  1. I saw this place and it needed quite a bit of money to bring it back to its former glory, for starters all new plumbing and electric. Buyer would have to put $300,000 into this place plus it was only 3 houses from the BQE. Still, all in all a lovely block and neighborhood.

  2. that woodhull street house looks like a pretty good value for under a million, with a good size duplex and two rentals. interesting that it sat for that long and they had to go down that much. that might be kind of a gritty, noisy block wedged between the BQE and the tunnel. Anybody see it? Was it a wreck? Were they reaching for the 1.2M asking price, or is this what the post-bubble looks like?

  3. The other side of the BQE, sometimes called the Columbia Street Waterfront District, but I call it Left Hook is one of the greatest neighborhoods in Brooklyn. More low key than Carroll Gardens but undergoing a major renovation, Left Hook is the home of some great artists and sculptors. Also lots of kids since it is part of the PS 29 and Carroll Street School districts. It has 5 beautiful community gardens and a playground in 5 block radius, plenty of great restaurants and boutiques, amazing views of downtown manhattan and new york harbor, and a great neighborhood feel. Within a year of moving in here I know more people than I met in 5 years living in Park Slope.
