BSB:
Once upon a time, I was not a fan of Al Vann. I now am. If there is an issue that needs to be addressed…say for example….getting the most out of District 16 and District 13 schools…dealing with faux developers who only want to r#$# and pillage the community…
He is definitely the elected who can bring ALL parties to the table. On one occasion with a developer…he had all the big guns (read knowledgable, influential, experienced and VERY familiar with the community) in the room. The developer KNEW that if he was a “no show” he would have been a duck without water.
The meeting place was Al Vann’s office. BTW, did you know that Vanguard was formed to lend money to homebuyers in Bed Stuy when the nabe was redlined.
The building serves the community. Leave Al alone.
Does anyone know whats going in at the corner of Fulton & Marcus garvey? I walked by last weekend and they were measuring the outside and drywall was going up inside. Looked like there was some restaurant equipment inside
I heard that it is going to be a coffee house on Throop which is also needed in the area. The McDonald’s can be a bit much with all the teens that hang out there… I really think that McDonald’s puts something in the food that makes the kids crazy…
“old hardware store on Throop and Decatur” — are you refering to the the tool rental place? If so, it has been rented to a couple that plans to open up a coffee shop with internet access…etc. I thought it would have been opened by now. I am not sure about the hold up. It will be interesting to see the interaction between its patrons and the McD’s patons next door. It will be an interesting experiment.
I went to the open house at 263 Stuyvesant couple of weeks ago. It is a beautiful house, it needs a lot of work, but has tons of potential. I would assume you can get around $1000 for each apartment, which would help a lot with the carrying cost. The financing can be a little difficult to achieve for a five family, but if someone can make it work they will have a beauty.
I think 327 Stuyvesant can be something nice. I hear something is going on at the old hardware store on Throop and Decatur. I just that McDonald’s would go…
263 is a really nice house on a row of nice houses. Its just the price is crazy. Not to mention that this is a 5 Family house. With the banking crisis at hand good luck landing that commercial loan. The house would be worth the risk if it was priced right, i’ll say at around $750k.
The price on the Hancock house is just plain crazy! Corcoran needs to come down to earth, i know they are trying to catch a sucker, but DAM! that’s just a straight up jack move.
The other two house in the heart of Bed Stuy are posted by bad brokers that don’t know anything about the neighborhood. They have a couple of short sales in the heart of Bed Stuy on Monroe for around $400k. Prices dont make sence right now…..
As for the houses… Keith Mack has lost his mind asking for $1.2. (Disclaimer: I am not a big fan of his) It ain’t gonna happen. Puh-leeese. “The two one bedroom units will provide enough income to cover 60% of your mortgage. ” — what numbers is he using?
263 Stuy – nice house. Assuming a monthly nut of $5700 or so, I wonder what how much the studios would bring in. While I think the house is a tad overpriced, I think that the dollars make sense.
Dose anyone know of any new restaurants coming to the area? We need about 20 more like Peaches…
