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.

  1. 12:00 – it’s people like you who won’t ever get a great deal on a house in NYC (maybe you’re rich enough not to need one) It is SO easy to put a cornice on a building and replace the windows, which is ALL that is necessary to completely transform the look of the Garfield house.

  2. I totally disagree – the garfield home sold for $330 per square foot – simply because of some easily fixable layout issues – whoever bought that house got a great deal.

  3. The asking price on the Garfield Place house was outrageous. It sold for a fair price.

    Re: St. Marks – This is the house that a few morons said wouldn’t sell because “mulit millionaires don’t want to have to take their shoes off at an open house”

    OH REALLY?? One didn’t mind.

    Re: 1st Street – not surprised it went over ask. gorgeous house and block.
