187-7th-ave-1-2011-copy.jpg
A reader forwarded this listing to us yesterday with an email subject line that read “Can this be real??” Actually, there are at least a couple questions about its reality to ask: 1. Is it possible that renovations will occur at 187 7th Avenue in our lifetime? Despite being on a prime Slope corner, this one’s been in sorry shape for a loooong time. 2. Even though it’s got the whole location thing going for it, is $15K/month at all realistic for a space that probably hasn’t seen any sort of TLC in more than a decade? We can’t wait to find out!

  1. It’s SUPER sad that these girls at least on the outside seem to be with it and successful yet have a crazy mom who won’t sell off that building. It’s sorta like watching Hoarders and seeing how traumatized the kids are of these people suffering from that wretched disease.

  2. If anybody is wondering why the DOB doesn’t do anything about this situation, re-read the old Brownstoner thread about the building and see the bio for the owner’s daughter: She’s an administrative law judge for New York City’s Environmental Control Board. The youngest judge to be selected for the position, she hears cases involving violations of New York’s administrative code and rules involving the departments of buildings, sanitation, health, parks, and fire.

  3. Fsrg – I didn’t see that, but that makes it ever worse! perhaps though the mother is so sick that she refuses to give complete title over to the girls in order for them to sell it, but then again it doesn’t take away the fact that even with them owning the building with the mother they can’t try and keep it up and repair the building…
    it’s a disgrace
