PS house is clean but tinsy. No backyard, drop down ceilings and an old kitchen on garden level. Needs some work. $1.050K???? might be a stretch.
So they packed it all up and moved to Clintonee . . .
Hills, that is, movie stars, etc.
Gee, maybe we’ve got something here. A sitcom in which one of the old Greenpoint families (same rowhouse for 50 years) finds oil under their backyard, sells the property to the oil companies and uses the cash to buy a beautiful Clinton Hill brownstone. Hi-jinks ensue as they interact with their rich and famous neighbors.
Crown Heights price: WTF?
The PS place sounded like a pretty good deal until I realized that it is only 35 feet deep on a 50-foot lot.
The prospect house has been on the market for at least 6 months, it’s amazing, but they’re gonna need a serious glue sniffer to pay that price in CH.
Maybe they can give everyone at the open house a huff.
If they get this price, my place is going on the market the next day.
They’re trying to make it sound more upscale, like Beverly Hill.
chubb rock rapped about that clinton hill block in an early 90s billboard charting jam. the clinton hill w/ an s thing is an old issue. i remember hearing this in the 70s from people born and raised there.
Maybe the realtors want to goose the value of properties in neighborhing areas, so they make us think there is more than one Clinton Hill, as in “Bushwick, yeah, that’s one of the Clinton Hills; Bed-Stuy is a Clinton Hill; Ocean Hill, that’s a Clinton Hill, too, etc.” Rome was supposedly built on seven hills, why not Clinton Hill?
Why do agents insist on “Clinton Hills” in their listings? I mean, you’re selling something for over a mil, why not try to get at least the name of the community right? And while they seem to insist on adding an “s” to Clinton Hill, it makes no sense. Some places they seem to get right, but an added “s” would be even more accurate. Take for example Park Slope. They could easily refer to it as Park Slopes. But they never ever do. I mean, it’s true isn’t it? Park Slope slopes. Seems to me Clinton is just on one hill, but it doesn’t “hills.” Park Slope definately slopes though.
