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.

What are the CCs for this place???? And the taxes?? I know, I know, if i have to ask then I can’t afford it.
I can’t.
Infinite:
Didn’t you just do THE EXACT SAME THING!!???
If you didn’t like my post, IGNORE IT!
11217, must you petulantly reply to every single post you dislike. Learn to ignore.
I’m fascinated by what kind of lifestyle people like this must live. What the hell do they talk about/find in their email/think about? I wish the details of buyers was the sport of these discussions rather than the number of baths.
Yes, 11217, anybody who’s a “finance guy” these days surely is spending the public’s TARP money for himself.
The article says he founded an investment management company. They are not classified as “too big to fail” and did not receive TARP money.
I too have no children and pay school taxes!!!!
“I guarantee that apartment was bought with yours and my bail out tax dollars”
You know what…these comments are starting to get really annoying. Yes, maybe he DID earn it. That is probably more likely than that he is paying for it with your bail out dollars…whatever the hell that means, since most people on here are paying less taxes than they were a year ago.
In the same vein of comments:
I hope YOUR children are enjoying their education that this single person who doesn’t want kids is helping pay for.
I hope that house which caught on fire is enjoying the tax dollars I’m providing to the fire department to save their lives and home…
And the list goes on…
Hardly a day trader, Minard.
Dave, it sounds to me that you are what used to be known as a Day Trader. In that case, you should never rule out the possiblity of driving a cab or being a chauffeur at some point in the future.
Pride cometh before the fall.
That’s cool. I really like this building a lot.
I was looking at Streeteasy a lot yesterday and A TON of stuff has gone to contract in the last 2 weeks.
I noticed probably 4 or 5 townhouses in Park Slope go to contract the last week of January.
I guarantee that apartment was bought with yours and my bail out tax dollars
