Just saw in today’s NYT real estate section that a similar location in WT, also sold by Warren Lewis, sold for 1.1 (about 100K less than ask). So not sure how this compares as a comp…
By your logic 8:15, Windsor Terrace would be prime for murder and robbery.
Your comments about murders are ridiculous. Obviously you want to look at the number of murders, but someone coming in and murdering a local business person is a lot different than drive-bys. If I were planning on robbing someone, I’d go where the money was,and I thought I could get away with it, not my local corner bodega where the owner pays someone to lurk at the front counter within reach of a baseball bat or machete, who will break my legs for shoplifting a pack of Juicy Fruit.
The PLG place looks like it has a “private drive” that is a ugly curb cut.
Look at the bird’s eye view via maps.live.com — a row full of curb cuts with cars in front yards. no thanks.
Why did I choose the South Slope over WT? For one, it was actually cheaper. The primary zoned schools (esp. PS 107 and PS 10) are better than PS 154. Much better commute to my office in midtown (no need to take the F train). Better access to good restaurants, shops, grocery stores, etc. Both neighborhoods are pretty good in terms of parking and both provide quick access to the park.
Sure WT doesn’t have the PS brownstones or PS 321. And it is cheaper to live there. But amenities are all relative.
Windsor Terrace has–on a four-block stretch between PPSW (15th Street) and Prospect Avenue–an independent bookstore, a butcher, a bakery that’s been in business for more than 7 years and doesn’t pretend it’s French.
And frankly, WT is a lot more diverse–economically, at least–for now.

8:09 is me..
The crime comments are nuts.. WT is much safer than Park Slope.. the reason that murder got so much press is because it was so unusual.
Of course it’s terrible, and it says more about the effect of people being afraid to be the one to say that so-and-so looks suspicious and just call 911. After all, he was there for a few hours casing the place and many people noticed him.
And that part of 10th ave is particularly safe, with all generations out on a nice evening, and kids playing on the street.
where is windsor terrace?
