Oh, I see, that’s right on the A/C. Very convenient.
Tdeezy, congrats on your place.
I have a friend near the Gates stop who just rented to some recent Pratt graduates.
Seems like there are some interesting businesses in the area, many of them new. Market Hotel, Athom Cafe, Goodbye Blue Monday, the Beauty Bar and, further afield, Tandem. But I thought people were still more interested in the L train side — no?
mopar, thanks but that’s way tto far from me. A quick trip to Boerum Hill and Smith & Hoyt is where I get everytthing these days
@ CrownHeightsLady yes i would say the some parts of North Bed Stuy needs work, but as I stated before that there has been an influx of people who are moving(those who can no longer afford Williamsburg) into the neighborhood. I see this just riding on the J train every day it is amazing.I love Stuyvesant Heights especially McDonough between Stuyveant & Lewis my favorite block but North Stuy is going through this great transformation>
I just wish that Broadway had more to offer such as coffee shops like Athom and book stores, etc.
Thanks, Dave. I will definitely check that out.
BTW, I don’t know if you have an interest, but the butcher Marlowe & Daughters on Broadway near Berry has amazing homemade duck & pork liverwurst sausage. (Many other good things too.) It’s very tasty on the quarter round Amy’s bread they sell.
One thing….there is an excellent dive Mexican restaurant called Taco Poblano on broadway just south of Throop.
The goat barbacoa is really good.
But it’s improved enough to get these prices. I know it’s hard to believe, along the J isn’t pretty but I’m telling you, there’s a certain set of people that are actually seeking out living there. The transportation really is pretty good especially if you just need to go downtown. I used to live off the C in Clinton Hill and that train can be very irregular. Long delays between trains even in rush hour with A trains flying by. Here the J runs like clockwork. Also, farther south in BedStuy you might end up far from the A/C line and I’m sorry but I don’t think the G is that great of a train.
This is coming from someone who would really much rather live further south but we wanted to buy and we couldn’t afford a place that we like anywhere else so there it is.
I live further south, near the Nostrand stop on the A. The blocks by the J/Z vary a lot–some are beautiful and some are really, really ugly and some are scary. More consistently nice down here and better services too.
I am renting a floor-through 1.5-bedroom (above the parlor, but not the top floor–much cooler in the summer and higher ceilings than right under the roof!) in a brownstone for $1300 but my landlord had a lot of trouble getting the same for the parlor floor during the winter. I think he had to go down $100, and that apartment includes gas and electric. But I think the rental market has recovered a bit since winter.
Yeah, that transfer will be soon be my new commute. Unfortunately, it does take 40 to 50 minutes. Whereas the same commute on the L is 30 to 40. Oh well.
