As discussed on Brooklynian, the Wall Street Journal just profiled Prospect Heights as having Slope Appeal With Edge:
“… Prospect Heights has developed a reputation as the Slope’s edgier cousin. And even after years of playing development catch-up to Park Slope, Prospect Heights still offers more inexpensive housing options.”
* The median list price is $549,000.
* The median size is 1,095 square feet.
Some negatives: the schools section is a bit outdated and random, making it sound like Prospect Heights has no school options.
They also highlight the Richard Meier condo at One Grand Army Plaza as “the most ambitious new residence in the neighborhood” and are rather polite about its 34% vacancy rate despite being on the market for years: “About 66% of the 96-unit building has been sold…”
BONUS: The ultimate argument settler – WSJ calls the boundaries of Prospect Heights. Flatbush to Washington, and Eastern Parkway to Atlantic Avenue. That’s reasonable, right?
