House of the Day: 590 2nd Street
The house at 590 2nd Street is quintessential North Central Slope goodness: Four stories of hardcore wood paneling and moldings, parquet floors and stained glass windows. The two-family house, which has been owned by the same family since 1994, is asking $3,200,000, which is about what we would have predicted. Does that sound on the…

We just bought the house and are going to paint all the ‘morbid’ wood in the dining room with white!!! Come and have falafel or Two Boots.
Strollers we have none, but have you seen the view from the roof? Wow! You do not even have to crane your neck to see the Statue of Liberty or the Eiffel Tower.
We are looking forward to being neighbours with so many people that care about where they live.
Yes and this house is far, far, far from Flatbush.
the B and Q get you to grand st in 15min.
living by flatbush is the way to go.
please please people – don’t pretend that ps isn’t a pain in the ass in terms of commuting. i lived there for years. it’s far from stuff in manhattan.
i bet most of you PS’s do not go into the city on the weekends.
for me, i had to ask myself, what is the damned point of living in NYC, if i was skipping too many of the cultural events that make NYC magnificent.
not saying that you have to live in manhattan, i live in williamsburg and love brooklyn more than anything, but really, do not do not do not ever ever think that PS is on the same par as Manhattan. it’s just got some hundred year old + housing and a few ok restaurants and a park. i walked around there for many years, and it gets to be the same ol same ol. with wildly less attractive people than the city (or dumbo or williamsburg).
PS does not have the outstanding schools, museums, ballets, galleries, restaurants, theater, opera, ETC… that the city has. the 100 best schools just came out. NEST-M is on there. if you lived closer or in downtown manhattan, you could send your kid there, instead, you live too far in PS to consider manhattan’s top schools, so you end up with over crowded 321 that in the DOE analysis came behind 5 schools in greenpoint/williamsburg.
and, really 3 million is a lot of money. space is space. you can get a family sized apt for that in manhattan or a smokin place in a much closer brooklyn neighborhood. 2000 sq. ft x $1500 psf gives you tons of options.
oh, i just love drama!
who the eff cares 11:45?
GET OVER YOURSELF!
no one is hijacking anything. in discussing this property (all 80 comments of it) one brought to light another similar property in the neighborhood for comparison’s sake.
what is your deal? you the owner and pissed that a couple comments aren’t talking about your perfect little house? get a grip on your life please.
Oh, but you didn’t seem to have a problem hijacking the Carol Gardens open house listings with this house last friday.
Brooklynnative, get your own damn blog and stop hijacking posts.
I doubt this house will go into a bidding war. But the one that brooklyn native showed… that is bidding war worthy!!
