More Mega-Units at Meier's OPP
A few units at the Richard Meier-designed On Prospect Park just got quite a bit roomier. The F, G and H lines at the development have been combined on floors 2 through 5, resulting in four-bedroom apartments that are 3,199 square feet. Are the new layouts a sign that sales at the condo aren’t up…
A few units at the Richard Meier-designed On Prospect Park just got quite a bit roomier. The F, G and H lines at the development have been combined on floors 2 through 5, resulting in four-bedroom apartments that are 3,199 square feet. Are the new layouts a sign that sales at the condo aren’t up to snuff? Or are they an attempt to shelter lower-floor owners from big-unit envy? (The largest penthouse boasts a formidable 3,408 square feet of interior space and 1,934 square feet of exterior space.) Corcoran has yet to list the condos with reconfigured layouts—you can see them on the main OPP website—but it’s likely they’ll be asking in the $1,100- to $1,300-square-foot range given current prices on the building’s other big apartments that front Grand Army Plaza. As previously noted, prices at the development are all over the map: One of the building’s smaller, courtyard-facing units is listed at less than $800 a square foot, while several larger condos are asking more than $1,200 a square foot.

Er, who can’t find a four-bedroom apartment for $4MM? I suggest buying two brownstones, and cutting doors into the party wall. Now you have an eleven-bedroom apartment.
Eventually, ALL units will be combined, creating a single residence marketed towards whoever this millenium’s version of Charles Foster Kane might be. . .
Are those circles in all the rooms structural columns? If so, it seriously reduces the useable space (and I would find it very annoying–there are two of them in most of the rooms). I live nearby and would love a larger apartment, but have been very disappointed with the layouts in this building, and I think the columns are a big part of that.
i have a feeling with the amount people are paying in maintenance fees here, they’ll keep the glass pretty clean.
if you hate it, just say so…don’t be passive agressive about it.
the two meier towers down on the far west side of manhattan are as clean as the day they were built.
Who are all the people with $4.0 million to drop on all these places? I mean really, are there any middle class people in this city, or is it just me?
Don’t worry, the glass will get dirty and the building will not standout so much next to its neighbors. It will look like many similar dreary Manhattan office buildings.
this building is not in park slope. close, but definitely not in park slope.
it’s in prospect heights. and as far as brooklyn neighborhoods go, i’d argue that it’s one of the “hippest”
i really like the way this building is looking from the exterior.
i realize it’s not everyone’s cup of tea, but there’s something about the way the glass reflects both the blue sky and the clouds unlike others i’ve seen.
