those Rockaway apts are GORGEOUS (at least in picture) but too far away from everything for me....Westchester is closer to where I live now than Rockaway is Chat Icon


Park Slope girls we should have a mini gtg. I need more friends here Chat Icon


I think they are going to be too far south for me also- I used to live in LB and I loved it- but it took 20 minutes just to get to the highway

I think I would rather spend my money on a house in westchester and get to work in 40 minutes- rather the a hour and 40 minutes (until they build the new subway station- but who has time to wait for that)

I really want to move there- but I am concerned about the job market

my brothers wife can't seem to find a decent job and with Jake in comission only sales- me having a decent job is very important

so it's on hold for now- my Dad is so upset

We recently bought a co-op on the cusp of brooklyn heights/downtown brooklyn. We got a great deal and our maintenance is not that bad. It includes taxes, electric, heat/AC, hot water, plus salaries for building workers. We also get a great discounted cable package from Time Warner.

I love where we live and would be miserable moving back into the suburbs (where i grew up!). We looked for about 8 months before we finally made an offer on a place. It was a rough time!

Good luck :)

We are so close!! Union & 5th. DH and I feel the same way, we can't wait to have a baby...though the irony is, once our kid starts getting big, we'll have to move out of the neighborhood!
