High End Blues: E. Village Townhouse
A: Its been a while since I posted on the High End Blues hitting NYC real estate, so here is one that might be of interest for those in the market to buy a townhouse. This Single-Family Townhouse is located on 64 East 7th Street and has been asking $7.9M since first being listed on 3/14/2006. With a recent reduction of $2M, investors/developers might want to keep an eye on this one as it looks like the seller still might be searching for a bottom!
