these apartments aside, I really like this new feature so I hope it continues.
I take the J train every morning and I can get to the Empire state building in 30mins taking the express J and the express Q
the A train to me is fast but not as fast as the J
they are all over priced.
Th JM commute cannot be shorter than the A to midtown…It’s 5 stops from Myrtle to get to the East Village just for the luxury of catching the awful F train. It’s a lot slower on those elevated tracks than on the A line. The JM ride was my first experience into bed Stuy.
These are all overpriced, possibly because they’re all renovated.
Of the lot, No. 2 and No. 3 are best located with the best subway access and also happen to have the nicest layouts (from what you can see in the photographs). Specifically, Gates & Patchen may be near the projects, but it’s also on top of the police station and close to the subway. No. 2 is closest to Pratt and also close to the subway.
They all seem to be aimed at Pratt students. I am not a Pratt student, so can’t judge if these are desirable.
None of these are what I would look for in a rental in Bed Stuy. If I were a single mother, a couple, or a couple with one child, a 1.5 bedroom floor through on the top floor of a brownstone in Stuyvesant Heights for $1200 to $1300 with a nice landlord who lives in the building and all the original details and close to the A Utica would be ideal.
That’s the beauty of Bed Stuy.
@ DaveinBedStuy I have to disagree though this area is not Stuyvesant Heights
the Northern part of Bed Stuy is actually transforming The JMZ commute is actually better than the A and the going price for a 1 bedroom duplex, 2 bathrooms, garden $1400 sounds correct and to be honest they are great looking apartments
I can understand $1,400 for something like what Dave is renting – in prime ‘pretty’ bed stuy. but not up near the G/J trains. You can get the same or cheaper in another neighborhood with better transport and amenities.
” I guess Bed-Stuy is the new Cobble Hill!”
That’s what I saw in its potential when I was looking!!!
DIBS… I agree. But that’s what it says above, thus my shock! I guess Bed-Stuy is the new Cobble Hill!
