I was thinking the same thing as 2:46 with regard to layout. Hmmmm. Why does the spiral make the heights different from front to back? Sounds undo-able.
The picks this week are uninspiring. I was hoping for 129 Prospect Place, which has an open house this weekend. Anyone know anything about it?
Yes, but they get tenure. Then its nothing more than a union job. And what does all this have to do with “the rest of the world is eating our lunch in 20 years”
Can you really see that far into the future or are you on hallucinogens like the broker for the Gates property?
Revision: “…perhaps [a trust fund] Arch prof, will bite”.
The spiral plan, while weird, is original to that house and the others next to it. That floorplan is especially difficult to deal with if you’re a senior. But it’s tough to gut and redo as a triplex over garden, since the windows/floors in the back rooms in the middle of the house are a different height than those in the front, due to the spiral. Very major job – gutting the entire house to shell status, including pulling out the staircase and replacing it with a side stair, moving rear windows to different heights to accommodate new floors the depth of the entire building….not worth it.
Sad but true 2:48. A college professor can’t earn enough to buy and maintain a house that “needs work” in a so-so neighborhood. Remember back to this when the rest of the world is eating our lunch in 20 years.
hows a prof going to earn enough to pay that mortgage. Don’t think so.
Re: St. James
Kill the spiral and do a triplex over garden. 1.2 is the correct crackpipe ask. But it’s close to Pratt. Someone, perhaps an Arch prof, will bite.
its more squashed than squished.
I LOVE what they did with the Gate house. Wish I could see the lay out. Lovely interesting parlor floor layout.
