Hey, What, come out from under your rock long enough to see what’s going on. Crown Heights North is a real historic district. They didn’t need your permission or awareness to do it. Great architecture and a lot of hard work did the job.
No We don’t get it..Twhat. I have 3 properties and I have been getting equity out of my properties for years to buy other properties, to pay for college expenses and for renovating costs. All without selling one piece of property. Time will allow me to recoup the money and repeat the process all over. Stop hating on young couples with a solid investment plan for their future. Not everyone is sitting at home with a bottle in their hand on the computer ranting about the ills of the world….get a LIFE so you can stop watching others LIVE.
“Contrary to what people are being led to believe. My husband and I purchased in Crown Hts. and have seen our equity rise even through the current housing crisis. We intend to stay for a while so time will be on our side. A good investment is not always measured by the green grocer on the corner. I would rather have hundreds of thousands in equity than a starbucks in the neighborhood.”

You don’t get equity until you sell. Got it.
“Crown Heights North is the name of the Historic District, and basically is that part of CH north of Eastern Parkway. Basically from Bedford to Albany, Pacific to Eastern Parkway. Crown Heights South, south of EP, obviously, is different in ethnic populations, architecture and vibe. A huge amount of territory and it makes sense to subdivide it.”
Hey Morris, stop buying crack on Nostrand. It’s fucking up your brain.
The What
Someday this war gonna end…
12:57….
they probably got lost wandering up from park slope…
To 11:57 – Even if I have to take in a boarder I live in a home that most people would die for and I live 20 minutes from Manhattan. My youngest child’s bedroom is the size of most people’s living room. I don’t have to buy small size anything – it all fits in my kitchen, my dining room, my whatever. I can go to Costco and stock up to my heart’s content. I have room for a grand piano in my parlor. And I still have an income producing rental. That’s why I love my brownstone. These homes have been great investments for the last hundred years and will continue to be so for the next. And Crown Heights has beautiful homes. If I were buying today, that’s where I’d look.
I did see a young white couple WITH a baby in a stroller last week on Kingston and Sterling.
12:32, prove that, please. I think you will find that if prices are falling at all, they are in line with any reductions in the rest of Brooklyn. If you are waiting for a $350K brownstone in CH, don’t hold your breath.
i feel like i’m in a really bad dream
Not today, “friend” 12:13. I’ve made my point countless times, and have decided that if the majority wants to continue to believe that we live in a crime ridden hellhole, then that’s a majority that will be leaving us alone, which is just fine. We’ll continue to improve our community, enjoy our fine homes and streetscapes, and work with the police and community groups to make it a better community for all. Don’t need you for that, or anything else.

Crow Hill is also another community within the larger CH area, and those apartments on Bedford are on the border of CHN and Crow Hill, which extends from Bedford to Classon until the neighborhood changes to Prospect Heights.
