Co-op of the Day: Eastern Parkway Two Bedroom
We’re not sure which building it is exactly, but this two-bedroom co-op is in one of the nice old prewar ones across from the Brooklyn Museum on Eastern Parkway. We’re digging the old floors, beamed ceiling and large windows and have to think this is pretty reasonably priced at $595,000. The eat-in kitchen and doormen…

Do you think this will move quickly? Anyone know the exact address?
Eastern Parkway Co-op [Brown Harris Stevens]
TT is pretty cool looked at it several times over the years. in 96 saw a 15th? fl. apt with total manhattan views for 150K needed everything.
not a fan of the area for my lifestyle which involves running out/going out to much. also, had a brief rental in Prospect Hts proper in 89/90 and hated the hood period, but anyway.. think this was a good deal.
Sale closed for $560,000
After culling through this helpful info, I just spoke to the broker and there is an executed contract on the place, flip-tax, hot-dog stand and all.
They can make fun all they want-I too, always hoped to live in TT someday-especially when I was a kid living @ 201 EP, on the “other side” of WA. I always loved the stretch of EP from GAP to WA-so much so, in fact, that I used to beg my mother to get off at the IRT GAP stop instead of EP/BM when coming home from A&S, so that we could walk that stretch of EP enabling me to take it all in! This was also where I first saw buildings “with trees on the roof” & was hooked ever since. It just cracks me up how even then I (apparently) had a keen sense of architectual aesthetics. Back to that walk: It was such a downer crossing WA & leaving that beautiful route behind. Entering our north facing, 2nd floor apt only made it worse. . .The only memorable thing I saw from those rear windows was a cat with a wildingly flapping pigeon in it’s mouth, going around in circles with it while shrieking loudly. My mother, unable to take it anymore, actually stopped the attack by throwing a bucket of water on the pair. The cat finally let go, & the poor bird was able to limp away. Whether or not it headed for TT I really couldn’t say. . .
I’m Jan 4, ’07 12:38 PM and this site is about unhealthy obsessions with real estate so I feel I should be able to say I dream of living in TT without being mocked! So there!
you can’t get in with 90% financing. 80% at MINIUMUM.
$595k
@ say 6.5% int rate,
90% financing = $3385/month
+ maintenance = $4260/month!!!
+ 25% flip tax at sale = NO THANKS!!!
Around the block on Lincoln Place, I guess.
I don’t know. If possible I’d want to park right in front of the hotdog stand.
