After buying 71 Stuyvesant Avenue in the part of town Corcoran is calling Bedwick (Bed Stuy meets Bushwick, get it?) in 2010 for $640,000, the new owner set about renovating the walkup building; in retrospect that looks like a great price for a 6,200-square-foot building in this rapidly changing area. After two and a half years, the project was ready for its unveiling yesterday. At an open house yesterday, the twelve units, ranging in price from $1,650 for a 450-square-foot studio to $3,950 for a 1,800-square-foot four-bedroom, were shown for the first time. Every apartment has central air and heat and there’s a shared laundry facility in the building. Update: We’re hearing that about a dozen people showed up to the open house yesterday.

Bedwick? Corcoran, you’re doin’ it wrong. Also, I know the area well and these rents are about $500 more than anything I’ve seen.
i like bush-stuy better
Not bed-bush?
They’ll claim anything is luxury so they can slap a high price on it.
I love when you see a building with a cheap-o vinyl banner slapped on the front proclaiming “LUXURY CONDO’s” (yes, that apostrophe was intentional.) You know that it’s anything but.
“The are much nicer locations around BK and Manhattan which are comparable to this pricing.”
eh, not really. have you tried renting an apartment in a “nicer” location lately?
still wouldn’t pay those prices for this location though.
Montrose, I gotta agree with you. Also, bedwick sounds like it could be the name of a bedbug-like insect. No thank you.
