyone to do the exact same thing you do in order to feel good about it?
No seriously, why?
It’s your child and you get to make these decisions and it’s nobody’s place to judge you. The more I see these nasty competitive catfights over which public school is better, the more I do want to send my child to private school, frankly. I worry what kind of parents are at PS 321 and I know I’d be utterly annoyed with them! And avoiding the PTA meetings.
I think if they move the houses out of Park Slope they would sell in a Brooklyn minute.
Oh jeeze, this just keeps getting better. You’re about shin deep.
enough about private and public schools now, lets get back to the houses. how much do you think they will have to cut the prices to get them moving?
I bet there are far more people buying brownstones at this price who do not make as much as $600K a year but did own a property in Manhattan for 5-10 years and now they’re trading up. It’s hard to see any business advisor telling someone it’s a good idea to take out a $2 million mortgage on a $3 million house, as the person above was suggesting he’d do.
