Swift Sales at 4th Ave Condo
The aesthetics of new construction on 4th Avenue may still be controversial, but sales at the latest condo to hit the market on the thoroughfare, 560 Carroll, have been pretty strong. StreetEasy is showing 34 of the condo’s units are in contract, and there are 10 remaining active listings. The building launched just this January….

Whoa, methinks there is some SERIOUS square footage exaggeration happening here:

That doesn’t look like 774sf to me.
This speaks to the pulling power of the Slope. You’re on a major thoroughfare with a fairly long commute to the city and the 321 elementary school which while good, does not get the top scores in Brooklyn. Yet a one-bedroom is $799k and will likely be sold. You could sell a drainhole in Park Slope and people would be queuing up.
Interesting news about the impending rezoning of 321. Does anyone know of something similar for PS 29?
I_disagree;
OK, I’ll take your word for it. I don’t have school-age kids, but from some discussions with my neighbors I had thought that the plans for the rezoning were already announced.
One of the better looking buildings on 4th. Terraces are nice and not those stoopid ‘Juliet’ things on some of the other buildings.
benson – under current DOE policy, once the kids are admitted to ps 321, they can stay even if they move or are rezoned. i am guessing some portion of them don’t know what the DOE is doing right now, or plan/hope to get their kid admitted before the rezoning happens.
the DOE has to be working on the rezoning right now. the new ps 133 will supposedly add 600 seats, but i’m not sure how many of these are going to D15. and because the of the locations, sizes and crowding of the current school buildings, you can’t really effectively rezone one school without shuffling at least a couple others around…i think we will see the DOE trying to shave off portions of a bunch of different zones (not just 321) and then you will see the park slope claws come out.
Babs;
Perhaps you are not aware, but a rezoning of 321 is already in the works. As 11217 points out, there is a new school building going up on 4th and about Butler, and upon its completion some areas will be zoned out of 321, and into this new school. I assume, therefore, that people who are buying into this complex are going in with eyes wide open on this issue, and yet the prices are holding up.
As folks said yesterday, there is a huge demand for new 3-bedrooms in all of Park Slope.
I like this building, except for the stucco wall on its south side. Glad to see progress continue on 4th Ave. Slowly but surely, it is shaping up. Once it is landscaped in a fashion like Flatbush Ave, it will really shape up.
“If they ever reduce the size of that zone to exclude Fourth Avenue real estate prices there will collapse.”
I don’t believe this to be true, since the other elementary schools in Park Slope are also excellent. In fact, aren’t they building a brand new school a few blocks away on 4th?
