“reasonable real estate taxes would save us a lot of headaches.”
i don’t believe in throwing more money at a problem. The MTA and all the rest need to address the problems.
The problem is that the union contracts don’t allow for any wage freezes or cutbacks. So many individuals will instead get fired. They ratified the contract so they only have themselves to blame.
And don’t get me started on the waste in the school system. Start with the obvious…the rubber rooms….estimated to cost $100 MM
funky, we should also have state & city income taxes that are more reasonable like the rest of the country…LOWER.
The MTA is a mess because of mismanagement, not because there isn’t more money to subsidize the morons that run it.
So is every state & local government. When things were going well and revenues coming in, they spent it all, not understanding that someday ther’ed be rain!!!!!
Why should any taxpayer not be upset with financing the gross mismanagement that is our levels of government, post office, public transportation, etc, etc, etc???
(sorry. i didn’t mean that nyc’s fiscal issues are your fault, dave. just that reasonable real estate taxes would save us a lot of headaches.)
honestly, dave, for $1900/year you should also not use the hospitals, fire departments, police, sidewalks, or air.
no wonder nyc schools are crappy and the MTA is a mess.
Also, I don’t know who the developer of this block was back in the day (each house may have been built individually) , but it’s not part of TB Ackerson’s original Beverly Square East. Maybe it’s part of BSE now, don’t know .
The remaining houses on East 18th b/w Dorchester and Ditmas are an odd bunch. Only a few houses remain; the rest of the block is occupied by large brick apt. buildings. The three or four houses that are there, however, are jewel boxes – adorable in that they are tiny architectural gems, almost miniaturized versions of standard sized homes throughout the rest of Victorian Flatbush. For this reason, and the fact it’s a sketchy block, I think the house is way overpriced. It’s a great block to walk down – the vista of picture perfect dollhouses in the shadow of the apartment buildings, is really something to behold.
Minbe are $1,900. I don’t use the schools. I’ll forfeit voting if they drop them to $500.
Taxes are $2200 for Park Slope (237 8TH STREET – btw 4th and 5th)
So, that’s what… a 0.18% tax rate? The owners of that house shouldn’t be allowed to use the public school system (or vote).
Looks like the PS place is 1,150 sq. ft. What should that go for???
I haven’t looked up the taxes.
