The Richard Meier-designed condo On Prospect Park is now 50 percent sold, according to the project’s lead broker. Other fun tidbits: There are currently 24 families living in the building; sales in the last month have been “spectacular” after a protracted dry spell; there is only one unit still for sale at the “limited availability pricing” launched a few months ago; and following a recent reconfiguration of the penthouses, there are a total of 96 units in the building, which makes it quite a bit smaller, inventory-wise, than the 114 it launched with. Also, there are no plans to cut prices anytime soon, though the listings are “somewhat” negotiable. Corcoran’s listing page for the condo shows prices ranging from $755,000 for a 962-sf 1-bed to $3,100,000 for a 3,199-sf 4-bed.

No comment on overall price, but I don’t see how a gym membership which would otherwise cost 80 a month makes 1400 monthly maintenance particularly sweet. Seems like nonsense.
” Fannie and Freddie’s conforming loan limit is below the cheapest place in that building…”
Snapshot. Cameras still rolling.
“…the maintenance was high though, something like $1400 for a two bedroom…”
$1,400/mo and rising. JUST MAINTENANCE.
“Lechacal– I think you’re half right.”
havelc – you’re half drunk, half high. Prices are going down, not up. That’s 100%.
“wonder if that 1400 comes with some ‘special services’ that can’t be listed on prospectus”
Friday night circle jerks (yeah, I must be ROTW!) to Beyonce videos.
“Eastern Athletic Club”
Great club until they removed the basketball court from Brooklyn Heights and chopped the one at OPP in half.

11217, are those full svc bldgs you’re referencing are coops where the maintenance includes the ppty tax, heat, hot water,….? at 1400, guess city didn’t give them an abatement
I go to Equinox which is one of the nicest gyms in Manhattan and has wall to wall eye candy and It costs me 120 a month. Come on 1400? Thats not the way you get rich
Bob:
Clearly some people think this is a worthwhile building (besides me) considering it was a winner of the 2009 Brooklyn Building Awards.

agreed brickoven. even with gym membership i think the maintenance is too high. IMHO there are too many negatives about this building – maintenance, some design choices making everything too washed over (everything was all white including kitchen, with blonde wood floors), the location for the price…
IMO more money than taste on the part of the buyers, but it’s their $$ and they’re the ones who have to live in that POS, so who cares?
There you go more4less, its “full service”. No Billy Joels here, all Frank Sinatra.
Well I pay $900 a year for a membership to NYSC, so if maintenance includes gym, that’s a great deal. Eastern Athletic is incredibly nice.
