Fuck The What.
New poster, but seems like above is a silly argument. It is a given that some people find a longer walk to the subway a problem and it eliminates them from the pool of potential buyers. For others, like 1:49pm above, location is much more important than the potential inconvenience of having a long walk. Each buyer has to decide for himself what the important factors are.
The only question is whether a long subway walk should mean a lower price. Clearly this is one of many factors that has the potential to lower the price, and it just depends if the other positives on the apartment (size, location, etc.) raise it again. But there’s no point in arguing whether a long subway walk is personally a problem for anyone, since it will be for some, and not for others.
I think the section of Lafayette Ave that the Clinton Hill place on is just gorgeous. And of course Clinton Ave. itself is spectacular.
This apartment is half a block from the G train. While the G train is a PITA off hours, during morning and evening rush it runs quite frequently and it’s a very short ride (two stops) to Hoyt St. where you catch the A train directly across the platform to get into Manhattan. Also, the B38 bus runs on DeKalb/Lafayette with extreme frequency, taking you to Flatbush in a couple of minutes, where you can catch multiple lines at the DeKalb station.
As for walking — well, aren’t many of us too fat? Doesn’t seem like a bad thing to have a 10 min. walk to and from Atlantic Station (multiple subway lines) built into your commute. If it would even take 10 minutes — it’s all of 11 blocks.
10 minutes to a subway is a HUGE amount of time.
That’s why York Avenue real estate is so much cheaper than anything near Park/Lexington/3rd Avenue.
Duh.
To the poster who said something about lazy….I’d rather be lazy than an ignorant moron.
I made the 10-minute comment…not laziness, but i have lived within a minute of an express stop on the UWS. If I lived 10 minutes away (and I think the Clinton Hill place might be more if you’re not a fast walker) it would take me an extra 18 minutes a day to get to work…or 1 hr 40 minutes a week…etc. etc. If you don’t think commute time is a factor in real estate, you’re nuts.
