Manhattan Loft Guy

876 Broadway comes + goes QUICKLY / knowing what you can get, and getting all of it

Sep. 2, 2009
This "2,500 sq ft" loft on Broadway between 18th and 19th Streets has serious old-school Manhattan loft charm: pine columns, 14 ft ceilings, wainscoting (check the pix for the size of the windows!). These sellers include an architect and they have owned

2 tiny drops / 354 Broome Street #5G closes down 12%

There are 3 new Manhattan loft listings on Broome Street, from Greene to Elizabeth, 2 at $3.495mm (coincidence?), 1 at $2.2mm. Two feature multi-level space; two feature outdoor space; two feature three mints worth of renovation.

Categorized in: loft neighborhoods / NoHo
The Manhattan loft 2d floor at 710 Broadway is in its toddler stage, having passed its birthday a month ago. It took only 2 weeks off the market over the break of the year but is back today, at the slightly reduced price of $2.195mm. ... My guess is that

perseverance pays in contract at 514 Broadway

Dec. 18, 2007
Categorized in: Loft neighborhoods / SoHo
The Manhattan loft #3H at 514 Broadway was a fresh listing at Labor Day 2006, asking $2.3mm for “2,100 sq ft†in a 1 + 1 set-up (one bedroom, one bathroom), with mezzanine. The seller was motivated enough to drop the price to $2.2mm within 6 weeks, th

#4A sheds dollars, seeks buyer I mentioned #4A at 251 West 19 Street ("1,663 sq ft") when it was new two months ago (adding 4A to the mix at 251 W 19 St / help nudge 3C along?), which was just after... [Read More]

avoiding the anniversary sale at 514 Broadway – new price for 3H

Jul. 12, 2007
Categorized in: Loft neighborhoods / SoHo
why the market diss? Unless it sells by Labor Day, #3H at 514 Broadway will be entitled to a cake with one candle on it. Since the September 2006 price of $2.3mm, this “2,100 sq ft” 1... [Read More]

right buyer climbs up (and down) at 123 Prince, gets steamed

Jul. 5, 2007
Categorized in: Loft neighborhoods / SoHo
#1R at 123 Prince Street was marketed as “ideal live/work for the right buyer”, and that person has now come forward. In a world of too many “unique lofts” this one has an u... [Read More]
