  2. Every listing is unique and attract different buyers. Brownstone buyers are obviously very different people than appartment buyers, for many reasons, whether it is financial or choice or style. True brownstones on beautiful blocks are rare in Brooklyn and that’s why they catch high prices. Please don’t compare it with new developments !!!
    The Henry Browstone is 22*45*4 stories=3,960sqft. So $2.5mln is $631.31sqft. It’s still cheap for brownstone quality.

  3. 2:07, you are right that 2:01 is wrong, but losing 59,400 jobs this year concentrated in the financial sector is not good news for the city in general.

    Let’s hope it’s not that bad.

  4. 2:01: You are wrong.

    NYTIMES, MAY 20, 2008

    NEW YORK (Reuters) – An imminent recession could cost New York City 59,400 jobs between now and the middle of next year, with the profit-stricken financial sector the “epicenter” of the downturn, a new report said on Tuesday.

    This would amount to one quarter of the hiring by private employers after the 2001 recession, according to the Independent Budget Office, a fiscal monitor that serves as the city’s equivalent of the Congressional Budget Office.

    But the previous downturn, which accelerated after the September 11, 2001 attacks, will still turn out to have been more severe, as employers cut about 43 percent of jobs added in the expansion that lasted from 1993 to 2000, the report said.
