I don’t think Nevins is “underpriced.” I’d say it’s appropriately priced for a suddenly glutted and extremely sluggish market. No, I do not think the sky is falling, or even cracked. But clearly the market is at a place where if you want your property to move you have to make the price a lot more attractive than you used to. I’ll bet this sells for about asking but long before anything else in this round-up.
Always thought Empire Blvd was Crown Heights. Besides, even with the setback from the street, we are still talking about an extremely active and noisy thoroughfare. Might be priced correctly, though.
Nevins Street is definitely underpriced. It faces PS 38 on the Dean Street side and there is a fairly nice playground on that block. Wish I could bid on it.
Anon. 3:41,
Similar boundaries between many brownstone neighborhoods–Brooklyn Heights/Cobble Hill (Atlantic Ave.); Park Slope/Prospect Heights (Flatbush Ave.) and so on. Parochial? Maybe, but not unusual. As I said earlier, I’m not sure if BOTH sides of Empire are in PLG or not–since many of these boundaries are rather ambiguous, I’m not sure if there IS an answer.
Actually, I don’t know if the north side of Empire is considered to be in PLG or not–I suspect it is, but I’nm really unsure.I never expected to be stumpted by a question like this. Most of Empire is commercial (and rather desolate) but there is that row of houses between Rogers and Nostrand which, I confess, I never really thought about. The pictures look pretty good IMO.
OMG – its on the other side of the street. Outrage to call it PLG. Obviously its very different local, demographics, lifestyle etc that goes with the neighborhood your in.
Across the street it is so different.
These realtors. Gotta watch out for them
237 Empire Boulevard is not PLG. That side of Empire would put it in Crown Heights.
Nevins looks nice. As an aside, is that Windsor Terrace house on the Nancy Mckiernan site really still available? And did the price drop by a few hundred K? Geez that’s been on the market for ever.
Yeah, I think I’d take Nevins over Bergen. Plus Bergen is right where the Brooklyn Bridge shortcut to Court Street is located (avoiding the left turn off Atlantic Avenue). Plus Nevins looks like a nicer place. I really like the roof.
Propshark says 3000+ sq ft on Nevins.
18×40 which is a bit less than 3000 so assume must be some extension space.
