  1. Clarification: $600 to $800 per person IN A SHARED ROOMMATE SITUATION. Absolutely, one bedrooms are usually at least $1,000 and generally more like $1200. I’ve actually never heard of a studio for less than $900. (I’m talking about market rate of course.)

  2. I havent been on those blocks and I freely admited that I was unfamiliar with the area involved BUT I am familiar with rental rates in other ‘less than prime’ parts of NYC and I can say that it is extremely rare to find a below 1K apartment anywhere in NYC.

  3. Mysideofstuy…I think we can agree that the area question has improved over the last 5 years…BUT they have not improved that much. Give it a few more years and MAYBE this prices will make sense. The area needs some more work.

  4. “For all of you commenting that the rates don’t look unreasonable, I bet you’ve never been on these blocks.”

    Sorry – one bedrooms around there shouldn’t be more than 1,000 bucks.

  5. @ Mopar…
    you can take the J train to Brooklyn Bridge/Chambers and
    transfer to the 4 train uptown which also goes express and head to 42nd st Grand Central. I do not frequent the L train only because it is a little out of the way for me.

  6. The 3brs definitly seem rich to me but – no matter how you slice it the 1 & 2 brs cant be THAT overpriced – I mean where in NYC can you get a decent apartment for below $1100? And these are at least attractively renovated.
