"Really nice" ... but still between Ave. C & Ave. D for "ONLY" $6.5 million! The real estate business truly does count on a sucker being born every minute.
ReplyDeleteI actually thought the price was going to be higher. If this townhome was in the west village, it would easily go for over 10 million. I happen to live on this very street and pass it each day. I always wanted to know what it looked like it inside. Now, I know. Beautiful and renovated. Just a little out of my price range :(
ReplyDeleteWhy do they have to fuck around "improving" the interiors of gorgeous old buildings? You want a modern loft? Then fucking BUY one!
ReplyDeleteNot my taste, the owner remade a 1800's townhouse into a commercial loft looking building.
ReplyDeleteI've always dreamed of living on that block, in one of these old buildings that back up to the Green Oasis garden. Let me just go buy a lotto ticket...
ReplyDeleteI love those floors.
ReplyDeleteThe floors are the only original. They gutted everything else. This must have been a beauty back in its day.
ReplyDeleteThey left the floors, though! Those floors really make me feel some kind of way.
ReplyDeleteTough room. This is freaking gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteand I lost my winning lottery tix when I didn't buy a rectory on West End Ave in the mid 70's in 1962 for 19,500.....:( :( :( Hindsight is always improved on Monday morning...
