Bushwick Apartment Roundup 12/3/08

$2300-2500 — lofts: Some huge, beautiful, well-appointed apartments available here — loft living without the slob aspect. The Bushwick side of Flushing has the more “grown-up” conversions. And props to the agent for saying it’s near East Williamsburg instead of in it.
Troutman and St. Nicholas(?) | street view | Jefferson L
$1600 — 2br/2ba: One of seven apartments in Bushwick with more than one bathroom! But seriously, that’s rare, and it has a dishwasher. Location isn’t terrible either — only a couple blocks from Caffe Europa, with the best espresso in NYC.
PETS OK | Himrod and Knickerbocker | street view | DeKalb L/Central M
$1350 — 1br: This location (not bad, just not the best) wouldn’t normally warrant this price but there’s a lot of square footage here — 850 is big (measure it). The bit of the bathroom we can see looks kind of kooky but the place overall seems decent. And it’s a block from Mr. Kiwi’s for some of your organical needs.
PETS OK | Bushwick and Myrtle | street view | Myrtle JMZ
$1300 — 2br: Inexpensive and decent, if not in the most prime area.
PETS OK | Wilson and Cooper | street view | Wilson L
$1200 — 2br: Even cheaper! Also at the end of the world, though. Decent renovation.
PETS OK | Decatur and Wilson | street view | Wilson L

Himrod & Knickerbocker is really bad crime-wise. There’ve been a bunch of burglaries on that strip of Himrod in the last few months.

No props to the agent for using a term to describe a neighborhood that has never existed and was created by people like herself.

There have been a bunch of burglaries and attempted burglaries on every block over the course of months. Himrod is not some special vortex of crime.

Himrod blows.

Wow. That Decatur and Wilson was listed 2 months ago when we moved into our place. I guess no one wants to live at the edge of the world. hehe.
