When the Azure Condos at 195 Classon Avenue in Clinton Hill hit the market last spring, the developer gave the FSBO route a whirl for a few weeks before handing the project off the Corcoran. Since June, however, the firm’s marketing mojo has come up a little short, with only one of the seven units in contract to date. As last year drew to a close, Corco cut prices on three of the units: one went from $649,000 to $599,000; another from $755,000 to $679,000; and a third from $735,000 to $649,000. Do you think $600 a foot is low enough to move these babies? As an aside, that arch over the doorway still bothers us.

  1. I live two blocks away, and have lived here for a little over 2 years. The walk to the C is absolutely 100% safe, along blocks lined with beautiful homes and trees. The walk to the Classon G stop is not as pretty, but still fine.

    Another alternative is the B54 Bus that runs along Myrtle and drops you off by Metro-Tech.

    The distance should kill it, not the safety. That stretch of Myrtle has changed a lot with all the new restaurants.

    12:02, and others… with any apartment/house, you should visit the area first to get a sense. People on these boards will not be very helpful, because some people never feel safe in New York, and there are others who feel sale and comfortable in more nabes.

  2. The TOP part of the building is odd-looking? To each his own. I think the top 80 percent of this building is beautiful. It’s the entrance that looks like shit–bizarre mishmash, out of place arch, Home Depot tiles on-sale, something-or-other. But hey–it could be worse, and many buildings are.

  3. The top part of the building is very odd looking. I can’t imagine anyone buying these event at the new price. I think these will go rental very soon.
    The G train is the closest option and as for the C that is at least 15 mins walk away.
