Lesloaf,
Interesting that you say the 6th Ave home needs a complete gut reno.
The photos disguise that very well.
Does anyones crytal ball say what this block will be like when the AY project is finished?
Regarding the 6th Ave home, beware of living in a construction zone for the next few years. The following is from an article in the Jan 12, 2010 Brownstoner.
“How is [the new street closing that will take effect in February] likely to impact traffic in the area? ‘Expect a lot more traffic on Sixth Avenue between Flatbush Avenue and Pacific Street, which will become two-way,’ says AYR.”

I saw the PH house at last week’s open house. In addition to the bad location (literally 3 doors down from what will soon be a massive construction site, complete with many visiting rats), it is in terrible condition. IMO, it needs a complete gut reno. The broker admitted that it needs a new roof and boiler, the floors and staircases are dangerous, etc. But there are some nice original details, including the mantles — and yes, there’s a decent back yard space. Could be a good project for someone with a lot of time and money on their hands….
189 15th street,
Who on earth concocted those layouts. They are beyond horiffic!
Do people actually live in places like that?
rh, new kitchen and baths (which I’d prefer to do myself rather than have someone else’s “taste” imposed on me), floors desperately need to be refinished, and a skim coat paint job. I’d also cover all the exposed brick. Am I missing something? (I’m just afraid the house is near the end of eminent domain proceedings, or is the next facade in Brooklyn about to collapse.)
If the 6th Ave house was a shell, what would it be priced at? It’s the photographer’s job to make the place look awesome, but look closely at the photos. It needs lots of work.
EWWW! The Rugby Road house is a time capsule! Gross. I’ve seen it on her site for ages now, and no takers, and no price drop. If you can afford a $1M+ house, wouldn’t you want this one http://www.marykayg.com/html/0559.html instead??????
Looks like a very nice block from Streetview, John.
Jefferson Ave has a new oil furnace, the rest I believe isn’t updated.
That would mean a lot of money in renovation.
Nice block though.
Does anyone know the price for the house across the street that’s been for sale?
