Before passing comments it would be nice to realize this is someone’s former home you are
talking about. I lived in that home from age 2
to age 19. Wonderful memories of wonderful times in that home with my dad in the basement
making the kitchen cabinet’s by hand, one by one. Rather than name calling it, call it a once very happy home.

F*ck your precious car and your motorist’s entitlement. Take the bus if you don’t want your car to be touched by anyone else out on the street.
Anon 4:37, it’s not that the school needs “building up.” It’s that it has an ethos that is out of sync with that of many of the families in the neighborhood. It’s a disciplined, homework-heavy school. It’s working for the people who want that. It’s just that not all of us want that. (Whew, that was a lot of “that”s in five sentences! Make that six…)
To one and all and especially the cute little poet, Brenda, look at the DOB wesite an change your leading man to John Hathaway, not Robert Scarano who buy the way has yet to put a fedders A/C sleave in the over 1000 buildings he has built. OOPS Those pesky facts getting in the way again.
Its Jon the enabler to the rescue. Savior of the rotten wood frame world
One of the posters called this an “ugly house”. It’s not. I’ve walked by it before and admired it. It’s not grand like a brownstone, but it’s a very sweet, rather graceful turn-of-the-century frame house with its exterior details intact (rather than covered in siding). There is something really appealing about these old wood frame houses (when they aren’t destroyed by siding) in the midst of all the brownstone. Maybe because they are sort of rare and probably older than the brownstones.
per·sev·er·ate –verb (used without object), -at·ed, -at·ing. to repeat something insistently or redundantly: i.e. to perseverate in reminding children of their responsibilities.
“perseverating”
when did this become a word? Today?
Anon 3:47. The assessment numbers have little to do with actual prices. The 27.6% increase your quoting is the increase in the assessment which has been significantly behind actual values for years.
