"This is a really good deal - pics are coming, but this will be gone before they are loaded"
Really? Will you get off your lazy bottom and post pics before you cut the price again, or will you just be another typical broker expecting people to trek across town sight unseen to pay you 15% for a rental when you can't even get to posting pics? If you were an Ebay seller you'd go broke! Hope you starve...
Each of the four apartments per floor had a bedroom facing the street or the back yard, a living room/kitchen facing into the little courtyards on each side, and the baths in the narrow spine of the building facing the courtyards. The other back apartment, the C-line, has a shorter living room/kitchen because the stairs are in the spine on that side of the building.
This must have been a studio apt when first sold. Then someone put a wall to divide it up. No windows at all in a living room is not too common a layout.
In that kind of building the living room was also the kitchen. There's a window looking into the little courtyard. That was all that was required by the building code at the time, so that's all they did for that market.
I suppose it's possible that wall between main room and bedroom isn't original, but that'd be odd for the period.
This is bringing back all my tenement-life memories, and they ain't pretty.

Whew! Got that one off my chest;)
No windows in the living room? No wonder there are no pics.
He needs to bring a lamp!
What a disservice to the owner (assuming the owner is not blocking him from photographing). If I was this owner I'd sue for lost rent!
Yeah. Based on the floorplan, this is actually an apartment with a really huge kitchen and no living room.
Shut up. It's going to FLY off the shelf!
LOL ... yeah. 13 days and counting so far.
An apartment with no living room in Brooklyn is worth $1000/month, tops.
It appears to be #4D at http://www.streeteasy.com/nyc/building/904-union-street-brooklyn. A pretty standard 25'-wide tenement building that went co-op in 1982.

About as common a layout as there is in NYC.

Wow. The apartment has been on the market for at least 14 days. The broker says it'll be gone before pictures are loaded.
How long does it take to load pictures? Is he still getting the film developed?
