2:00, you actually had me for a split second. Well maybe more than a split second. I was ready to google I.P. Freeley!
Nice.
A Porky’s moment.

“Does anyone else think that dealing with the Neinast(s) from Corcoran is really unappealing? (Prospect Place Broker)”
Yes. I dealt with them last year when they had a 6th Ave house for sale. They said there was a bidding war, yet the house remained on the market for almost a year, and was reduced many times. I believe there were some comments on various Brownstoner threads about it last year.
How is my math off? Didn’t need it.
How were my measurements off? No measurements required.
An easy and conservative addition of 400k to a 1.6 million dollar offer, and a floor plan which put the outer most dimensions (garden width) at under 20′.
Yes, his “Yellow River” house in St. Louis is stunning.
1:52, yes I also noticed that the Pei reference was removed. Very odd.
Well, apparently now 383 3rd Street is “temporarily off-market” according to Streeteasy. The listing is also gone from Corcoran. Wonder what happened. It’s only been a few weeks.
491 3rd Street is actually the work of renowned architect I.P. Freeley. It’s a common mistake.
“Guess What, 491 3rd Street just got $100,000 shaved off the ask. IM Pei designed, 22 feet wide, best street in Brooklyn….blah blah blah. Is it the Credit Crunch or is the layout just too weird?”
Not only was the price reduced, BUT the broker removed any and all reference to I.M. Pei from the listing! Hmmm…
