Hot damn. Laurels for the priciest condo sale ever in Brooklyn have just been stripped from Dumbo’s One Main Street and handed over to One Brooklyn Bridge Park. The Times says a humble, 9,486-square-foot triplex at 1BBP (actually five units rolled into one) sold for $8.495 million to a finance guy. “Three of the units, on the building’s 11th and 12th floors, had already been combined by a previous buyer who backed out of the deal after the Lehman Brothers collapse in 2008. That buyer was forced to walk away from a deposit of more than $600,000. ‘The original buyers had created a very luxe three-bedroom five-bath apartment with a huge living and dining space,’ said Highlyann Krasnow, the sales director for One Brooklyn Bridge. It was about 4,200 square feet. ‘But this buyer wanted even more square footage, she said. The most expensive condo to sell in Brooklyn prior to this was a $7 million spread at One Main.

units facing the water deserve premo pricing. facing the bqe? only suckers would pay massive price tag and huge condo fee & ppty tax to live there
Am I the only one who thinks a .5 mile walk to pretty much every train isn’t that bad? What, does everyone on here live ontop of the subway?
No, I understand it quite well, DIBS. This is the average Brooklyn buyer and the market has bottomed!!!

One out of two for you is progress, BHO.
This building is remarkable. I have been saying that for a year while others complain about the uphill walk on Joralemon, the BQE, too many old folks in Brooklyn Heights, yadda yadda. Dumb stuff.
If I was looking for a place to live, I would live here, in an apartment with a harbor view, it would be very nice.
“what is rental value of this apt?”
8,495,000/(10×12) = apparently over seventy grand a month!
“BHO won’t be able to understand this at all.”

“Either it was criminal or it was not!!! Apparently, it was not.”
Then why does Cuomo’s name keep popping up?
“I bet I can sneak into the dude’s bad then eat & sleep in his cellar, etc. and he would know”
Chill, bro’ man.
