It seems like only two weeks ago that we were discussing the $2.4 million price tag on the four-bedroom pre-war co-op at 24 Monroe Place. Ohyeah, it was. In a sign that Brooklyn Heights is not impervious to the effects of a declining real estate market, the asking price has just been reduced almost 20 percent to $1,950,000. As we look at the floorplan, it occurs to us that buyers in this price range are probably aren’t too psyched about having a galley kitchen. The other negative: The fourth bedroom is a small “maid’s room” at the rear of the apartment, hardly a great spot to stash the newborn. Still, gorgeous apartment, blue-chip building, great location. We shall see.

  1. Actually my Wife is having an affair with someone at HER job – but she still does an excellent job on the laundry!
    and BTW most ‘cleaning people’ wont do laundry anyway.
    You’d clearly have to ‘rich’ to afford this apartment but you clearly have the wrong idea how far 500K a yr goes in this city.
