Welcome, rich neighbors! I’ll see you at the Union Market. I’ll be buying one mini-baguette. (Please stay away from Montero’s, Jalopy, Proteus Gowanus, Marietta, and Moonshine. I’m sure you will.)
Seems like BHO is on vacation in Pamplona today. But I’m sure he’ll send a postcard soon enough.
Also, The Lincoln (former brothel on 7th and Lincoln) has SOLD OUT, folks.
Sold all units during the recession.
And I recently heard that Toren is approaching the 70% sold mark.
Also, 212 8th Avenue entered contract on July 1st and 205 6th Avenue is in contract after 1 month on the market…
Those should turn up here eventually as well.
In addition to 42 Grace, 14 Garden Place and 13 Cranberry Street traded in the last few weeks. I believe 14 Garden went for around $4.5MM and 13 Cranberry was north of $6MM. Perhaps these sales will headline next week’s Biggest Sales. Doesn’t seem to be a shortage of buyers in the Heights or Cobble Hill for quality product.
why are people surprised by the strength of this thread’s sales? we’re talking about a lot of richie rich folks and of which a few decide to buy in the even fewer supply in the premo BK hoods. for these folks, it’s worth paying top $$$ just to stop spouse from nagging about a house vs. us regular joes will have to endure it for a long time.
“5 million for the grace court house is pretty amazing. is that a sure thing?”
Yes.

wowee, the heights and cobble hill are hot!
I agree with 11207 that new retail is finally catching up with the times in the brownstone belt. I expect a major metamorphosis of Fulton mall in the coming years once all the new towers get filled and albee square gets redone.

In other words, some people in Manhattan complain that Brooklyn is “too far”.
As more things arrive, they will no longer be “too far” because all the things they want will be close by, just as they are in Manhattan. And dare I say, Brooklyn seems to be getting more of the interesting stuff lately as Time Out and New York Mag’s list of the best of restaurants and bars now seem to be more Brooklyn centric than Manhattan. That recent Cheap Eats list that New York Mag did was like 75% Brooklyn establishments.
