Discussion about
Been looking at some 1BR unrenovated units in Cobble Hill Towers, all overlook the BQE. They appear to be the only units in the development that the developer has not decided to renovate himself, which is a little suspicious in my opinion. I appreciate that this question will polarise but is there any price which justifies overlooking the BQE? Is there really a price for everything when we're talking about living next to the BQE?

i lived 1/2 block away from BQE on union. after 6 months, the windows sills looked dark gray though they were rarely open. everytime a truck passed by, the brownstone did a shimmy shake like you wouldn't believe.

on the other hand, you can get nice views when facing bqe and have plenty of uninterupted light. the location is fantastic as well.

Thanks AB ... agreed the location is fantastic, just a few blocks to the heart of Cobble Hill, but these ones literally overlook the BQE. Just not sure whether the units can be scooped up cheap enough to be able to sell at a price that will attract buyers post-renovation ....
