Last Week's Biggest Sales
Last week three of the priciest residential sales were in the Slope, though each one tells a slightly different story: 1st Street went for a whole lot more than ask; Garfield Place changed hands for quite a bit less than its original price tag, $2.5 mil; and 60 St. Marks closed $200K shy of ask….

“What’s up with the Gravesend ‘house’? Where’s Gravesend? and why so much?”
One word – SYNAGOGUE. No?
Some sucker really overpaid for 60 St. Marks Ave. Shabby block, mediocre house. Crazy.
Regarding 536 1st Street: it was NOT on the market for 15 months. It sold for $3.2 million on 2/16/2007, and was flipped one year later for the price of $3.6 million listed above.
And this second sale was not on the open market as far as I know, since I never saw this listing and I’ve been looking for houses in the Slope since July 2007.
“shitshow”
Brilliant, 12:19. Patent pending?
hey ‘the what’-
I’ll put up with your apocalyptic bullshit and ‘wait till the end of the year’ like you said, if you promise to apologize for all your horseshit when we’re all still here in our houses and the market is still trundling along at single digit growth in January ’09.
Gravesend (Dutch for Count’s sands) is one of the original Dutch settlements on Long Island. It is way the heck down by the bay. It is home to a thriving Syrian Jewish community. Take a look at some of the new houses down there. It is like driving through the swanky parts of Las Vegas. The property is worth a lot. The old houses are tear-downs.
What’s up with the Gravesend ‘house’? Where’s Gravesend? and why so much?
