Bushwick Apartment Roundup 7/2/08

$1848 — 2br loft: Is McKibbin growing up? I normally would ignore this building but come on, that apartment is fabulous. And how many buildings have yoga, karate, a cafe, and a speakeasy in them?

$1250 — 2br: A rowdy, central block of Bushwick, overlooking our awesome María Hernández Park. Close to everything great in Bushwick, period. Cheap as hell and probably stabilized. Jump on it.

$1450 — 2br: Looks like a high floor apartment in what I think is that blonde brick buildings on top of Alfie’s Deli, which probably means a real, original two-bedroom, not a railroad. Needs a paint job, but it’s close to the train and cheap.

$1475 — 3br: Wow, cheap. Wood floors, some details, okay renovation. This seems about $200 less than it should be for its area.

$1650 — 2br: Slick renovation of this place — to compete with the not-so-hot neighborhood I guess. Might have nice views of St. Barbara’s, which is a short block away. Everything in here is pretty nice except the tile in the fireplace, but whatever. Dishwasher!
PETS OK | Central and Menahan | street view | Gates JZ/Central M

Bushwick wannabe: I’m seeing a pattern here: if it’s a block or so from the JMZ hub, they’re calling it Bushwick even if it’s Bed-Stuy. Like this place. And this one. And this one. And this one! But unfortunately, once again, Stuyvesant is in Bedford-Stuyvesant.
