Recent Real Deal Coverage - Columbia Commons

Columbia Commons was featured in the March 1st edition of the Real Deal. As the press lags a little behind when referring to numbers - the reality is we only have two apartments left! Here is what they had to say yesterday in their "Development Updates" column:

Cobble Hill 

Columbia Commons 

110 Warren Street 

The new condo, a joint venture of L+M Development Partners and the Urban Investment Group at Goldman Sachs, is now 88 percent sold after hitting the market in May 2010. Five units of between 609 and 848 square feet now remain up for grabs, with prices ranging from $399,000 to $650,000. The two-building complex has a shared courtyard, roof deck, fitness room and underground parking garage. Halstead Property Development Marketing is the agent. Contact: www.columbiacommonsbk.com. 

Almost sold out at Columbia Commons means more time to Blog!

Hello Friends: 

Once again time has passed with all good intentions to update this blog more regularly - but alas the wide world of NYC real estate always comes first. I am very pleased to announce that we are down to our last two apartments at Columbia Commons located in the Columbia Street Waterfront District -  steps away from the new Brooklyn Bridge Park as well as Court and Smith Streets with all their fabulous retail and restaurants. Last week, I checked our Char 4 ( pic above) on Smith Street and found it's BBQ/Southern Style dishes very yummy - especially the corn flake encrusted crab cake! When you are in the neighborhood - check it out: http://www.charno4.com/v1/

Columbia Commons is more than 60% sold!

Where have I been - you may be asking yourself?

The answer- knee deep in sales at our development in the Columbia Street Waterfront District of Brooklyn. Since opening in mid May - we are now over 60 percent sold  - and closing in fast on 65%- which is a great pace for a new development in this market.

We have had a fabulous response to all aspects of CC. Buyers have fallen in love with our wide plank oak floors ( imported from Holland) and quartzite counter tops, as well as the thought out floor plans which allow for very usable square  footage and practically no wasted space. Even our counter tops are extended and left open underneath which makes them an option to eat around, and saves the need for a dining table.

Amenities include a common roof deck, fitness room, bike storage, parking, a virtual lobby attendant ,and a  landscaped courtyard with seating. Nearby trendy restaurants and shopping ( I am talking about you - new Barney's co-op!) have made this area - the "new hip place to call home" according to the NY Post.
