Red Hook Townhouse Project Not Flying Off Shelf
Apparently buyers are not willing to pay a kingly sum for the new Tuscan-style townhouses in Red Hook. Four of the newly-constructed homes at 93, 95,97 and 99 King Street hit the market last August at $1,300,000 while a fifth was priced at $750,000. None of them have sold to date, prompting two price cuts…
Apparently buyers are not willing to pay a kingly sum for the new Tuscan-style townhouses in Red Hook. Four of the newly-constructed homes at 93, 95,97 and 99 King Street hit the market last August at $1,300,000 while a fifth was priced at $750,000. None of them have sold to date, prompting two price cuts in the last three months that, Curbed noticed earlier this week, have brought the asking price on the four larger properties down to $999,000. The main living spaces with the concrete floors look kinda cool (as long as you don’t place a premium on natural light) but the upstairs bedrooms aren’t cutting it in the looks department for us. Plus, these houses are only 2,000 square feet, so the new asking price only brings the cost down to $500 per foot.

Not sure if the DMV is still conducting road tests there, but if they are, would not dare leave the house and cross the street on weekdays. Very dangerous place due to road tests being conducted there. It is OK on weekends. If you can afford it, use this as your weekend getaway. There is a small beach near Fairway and you can also park your sailing boat there within easy walking distance to the apartment. Ideal for weekends. Really. Best sunsets with sun setting right next to Statue of Liberty with sailing boats in front. What more can you ask for? Very Tuscany-like. Totally like Livorno. Forget Italy. They all came here anyway.
1. Parking in Red Hook is easy as it is- why would you want a freakin’ garage in the first floor that takes away your space? I could understand in other areas…
2. Anything next to public housing, Tuscan influenced or not, is never going to be worth the million dollars you pay for it. d-u-m-b

Did the realtor photoshop the telephone/electrical wires out of that picture of the front of the building?
petebklyn- try living in a place with no closets. You’ll be storing your stuff in your garage.
this thread is no fun. there’s no one who loves these units to defend it.
I’d take a garage over a few closets any day. But Ida thunk they would have put in a skylight to that 1st level from terrace.
and there are certainly places that have sold for more than $1m across from projects before.
one closet? Well, that effectively knocks the female half of the human race.
Anyone notice the floor plans show 2 full baths with tub but the picture shows an open shower- with no enclosing shower wall? With an open shower who uses a curtain? Jeesh.
It is basically new construction. The bottom part was an existing one-story building that was probably totally gutted and certainly reclad in that ugly alternating-color brick.
