Pretty brisk business in the brownstone neighborhoods and a head-scratcher in Manhattan Beach.
1. COBBLE HILL $3,950,000
13 Tompkins Place GMAP (left)
This 4,100-sf townhouse was originally listed for $4.5 million in February, according to StreetEasy. Asking dropped by a quarter mil about 5 months ago. House has two units, one of which is a 5-bedroom triplex. Deed recorded 9/02.
2. MANHATTAN BEACH $3,050,000
150 Hastings Street GMAP (right)
3,532-sf house on a 6,000-sf lot half a block from Manhattan Beach Park. Property Shark records show it last traded for $800,000 in 2005—quite the meteoric appreciation.
3. BOERUM HILL $2,700,000
253 Dean Street Street GMAP
20 ft x 42 ft townhouse with an owner’s triplex and rental unit. The property sold quickly: It was listed for $2.495 million in late May. The Los Angeles-based person who signed as a trustee for the purchase has the same name as someone who’s reportedly dating a star of the TV show “Grey’s Anatomy.” Coincidence? Deed recorded 9/03.
4. CLINTON HILL $1,895,000
298 Lafayette Avenue GMAP
3,496-ft, 2-family house priced at $1.995 million when it was an Open House Pick this May. Deed recorded 9/03.
5. CARROLL GARDENS $1,830,000
16 4th Place, Unit 1 GMAP
Triplex condo in a 19th century townhouse. Listed in April for a hair above the closing price, according to StreetEasy. Deed recorded 9/02.

I think the what should be banned. Refusal of service in a restaurant (or in this case blog) is every bit as American as free speech.
No shoes
No shirt
No manners
No service
“7&5, if I didn’t know how markets work, I wouldn’t be watching them, would I? ”
Is this now the standard for understanding stock markets?! You know the market because you’re watching? Oh man! This is the same type of nonsense that leads people to believe that a know nothing homophobe from a lowly populated state can govern the entire US.
Brownstoner,
I wanted to read some comments on the Manhattan Beach & Clinton Hill properties.
I normally ignore the WHAT et al but today’s amount of WHAT related postings is beyond ridiculous. How many posts am I forced to skip through because they are all related to WHAT drivel? On this thread alone 45+++ and counting.
I agree, Brownstoner is an open forum and everyone who is registered should be able to post their opinions or thoughts.
However, Brownstoner should seriously consider limiting the amount of comments per day/per user/per subject thread.
If a user wants to post more or wants to get into a debate with several other users ~ then move it to a private forum/thread that can easily be ignored by the majority of readers.
Also, I am not againt using vulgarity to make a point but come on….. enough is enough , every other word is asshat, assfuck, fisting, etc.
I can not be the only one who finds this offensive, annoying and distracting
denton…what 7&5 talks about are not markets….its speculative crap shooting. Not saying there’s anything wrong with it. It’s like trading Lehman today between $9 and $10 and back again!!!
And like I say, if it’s easy money, no one would miss it!!!
7&5, if I didn’t know how markets work, I wouldn’t be watching them, would I? Sorry to hear you missed some easy money. Oh well, there’s always tomorrow.
Better make it the 17th to be on the safe side.
wasder, did DOWhat really believe we actually want to socialize with him?? Damn, he really IS delusional! But we’re all still on for October 16 drinks at Union Hall.
Here it is with the date and time:
“I say in about 90 days all hell is going to break lose. The crash will be very very bad. Then you will here from me in a big way. When I post something like this: I love the smell… There will be no refuting any of my arguments!
The What (Tick.. Tick.. Tick..)
Someday this war is gonna end…

troll, since DOWhat will never admit to it, I’m happy to present it here, straight from the asshat’s mouth:

TWAT–The deal was a complete collapse of our banking system by October 16th we buy you drinks (from the grave because apparently we will be dead by then). If a complete collapse of our banking system does not happen by October 16th you buy us drinks. Don’t tell me you are reneging on your promises and being inconsistent?
Twat–if you seriously think I want to have a drink with you you are more pathetic than I thought. I am merely trying to point out what an idiot you are in the starkest terms possible.
