2. BROOKLYN HEIGHTS $2,200,000$4,000,000
160 Henry Street, PH GMAP (right)
When this 3,000-square-foot penthouse was a Co-op of the Day in March, it was listed for $4.25 million. Closed on 9/21/09; deed recorded on 9/25/09.
3. BROOKLYN HEIGHTS $3,150,000
1 Pierrepont Street, #8A GMAP
Sure, $3 million+ is a pretty penny, but the sale price for this sprawling co-op seems low given the prestige of the building and its asking price. (We’ve got a call into Brown Harris, which brokered the sale, to find out whether there was behind-the-scenes action not reflected in the public records sale price, and we’ll update this if they get back to us.) The 10-room co-op’s been on the market since last year, and the initial ask was $6,250,000, which was later reduced to $5,500,000. The reader widget guess on it clocked in at $4,764,268. Closed on 9/21/09; deed recorded on 9/24/09.
4. PROSPECT HEIGHTS $2,545,625
On Prospect Park, Unit 4F GMAP
This is a 1,090-sf unit in the Meier-designed condo, according to StreetEasy. Entered into contract on 8/13/09; closed on 8/27/09; deed recorded on 9/24/09.
5. PARK SLOPE $1,570,662
520 11th Street GMAP
This South Slope townhouse was originally listed for $2.25 million last year; after not selling, it was taken off the market and re-listed for $1,640,000 this May. Entered into contract on 7/7/09; closed on 8/27/09; deed recorded on 9/23/09.

Grand Army,
Is there a website or way to buy tickets in advance for the Prospect Heights House Tour for October 18? I love these house tours.
Does anyone know when the next happy hour is? Mopar mentioned there was one coming up and I’ve never been. Can we have one in a not-too-loud place…or is the group’s recent tradition having these get-togethers in loud bars?
Thanks!
One Pierrepont is a much more prestigious building than 145 Henry. What a nice trade that was if thats’ what they were looking for.
i really hate this touchy feeley stuff.
antidope, what’s your current situation? renter, renter looking to buy, owner, owner looking to sell, etc…? you know most of our positions – ie I’m an owner looking to trade up to a house. just curious.
hug received, hug given.
i feel better.
Heh. Well, I’m done for the day. No need to up the tension levels on the site. It’s gotten a bit out of hand the past few days. Hugs all around.
good one, ds.
i’m impressed with the quality of your work today.
Hey antidope – My sense is that you run in the BS crowd, “talking out of your ass.”
can i take this one, b?
per 1) your snarkiness impedes your reading comprehension.
he never said it was definitive nor precise. he did call it data. which is more than virtually anyone else deals with around here.
per 2) that is a matter of opinion and was not addressed except obliquely as in, “if prices fall 50% then we’re all in deep doo (social issues out everyone’s wazoo)” if i may paraphrase. my sense is that you run in the mm crowd, ‘talking your book’
