But Park SLope is just better and will hold up better in this downturn.
Maybe it’s Gabby at 4:51 trying to bring this thread up to over 200 posts by going off topic onto a heated subject as the thread fizzled down. Nobody was talking about schools.
Actually I was not involved in the suburbs debate.
Nooooo, 4:51!
This was actually an interesting conversation before a mommy had to make it all about the schools.
The public school debate has been discussed to death. Done, over, boring. Put your kid where you want. Nobody is allowed to judge you. It’s your decision.
Actually 4:43, I am a hostile lunatic homeowner.
“The schools in PS are better than pretty much any other area of Brooklyn, so if you find a cheaper place in another neighborhood, you are going to have to use private school anyway.”
Another load of Park Slope crock just to try to pump real estate! There are lots of great public schools all over Brooklyn, in Cobble Hill, Carroll Gardens, Windsor Terrace, Williamsburg, Greenpoint, Sunset Park and the list goes on. The only school that might claim that it is a step above the rest is PS 321, which is way overcrowded. And PS 29 rivals 321.
So the suburbs people lost the real estate debate so they are resorting to attacks on NYC residents’ personalities?
Is that intended to show they are nice people with good personalities? I don’t get it.
The fact Manhattan people are migrating here is what helps bring the Europeans and others from other places. Europeans often prefer Brooklyn once they have the opportunity to visit friends and colleagues’ Brooklyn homes, because it’s more like Europe to them as I’ve heard many times. They love it. Lots of times you only learn about a neighborhood because a friend lives there and you are forced to visit! That was totally the case with me and my first excursion into Brooklyn in the mid 90’s before I moved to NYC more recently. It wasn’t so cool to live in Brooklyn back then but I myself thought it was beautiful and unique and great and always remembered the visit fondly.
4:44 shows that new yorkers are the ultimate hypocrites.
