I am completely astonished by the Park Place price. I struggle to believe it is real, but if it is then I have a lot of my own words to eat. I just can’t believe someone actually paid $1.6 million for that apartment. It doesn’t make sense on so many levels.
There are 22 units in the Vermeil total, I believe….
The Vermeil has been for a sale for quite a while, yes.
But as I understand it, they’ve sold a number of units in the past few months. If there’s only 4 left, that’s not too bad.
haven’t those 4 units at the Vermeil been there for months now though?
I’m not sure about Park Place, but the inventory of any new condos or conversions in the North Slope is dwindling, it seems.
There are only 4 units left in the Vermeil, just a couple in Park Place, a few in that Lincoln Place former brothel and not much else that I can think of. Kinda slim pickings unless you want to go down to 4th Avenue area…
For someone not interested in a full brownstone, there’s really not much to pick from in terms of inventory in North Slope. Maybe that’s why prices are holding up there relatively speaking.
I am perplexed by the $1.6 million pricetag on Park Place. I had followed that apartment for a long time and it was on the market for $1,530,000 for a very long time. What would posess someone after three years on the market to approach the developer with a $1.6 million offer?
Those Park Place condos have been on the market for what seems like forever. I have to assume some of these are re-sales. Regardless, the proximity to Flatbush makes these very undesirable to me.
Not sure if anyone saw the Dyker place…but its not too pretty for a new construction…it looks like a Fedders condo…but the house version.
very good goldie!!!
