There are two houses for sale on Midwood Street between Rogers and Nostrand that might be of interest to readers. The house on the left is at 230 Midwood Street and is available through Century 21, AAA Top Stars at 718 498-2400; the house on the right is 253 Midwood Street and is available through Jamal at Apple Real Estate at 718 735 2300. Can anyone tell us what the interiors are like at either of these places? How about recent comps?

I didn’t post 11:24AM. I am pretty sure Bob Marvin hasn’t posted a number of comments ascribed to him either.
Jerk.
Don’t be silly. No one’s said anything that bad. And don’t you think it’s a little “violent” to post using only your first name?
Newsflash: the person who keeps commenting anonymously about this neighborhood being dangerous is actually a well-educated black activist who wants to stall inevitable gentification by scaring away decent people.
Sorry, I should have said “Agreed 10:22AM”…I cewrtainly do NOT agree with 10:31.
BTW, that was my last comment on this particular thread–I’m not getting into a flame war.
More dangerous than Crown Heights South, East Flatbush, and “downtown” Flatbush? Really? Would you care to define “just nuts”?
Anon. 10:05’s comment SOUNDS reasonable, but actually shows that he/she is unfamiliar with the neighborhood. Rather than being “not as safe as the areas surrounding it” PLG, like a number of brownstone neighborhoods, is bordered by areas that many consider to be LESS safe.
I wonder if Anon. 10:05 has ever been in PLG or has even looked at a map?
PLG is a special case. So far as safety is concerned, PLG occupies a ‘gray zone’–not horrible, but pretty bad and not as safe as the areas surrounding it. Whether it will get better depends on what happens to the economy in coming years. (I’d feel more confident about the economy if I didn’t think our national deficit would come back haunt us, but that’s another story.)
