Re 4th Street: The wooden deck of 16X10 feet is illegal on two counts (size and too close to party lines). If you buy this house plan on the expenses of DOB violations and the cost to rebuild…..DOB has been cracking down on everything lately…especially decks…
Sometimes I wonder about you people. If a house has a center staircase, than a 15’6″ parlor room is wider in a narrow house then it is in a 21 foot house (where the end up to be 13 feet.) While it is true that in a 21 foot house you can have one or two 21 foot bedrooms, the actually living space may not feel that much better because without the center stair you make more compromises for closets, etc. Many of these narrower houses are actually deeper, so they can end up actually bigger. You can’t really judge from the width, you have to see the layout and the placement of the stairs.
Benson and DIBS (fits for both)
That’s what he said.
sam…my walls ar at least a foot thick, front, back and sides.
That setup is WAY too easy.
Picky, picky, picky. What’s a few inches between friends?
I also hate it when realtors lie through their teeth.
On the 4th Street house, the interior dimension of a full-width room is 15′-6″ and yet they clain the lot is 18′ wide. That would mean each sidewall, which are party walls, would be over a foot thick on each side of the lot. Those party walls are a foot thick total (at most), six inches on each side of the lot. This width of that lot is more like 16′-6″ than 18.
sam and Snark, I’ve put out the call to Nancy Walker. For those who missed it yesterday, this is the most effective way to deal with Park Slope spillover.

4th street house is OK – looks to be in good shape
it’s not brimming with new renovations – but it’s not a horror show either
it just needs to come down in price
