Second Ave Subway premium

There are a few existing threads on this topic ... use "search discussions" over there on the right.

"over there on the right "

lol

Any premium is dependant on when you think it will be completed.

What about the "SUBWAY CONSTRUCTION DISCOUNT" for buying there today?

"Any premium is dependant on when you think it will be completed."

this, and also, people seem to willfully ignore the simple truth that what makes east of 3rd cheaper than west of 3rd has little to do with subway access. or public school zoning, for that matter. there is nothing that could ever be built east of 3rd that would make it comparable, short or razing everything and replanning/rebuilding that entire area as a residential domain of the fancy class.

York and East End have virtues of their own.

lucillebluth: 10 Gracie Square? 120 East End?

mote561: "Premium" might be a little strong, but better access to public transportation will certainly be a plus for the neighborhood.

alright, with the details. as soon as hit reply i knew someone would bring up east end.

The OP refers specifically to "east of York Ave." I think that makes East End Avenue a bit more than a nit-pick. It's the heart of the discussion, along with some excellent side-street coops and a lot of good townhouse stock.

lots of good townhouse stock...couple more beauties being redone right now.

op also refers to the mythical sunway, which i've heard is slang for prescription happy doctors who have replaced the respectable street drug dealing mom&pop shops of yore. so you're saying the second ave line will create a premium. cool.

marco_m - can you list a few virtues of east of York/east end area? Visited first time a few days ago and only thing that stood out is it took 15 mins from the subway.

Carl Schurz park is very nice. Yorkville has its own scene. I think its like small town America in the UES. Its very relaxing.

lots of 2nd ave stuff on the market that comes with the 5-6 year mess.

2nd ave is messy. even when its built I think youd rather live an aveneue off the subway line just to avoid foot traffic.
