This week, the Hudson team comes through on a promise…

Since we imagine you are busy packing your beach bags and counting your illegal firecrackers, we’re keeping this week’s posting short…Above is evidence of our recent Brownstoner tour winners at Third + Bond. From left to right: David Kramer (aka David from Third and Bond), cmu, Alison Novak (aka Alison), shchune, and huntgrunt. (Thomas and Benson are touring separately.) Our guests had diverse backgrounds: computers/green building consulting, residential brokerage, and journalism, which made their great questions all the more interesting. We look forward to having them back when the models are open so they can see the final product.

The tour consisted of walking the three-bedroom garden duplex and two-bedroom floor-through that are to be our model sales units come autumn, as well as a studio and one-bedroom penthouse duplex. We took a look at the bathroom that cmu had advised us (during design) to move from next to the kitchen to next to the first floor bedroom, and the washer/dryer that huntgrunt had suggested we move away from the master bedroom. We debated the south views versus the north views. We talked about dog policies and pricing the terraces. Walking around with floor plans and looking at bare studs can be a challenging exercise in abstract visualization, but everyone took an active interest. We had fun and hope the tourists did as well.

Coming soon: keep your eye on our sidewalk shed…

  1. Alison and David: Thanks for the tour, and good luck on the marketing. I thought several of the apartments were well laid out (though you know I don’t agree with the current trend of say having 2 baths in a 1-bed split level and in general, allotting too much space to baths at the expense of multi-purpose nooks.)

    And, in spite of some nay-sayers, thanks for keeping up with the blog, it’s a lot of work I’m sure. I certainly have gleaned a lot of arcane information about construction which I would not have otherwise.
