Manhattan loft open houses / on the avenue, Fifth Avenue

 
(remember to check the agentwebsites Sunday morning to see if open house is stillon)
 
$3.6mm and $2,237/mo for 3″,000 sq ft” (in anunusual “L” layout) with the magic words “sun flooded” and“authentic New York loft”; this one gets ‘outside’ income from twoground floor commercial tenants, so the lawyers will be seriousabout the bona fides of their IRS status; see my January 16 nugget (IRSrules for coops / beware the 80/20 rule)
onthe market since May
Open House Sunday Sept 161 PM 2:30
 
$3.25mm and $4,278/mo for a bunchof space (2,000 – 2,500 sq ft?? I hatecoy) and a terrace of “2,200 sq ft”; Iaddressed it when it came back to the market in August inindoors and out at 284 Fifth’s PH-B / (almost) brand new, where I provided links to Bellmarc(above) and PruDE for this co-exclusive and described itshistory
onthe market since May (though it took most of the summer off themarket)
Open House Sunday Sept 1612 PM – 2
 
$1.195mm and $2,181/mo for “1,500 sq ft” of shyloft set up as a conventional 2 BR + 2 bath apartment; thisis a loft building (a former department storespace, high ceilings, big windows) but the word “loft” appears inthis listing only once (referring to a “perfect storage loft”) andthe pictures seem almost deliberately (perversely) cropped to avoidgiving a sense of the high ceilings, so if you go maybe you shouldcall it an “apartment”
onthe market 4 weeks
Open House Sunday Sept 163 PM 4:30
 
$695k and $787/mo for “744 sq ft” that is notafraid to claim the “L” word (or to claim “multi-functionalmasterpiece”, but I forgive that because of “loft”); not clear ifthe 744 sq ft is just the foot print or includes the lofted openbedroom up the spiral staircase; this thing has been designed andtricked out within an inch of its life (including an exposed I-beamthat screams “loft”)
onthe market 2 months
Open House Sunday Sept 16 is byappointment only
