Rental of the Day: 126 4th Avenue

When we first posted about the big new rental on 4th Avenue and Baltic a couple of months ago, the general consensus about the building’s design was more or less summed up by one comment: Beaten badly by the Ugly Stick. Again and again. Nevertheless, the development brings the first batch of new-construction rentals to the Boerum Hill-Park Slope-Gowanus border area on 4th (the avenue has, of course, otherwise been flooded with condos builds), and so it’ll be interesting to see how much demand there is for these apartments. Listings have gone up for one- and two-bedroom units in the building at 126 4th Avenue (ready for move-ins by March), and they’re looking to get between $2,400 and $2,500 for the one-bedrooms and around $3,000 for the two-bedroom, 1-baths. Amenities include central air and many of the units have terraces, but tenants have to pay for their own utilities. Rosetta Farrell, the Heights Berkeley Realty agent who’s handling the listings, says the rents are standard for the area, and that she expects the apartments to be snapped up quickly given the dearth of new rentals in the Slope. Considering all the amenities and the fact that it’s a new building, I think they’re very reasonable, says Farrell.

Maybe Papa himself will be renting out one of these sweeeeeet units.
Uh… the Papa John’s is right in the picture. Red sign next to this building.
Next door.

Pure broker speak if I’ve ever seen it…
“These look pretty nice inside actually.Renters are not picky. They will see new, central air, a couple blocks stumbling distance to some great restarants and bars and sign on the dotted line. There is stuff a lot crappier than this out there.”
Such guilt, yet such arrogance! Touche!
The one Brookyn ave that the world see’s during the marathon
Makes me proud
1:14….that wasn’t a joke.
a papa john’s just opened right near this place.
“These asshats have the NERVE to call it “Park Slope/ Boerum Hill”.”
Uh, it’s on the border of Park Slope and Boerum Hill! Sounds appropriate to me. Otherwise the place is overpriced and ugly. I’d keep looking.
Another step forward for the Park Ave / Champs Elysee of Brooklyn. Can’t wait until more of these get built by our city’s finest architects.
I was thinking about 12:55’s request (joke?) for a chain pizza restaurant when I noticed something I missed earlier–there appears to be no retail space in this building! How can a developer build on a major commercial street and not include retail? Further proof of the POS-ness of this slab o’ bricks. (Yeah, I’m pretty sure 12:55 was joking. The profanity is the give-away, I think.)
