Co-op of the Day: 11 Garden Place, #1

To own a half-brownstone in Brooklyn Heights or a full brownstone in Boerum Hill or Fort Greene? That is the eternal question raised by a listing like this one at 11 Garden Place. 25 feet wide and elegantly appointed, the duplex is impressive indeed; but with an asking price of $2,575,000, it’s also priced at around $1,200 a foot if our back-of-the-envelope square footage calculations are correct. Worth it? It might depend on whether you agree with the broker’s assertion that Garden Place is “generally considered to be Brooklyn Heights’ most desirable street.”
